Human alveolar progenitors generate dual lineage bronchioalveolar organoids

ABSTRACT: Mechanisms of epithelial renewal in the alveolar compartment remain incompletely understood. To this end, we aimed to characterize alveolar progenitors. Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) analysis of the HTII-280 positive and HTII-280+ /EpCAM+populations from total 6 donors from periferal tissue was performed, and analysis revealed subclusters enriched for stem cell signature genes. We found that these alveolar progenitors in organoid culture in vitro show phenotypic lineage plasticity as they can yield alveolar or bronchial cell type progeny. The direction of the differentiation is dependent on the presence of the GSK-3β inhibitor, CHIR99021. By RNA-seq analysis of GSK-3 βknockdown organoids, we identify additional functional candidate target genes and pathways which contribute to alveolar differentiation independent of Wnt signaling

GSK-3β inhibition promotes engraftment of ex vivo expanded hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) has been recently identified as an important regulator of stem cell function. In vitro studies show that GSK-3β inhibition delays proliferation of human haematopoietic progenitor cells while increasing numbers of late dividing multipotent progenitors. Gene expression analysis revealed that GSK-3β inhibition modulates the expression of a subset of genes that are transcriptional targets for cytokines. GSK-3β inhibition antagonised down-regulation of genes encoding cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor p57 and a member of the growth arrest and DNA damage 45 family, GADD45B as well as up-regulation of cyclin D1 by cytokines, providing a possible mechanism for the BIO-induced delay in cell cycle progression. Surprisingly, inhibition of GSK-3β earlier shown to prevent β-catenin degradation and promote the nuclear accumulation of β-catenin was not sufficient to activate its transcriptional targets in haematopoietic stem cells. GSK-3β inhibition up-regulated the expression of a several positive regulators of stem cell function suppressed during cytokine-induced proliferation. The data supports a clinical role for GSK-3β inhibition to improve engraftment efficiency of ex vivo expanded stem cells.

Bulk transcriptomic profiling of pluripotent stem cell-derived alveolar type 2 cells (iAT2s) cultured in spheres and at air-liquid interface and human HTII-280-sorted AT2s from a pediatric and adult donor lungs cultured in spheres

Project description:We performed bulk transcriptomic profiling of pluripotent stem cell-derived alveolar type 2 cells (iAT2s) and HTII-280-sorted human AT2s cultured with CK+DCI media. We used previously described distal lung directed differentiation protocol to generate alveolar type 2 cells (iAT2s). We used the SPC2-ST-B2 (“SPC2”) line containing a SFTPC-tdTomato knock in reporter. iAT2s were cultured in 3D spheres and at air-liquid interface. Human AT2s were HTII-280-sorted from a pediatric donor lung (13 months old) and an adult, nonsmoker human lung (32 years old) and cultured as spheres in the presence of MRC5s. After deconvolution, we find that iAT2s cultured in ALI correlate more closely to primary cultured AT2s than do iAT2s cultured in 3D spheres on the basis of lung epithelial gene expression.

Massive Expansion of Functional Human iPSC-derived Cardiomyocytes by Concomitant Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Beta Inhibition and Removal of Cell-Cell Contact

Project description:Modulating signaling pathways including Wnt and Hippo can induce cardiomyocyte proliferation in vivo. Applying these signaling modulators to human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) in vitro can expand CMs only to modest extent (< 5-fold). Here, we demonstrate massive expansion of hiPSC-CMs in vitro (i.e. 100-250-fold) by glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) inhibition using CHIR99021 and concurrent removal of cell-cell contact. We show GSK-3β inhibition suppresses CM maturation while contact removal prevents CMs from cell cycle exit. Remarkably, contact removal enabled 10-to-25-times greater expansion beyond GSK-3β inhibition alone. Mechanistically, cell cycle re-activation required both LEF/TCF activity and AKT phosphorylation, but it was independent from Yes associated protein (YAP) activity. Engineered heart tissues from expanded hiPSC-CMs showed the comparable contractility to those from unexpanded hiPSC-CMs, demonstrating uncompromised cellular functionality after expansion. In sum, we uncovered a molecular interplay that enables massive expansion hiPSC-CMs for large-scale drug screening and tissue engineering.

Time series single-cell transcriptomic analysis of AEC2 directed differentiation

Project description:We perform time-series global transcriptomic profiling of a directed differentiation protocol for generating alveolar epithelial type II cells (AEC2s) from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). We analyzed 3 different timepoints in the RUES2 differentiation: 1) Day 0 undifferentiated cells, 2) Day 15 lung progenitors highly enriched in NKX2-1+ cells by CD47hi/CD26lo sorting, and 3) the outgrowth of these purified progenitors in 3D culture sorted again on Day 35 based on SFTPCtdTomato+ and SFTPCtdTomato- gating. For comparison to primary cells, we simultaneously sequenced RNA from purified primary fetal (21 week gestation) distal alveolar epithelial progenitors and purified adult human (HTII-280 sorted) AEC2s. In order to evaluate the effect of cell culture on primary fetal alveolar cells, parallel aliquots of the fetal cells were also exposed to 4 days of culture in DCI media. We find that AEC2 maturation involves downregulation of Wnt signaling activity, and that the highest differentially expressed transcripts in iPSC-derived AEC2s encode genes associated with lamellar body and surfactant biogenesis.
