Replating of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Derived Cardiomyocytes Induces a Shift in Myosin Heavy Chain Expression and Changes in Contractile Function

ABSTRACT: Human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hESC-CMs) and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) grown for 35 days on laminin-coated coverslips, a stiff matrix, were enzymatically dissociated, replated on laminin-coated coverslips and grown for further 2 days. Gene expression was compared with controls grown for 37 days on laminin-coated coverslips. Total RNA was isolated and gene expression was analyzed by RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) on an Illumina NextSeq 550 sequencer using a High Output Flowcell for single reads (20024906; Illumina). Gene enrichment analysis based on RNA-Seq data of hESC-CMs replated for 2 days as compared with 37 days old controls was performed by using the comprehensive gene set enrichment analysis tool Enrichr for pathway analysis with KEGG Pathways 2019 Human, as well as for Gene Ontology (GO) analysis with GO Cellular Component 2018, GO Molecular Function 2018, and GO Biological Process 2018. Gene enrichment was also analyzed by Ingenuity Pathway analysis (IPA, Qiagen), especially Canonical Pathways analysis. Gene enrichment analysis revealed changes in the gene expression profile, especially of mechanosensation/-transduction-related genes and pathways in replated hESC-CMs.

Project description:Trophoblast is the primary epithelial cell type in the placenta, a transient organ required for proper fetal growth and development. We have identified a CDX2+/p63+ cytotrophoblast (CTB) subpopulation in the early post-implantation human placenta, which is significantly reduced later in gestation. CTB differentiate into different trophoblast subtypes, which are responsible for gas/nutrient exchange (syncytiotrophoblast/STB) and invasion and maternal vascular remodeling (extravillous trophoblast/EVT). Study of early human placental development is severely hampered by lack of a representative trophoblast stem cell (TSC) model, with the capacity for self-renewal and the ability to differentiate into both STB and EVT. We describe a reproducible protocol, using defined media containing BMP4, by which human embryonic stem cells (hESC) can be differentiated into CDX2+/p63+ CTB-like cells. These cells can be replated to further differentiate into STB- and EVT-like cells, based on marker expression, hormone secretion and invasive ability. Differentiation of hPSC-derived CTB in hypoxia leads to reduced hCG secretion and STB-associated gene expression, instead inducing EVT differentiation in a hypoxia-inducible factor-dependent manner. Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) (WA09/H9) were maintained on Geltrex-coated plates (BD Biosciences ) in StemPro (Thermo Fisher) + bFGF (12 ng/ml). Undifferentiated hESC (D-2) were switched to minimal media (EMIM (Erb et al., 2011) containing KO DMEM/F12 (Gibco), 1% Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium Mix (Sigma-Aldrich), 1% NEAA (Gibco), 2mM L-Glutamine (Corning), 0.1mM 2-mercaptoethanol (Gibo), and 2% BSA (Gemini Bio Products)) for 2 days then treated with BMP4 (StemRD, 10ng/ml) for 3 days in minimal media+BMP4 (D3). At D3, cells were replated onto Geltrex in Feeder Conditioned Media +BMP4 and cultured in normoxia (20% O2) or hypoxia (2% O2) for 2 days (D3+2) to assess the effect of hypoxia. Cells were infected with lentiviral shRNA for shScramble (control) or shARNT, the beta subunit of the Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) complex to assess the effect of ARNT knockdown. Each sample includes biological triplicates.
