Gene expression profiles in human iPS cells cultured by different four methods


ABSTRACT: Hepatocyte-like cells differentiated from human iPS cells are expected to be utilized in pharmaceutical research and regenerative medicine. Recently, various culture methods for human iPS cell maintenance have been developed. However, it is not well known whether human iPS cell maintenance method affects hepatic differentiation potency. In this study, we cultured human iPS cells using four maintenance methods: ReproStem medium with feeder cells (mouse embryonic fibroblasts), AK02N medium with iMatrix-511 (E8 fragments of laminin511), Essential 8 medium with Vitronectin N (N-terminal domain of vitronectin), TeSR-E8 medium with Vitronectin XF (xeno-free vitronectin). Then, these human iPS cells were differentiated into the hepatocyte-like cells. Interestingly, the gene expression levels of definitive endoderm markers in the definitive endoderm cells generated from human iPS cells cultured with ReproStem or TeSR-E8 medium were higher than those in other groups. The gene expression level of foregut marker, HHEX, in the definitive endoderm cells generated from human iPS cells cultured with ReproStem medium was higher than that in other groups. Consistently, the expression levels of hepatocyte markers, albumin and urea secretion capacity, and CYP3A4 activity in the hepatocyte-like cells generated from human iPS cells cultured with ReproStem medium were higher than those in other groups. Our data indicated that the most suitable human iPS cell maintenance method for efficient hepatic differentiation was the on-feeder method which uses mouse embryonic fibroblasts, but not feeder-free methods. In conclusion, human iPS cell maintenance method largely affects hepatic differentiation potency.
