RNA-seq of CN, CN/AML, and CN/AML BAALC KO iPSCs-derived HSPCs

ABSTRACT: Severe congenital neutropenia (CN) is a pre-leukemia syndrome that, in the majority of patients, is caused by heterogeneous ELANE mutations encoding neutrophil elastase (NE). To study leukemogenesis associated with CN we generated CN and CN/AML patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Additional mutations in leukemia-relevant genes, CSF3R and RUNX1, were introduced using CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing. Consequently, we performed in vitro embryoid body (EB)-based hematopoietic and myeloid differentiation of generated iPSC lines. On day 14-17 of EB-based differentiation, iPSC-derived CD45+CD34+ cells were harvested and mRNA was isolated using RNeasy Mini- or Micro Kit (Qiagen). Sequencing libraries were prepared using the TruSeq RNA Sample Prep Kit (Illumina). Poly (A) selected single-read and pair-read sequencing libraries were sequenced on the Illumina platform in order to compare the transcriptomes of CN and CN/AML iPSCs-derived HSPCs from 2 CN/AML patients. Next, we identified that BAALC knockout resulted in a dramatic induction of granulocytic differentiation and a significant reduction in proliferation of CN/AML iPSC-derived HSPCs. To identify BAALC-dependent leukemia-associated gene expression, we compared the transcriptomes of CN/AML iPSCs before and after BAALC KO using a similar approach described above for CN and CN/AML iPSCs-derived HSPCs.

Project description:Purpose: We designed this study to evaluate the feasibility of using only one factor to respecify human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)-derived blood cells into long-term engraftable hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). We also parallelly compared iPSC-derived HSPCs (iHSPCs) with primary HSPCs under the same induction and transplantation condition in order to examine the functional equivalency between iHSPCs and bona fide HSPCs. Methods: In vitro derived human iPSC-HSPCs are induced with or without (w/o) doxycycline for the expression of MLL-AF4. In vivo derived bone marrow cells are harvested and FACS-sorted for human populations from primary transplants over nine to sixteen weeks after transplantation. Either iPSC-HSPCs or primary HSPCs, both of which are induced by MLL-AF4, is used for the transplantation experiments. iPSCs are either derived from peripheral blood mobilized CD34+ HSPCs (CD34-iPSC) or mononuclear cells (MN-iPSCs). Normal human CD34+ HSPCs and mononuclear cells are set as control groups. Results: MLL-AF4 can impart HSC and lymphoid potential to iPSC-derived blood cells in vitro, and induction of MLL-AF4 leads to the cellular identity transition from common myeloid progenitors to hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. MLL-AF4 alone is sufficient to realize the potent engraftment of induced HSPCs (iHSPCs) from iPSCs, and multilineage and long-term hematopoiesis could be observed. Primary HSPCs with the induction of MLL-AF4 could gain significantly enhanced engraftability. During the long-term engraftment period, leukemic mutations with a bias to B-cell leukemia could be found in the iHSPCs and their derivatives. By contrast, MLL-AF4 induced primary HSPCs maintain the normal hematopoiesis without leukemic transformation. Conclusions: Our study has demonstrated for the first time, to our knowledge, that the pluripotency-dependent conversion of somatic cells to long-term engraftable HSPCs can be achieved by using a single factor in a non-integrative way. This study also suggests that iPSC-derived HSPCs are more prone to leukemic mutations during the long-term engraftment period, which provides a necessary caveat of using them in the actual therapies.
