A computer-guided design tool to increase the efficiency of cellular conversions

ABSTRACT: Here we introduce a computer-guided design tool that combines a computational framework for prioritizing more efficient combinations of instructive factors (IFs) of cellular conversions, called IRENE, with a transposon-based genomic integration system for efficient delivery. Particularly, IRENE relies on a stochastic gene regulatory network model that systematically prioritizes more efficient IFs by maximizing the agreement of the transcriptional and epigenetic landscapes between the converted and target cells. Our predictions substantially increased the efficiency of two established iPSC-differentiation protocols (natural killer cells and melanocytes) and established the first protocol for iPSC-derived mammary epithelial cells with high efficiency.

SMAD2/3 potentiate cell identity conversions with master transcription factors

Project description:The exogenous expression of master transcription factors (TFs) is a powerful and exciting approach to convert cellular identity. Yet, the generation of desired cell types is often plagued by inefficiency, slow kinetics and inability to produce mature cell types. Through investigations of the molecular mechanisms of induced plurpipotent stem cell generation, we discovered that expression of constitutively active Smad2/3 (Smad2CA/3CA), together with the Yamanaka factors, could dramatically improve the efficiency and kinetics of reprogramming. Mechanistically, SMAD3 interacted with both co-activators and reprogramming factors, bridging their interaction during reprogramming. Fascinatingly, SMAD2/3 interact with a multitude of master TFs in different cell types, and conversions of B cells to macrophages, myoblasts to adipocytes, and human fibroblasts to neurons were also markedly enhanced when their master TFs were co-expressed with Smad3CA. These results revealed the existence of shared molecular mechanisms underlying diverse TF-mediated cellular conversions, and demonstrated SMAD2/3 as a widely applicable booster.

RNA-Seq data from dairy sheep milk samples divergent for feed efficience

Project description:The knowledge of the genetic architecture behind feed efficiency would allow to breed more efficient animals maximizing farm profitability and reducing the environmental impact of animal production. This study analyzes high throughput gene expression data from milk samples to determine key genes and biological mechanisms associated to feed efficiency in dairy sheep.A detailed description of the sheep management practices and calculations for the feed efficiency index (FEI) are detailed in 10.3168/jds.2020-19061. For these analyses, we selected animals with divergent FEI values from a group of 40 lactating Assaf ewes. RNA-Seq was performed on milk somatic cell samples from 8 high feed efficiency sheep (H-FE), FEI = −0.29 (SD = 0.23), RFI = −0.16 (SD = 0.25), and 8 low feed efficiency sheep (L-FE), FEI = 0.81 (SD = 0.24), RFI = 0.19 (SD = 0.24)).

Dissecting engineered cell types and enhancing cell fate conversion via CellNet

Project description:Engineering clinically relevant cells in vitro holds promise for regenerative medicine, but most protocols fail to faithfully recapitulate target cell properties. To address this, we developed CellNet, a network biology platform that determines whether engineered cells are equivalent to their target tissues, diagnoses aberrant gene regulatory networks, and prioritizes candidate transcriptional regulators to enhance engineered conversions. Using CellNet, we improved B cell to macrophage conversion, transcriptionally and functionally, by knocking down predicted B cell regulators. Analyzing conversion of fibroblasts to induced hepatocytes (iHeps), CellNet revealed an unexpected intestinal program regulated by the master regulator Cdx2. We observed functional engraftment of mouse colon by iHeps, thereby establishing their broader potential as endoderm progenitors and demonstrating direct conversion of fibroblasts into intestinal epithelium. Our studies illustrate how CellNet can be employed to improve direct conversion and to uncover unappreciated properties of engineered cells. 15 samples

Genome wide analysis of human iPS cell lines generated with non-integrative plasmids and knock-down of P53 gene

Genome wide analysis of human iPS cell lines generated with non-integrative plasmids and knock-down of P53 gene

Project description:The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of transient knock down of P53 as a tool to increase the efficiency of a non-integrative methodology for reprogramming adult human normal dermal fibroblasts. This study demonstrate that transient knockdown of P53 is an efficient way to produce iPSC containing minimal genomic alterations, which meets the increased demand for iPSC in personalized drug screening campaigns. Total RNA was isolated from 3 iPS cell lines generated without P53 knockdown and 3 generated with P53 knockdown. In addition total RNA was isolated from the parental normal human dermal fibroblasts and from a reference human iPS cell line from Systembio (SBI).

Optimized Approaches for Generation of Integration-free iPSCs from Human Urine-derived Cells with Small Molecules and Autologous Feeder

Project description:We generated iPSCs from human urine cells (hUCs) with the aid of small molecules and autologous hUC feeders. A compound cocktail including Cyclic Pifithrin-a, a p53 inhibitor and other compounds known for benefiting reprogramming like A-83-01, CHIR99021, Thiazovivin, NaB and PD0325901 was used to aid hUC reprogramming (Plan B). Aided by this cocktail, we achieved significantly improved efficiency (170 folds more) for hUC reprogramming and iPSC generation. In addition, to enable iPSC generation in some cases that massive cell death occurred during delivering reprogramming factors, we replaced Matrigel with autologous hUCs as feeder for reprogramming and iPSC generation (Plan C). Replacing Matrigel with autologous feeder not only enhanced reprograming, but also avoided concern using animal components for human iPSC generation. These were efficient approaches to enable iPSC generation from hUCs that were otherwise difficult for reprogramming, which would be valuable for banking patient’s specific iPSCs.

Nanog Independent Reprogramming to iPSCs with Canonical Factors

Project description:It has been suggested that the transcription factor Nanog is essential for the establishment of pluripotency during the derivation of embryonic stem (ES) cells and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. However, successful reprogramming to pluripotency with a growing list of divergent transcription factors, at ever increasing efficiencies, suggests that there may be many distinct routes to a pluripotent state. Here, we have investigated whether Nanog is necessary for reprogramming murine fibroblasts under highly efficient conditions using the canonical reprogramming factors Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and cMyc. In agreement with prior results, the efficiency of reprogramming Nanog-/- fibroblasts was significantly lower than that of control fibroblasts. However, in contrast to previous findings, we were able to reproducibly generate iPS cells from Nanog-/- fibroblasts that effectively contributed to chimeric mice. Thus while Nanog may be an important mediator of reprogramming it is not required for establishing pluripotency in the mouse, even under standard conditions. In order to further evaluate the equivalency of Nanog null iPSC to nanog null ESCs, we have performed RNAseq on two independent nanog null iPSC lines, as well as Nanog Null ESC, WT ESC and iPSCs as well as MEFs. As a negativve control for reprogramming we have analyzed a partially reprogrammed iPSC line. 2-4 biological replicates each of 7 conditions (WT MEFs, WT ESC, WT iPSC, WT partially reprogrammed iPSC (piPS), Nanog null ESC, Nanog null iPSC clone G2 and Nanog null iPSC clone G5)
