Project description:We report the application of single-cell ATAC-seq to reconstruct the epigenetic program and identify key transcription factors and cis-regulatory elements associated with the epithelial and mesenchymal heterogeneity and G9a inhibition in cultured male germline stem cells (GSCs). First, we identified epithelial-like and mesenchymal-like clusters in the sample. Pseudotime trajectory also indicated that GSCs could undergo EMT-like process with unique regulators in different stages. Lastly, we showed that G9a inhibition could suppress the EMT-like process in GSCs.

Project description:The objective of this study was to reprogram peripheral blood-derived late-endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) to a pluripotent state under feeder-free and defined culture conditions. Late-EPCs were retrovirally-transduced with OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, c-MYC, and iPSC colonies were derived in feeder-free and defined media conditions. EPC-iPSCs expressed pluripotent markers, were capable of differentiating to cells from all three germ-layers, and retained a normal karyotype. Transcriptome analyses demonstrated that EPC-iPSCs exhibit a global gene expression profile similar to human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We have generated iPSCs from late-EPCs under feeder-free conditions. Thus, peripheral blood-derived late-outgrowth EPCs represent an alternative cell source for generating iPSCs.

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been generated from various somatic cells under feeder-layer conditions. These feeder-derived iPSCs generated in different labs exhibit greater variability than between different traditional embryo derived hESC lines. For that reason, it is important to develop a standard and defined system for deriving autologous patient stem cells. We have generated iPSCs under feeder-free conditions using Matrigel coated vessels in chemically defined medium, mTeSR1. These feeder-free derived iPSCs are in many ways similar to feeder-derived iPSCs and also to hESCs, with respect to their pluripotent gene expression (OCT4, NANOG, SOX2), protein expression (OCT4, NANOG, SSEA4, TRA160) and differentiation capabilities. We conducted a whole genomic transcript analysis using Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays to elucidate the important differences between traditional feeder-derived iPSCs and feeder-free derived iPSCs. We reveal that feeder-free iPSCs have over-represented terms belonging to DNA replication and cell cycle genes which are lacking in feeder-derived iPSCs. Feeder-free iPSCs are in many aspects more similar to hESCs including; apoptosis, chromatin modification enzymes and mitochondrial energy metabolism. We have also identified potential biomarkers for fully reprogrammed iPSCs (FRZB) and partially reprogrammed iPSCs (POTEG, MX2) based on their expression trends across all cell types. In conclusion, feeder-free derived iPSCs is transcriptomically more similar to hESCs than feeder derived iPSCs, in many biological functions.

Project description:The self-renewal and differentiation capacities of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) make them good sources of cells for cell transplantation therapy, drug development, and studies of cellular differentiation and development. However, the large numbers of cells necessary for many of these applications require extensive expansion of hPSC cultures, a process that has been associated with genetic and epigenetic alterations. We have performed a combinatorial study on both hESCs and hiPSCs to compare the effects of enzymatic vs. mechanical passaging, and feeder-free vs. mouse embryonic fibroblast feeder substrate, to on the genetic and epigenetic stability and the phenotypic characteristics of hPSCs. In extensive experiments in hEScs involving over 100 continuous passages, , we observed that both enzymatic passaging and feeder-free culture were associated with genetic instability, higher cell proliferation, and persistence of OCT4-positive cells in teratomas, with enzymatic passaging having the stronger effect. In all combinations of culture conditions except for mechanical passaging on feeder layers, we noted recurrent deletions in the genomic region containing the tumor suppressor gene TP53, which was associated with decreased mRNA expression of TP53, as well as alterations in the expression of several downstream genes consistent with a decrease in the activity of the TP53 pathway. Among the hESC cultures, we also observedculture-dependent variations in global gene expression and DNA methylation. Verification of the negative effects of enzymatic passaging and feeder-free conditions was performed in hiPSC cultures. Our results highlight the need for careful assessment of effects of culture conditions on cells intended for clinical therapies.

Project description:In this study, we developed a feeder-, serum-, and animal product-free culture condition, and successfully induced high percentage of SLCs from human PSCs. Genome-wide expression analyses demonstrated a significant upregulation of germ cell specific genes in SLCs derived from PSCs compared to in vivo isolated human CD90+ SSCs. And furthermore, under this optimized feeder-free condition SLCs have went through meiosis and formed putative round spermatids. Our data demonstrated a robust feeder-, serum- and xeno-free protocol to induce differentiation of PSCs to SLCs from which putative haploid spermatids may develop.

Project description:Background: The hES-T3 cell line with normal female karyotype was used to differentiate into autogeneic fibroblast-like cells (T3HDF) as feeder to support the undifferentiated growth of hES-T3 cells (T3/HDF) for 14 passages. A feeder-free culture on Matrigel in hES medium conditioned by these autogeneic feeder cells (T3HDF) was established to maintain the undifferentiated growth of hES-T3 cells (T3/CMHDF) for 8 passages. Results: The gene expression profiles of mRNAs, microRNAs and proteins between the undifferentiated T3/HDF and T3/CMHDF cells were shown to be very similar, and their expression profiles were also found to be similar to those of T3/MEF and T3/CMMEF cells grown on MEF feeder and feeder-free Matrigel in MEF-conditioned medium, respectively. The abundantly expressed genes of T3/HDF, T3/CMHDF, T3/MEF and T3/CMMEF cells were found to play prominent roles in signaling pathways and GO process networks. The miR-302/367 cluster and miR-371/372/373 cluster were extremely abundantly expressed in undifferentiated T3/HDF and T3/CMHDF as well as T3/MEF andT3/CMMEF cells. The undifferentiated state of T3/HDF and T3/CMHDF cells was evidenced by the very high expression levels of ¡§stemness¡¨ genes and low expression levels of differentiation markers of ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm in addition to the strong staining of OCT4 and NANOG. Conclusion: The T3HDF feeder and T3HDF-conditioned medium were able to support the undifferentiated growth of hES cells, and they would be useful for drug development and toxicity testing in addition to the reduced risks of xenogeneic pathogens when used for medical applications such as cell therapies. Keywords: genetic modification In this investigation, both miRNA and mRNA expression profiles from human embryonic stem cells (hES-T3) grown on MEF feeder (T3_MEF), feeder-free Matrigel in MEF-conditioned medium (T3_CMMEF), T3HDF (hES-T3 differentiated fibroblast-like cells) feeder and feeder-free Matrigel in T3HDF-conditioned medium were quantitatively determined. Several target genes of T3BA and T3CM cells-specific miRNAs were identified. ***This submission represents the mRNA expression component of the study only***
