Project description:Anterior foregut endoderm (AFE) gives rise to many tissue types of interest for therapeutic research including the esophagus, salivary glands, lung, thymus, parathyroid and thyroid. Despite its importance, only few reports describe the generation of AFE from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) by directed differentiation. Here, we describe a novel protocol to derive a subdomain of AFE, identified by expression of Pax9, from PSCs using small molecules and chemically defined conditions. Generation of a reporter PSC line allows isolation and characterization of Pax9+ AFE cells. When transplanted in vivo, Pax9+ AFE can form several distinct types of complex anterior foregut epithelia including mucosal glands and stratified squamous epithelium. Finally, we show that the directed differentiation protocol can be used to generate AFE from DiGeorge Syndrome patient-specific human induced PSCs, thus creating a platform to produce anterior foregut derivatives for therapy and to enable the study of disorders of the AFE. Total RNA obtained from FACS purified from in vitro dervied mouse definitive endoderm, anterior foregut and ES cells. AFE cells were derived from a 129X1/SvJ background, DE cells from 129X1/SvJ x 129S1/SV-+p+Tyr- cKitlSl-J/+ (R1 ES cells) and non reporter ES cells from a 129P2/OlaHsd background.

Project description:Organoids are in vitro 3D models that are generated using stem cells to study organ development and regeneration. Despite the extensive research on lung organoids, there is limited information on pig lung cell generation or development. Here, we identified five epithelial cell types along with their characteristic markers using scRNA-seq. Additionally, we found that NKX2.1 and FOXA2 acted as the crucial core transcription factors in porcine lung development. The presence of SOX9/SOX2 double positive cells was identified as a key marker for lung progenitor cells. The Monocle algorithm was used to create a pseudo-temporal differentiation trajectory of epithelial cells, leading to the identification of signaling pathways related to porcine lung development. Moreover, we established the differentiation method from porcine pluripotent stem cells (pPSCs) to SOX17+FOXA2+ definitive endoderm and NKX2.1+FOXA2+CDX2- anterior foregut endoderm (AFE). The AFE are further differentiated into lung organoids while closely monitoring the differentiation process. We showed that NKX2.1 overexpression facilitated the induction of lung organoids and supported subsequent lung differentiation and maturation. This model offers valuable insights into studying the interaction patterns between cells and the signaling pathways during the development of the porcine lung.

Project description:Underdeveloped lungs are the primary cause of death in premature infants, however, little is known about stem and progenitor cell maintenance during human lung development. In this study, we have identified that FGF7, Retinoic Acid and CHIR-99021, a small molecule that inhibits GSK3 to activate Wnt signaling, support in vitro maintenance of primary human fetal lung bud tip progenitor cells in a progenitor state. Furthermore, these factors are sufficient to derive a population of human bud tip-like progenitor cells in 3D organoid structures from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC). Functional studies showed that hPSC-derived bud tip progenitor organoids do not contain any mesenchymal cell types, maintain multilineage potential in vitro and are able to engraft into the airways of injured mice and respond to systemic factors. We performed RNA-sequencing to assess the degree of similarity in global gene expression profiles between the full human fetal lung (59-127 days gestation), isolated human fetal bud tip progenitors, organoids grown from primary fetal bud tip progenitors, and hPSC-derived bud tip organoids. Results showed that hPSC-derived organoids have molecular profiles similar to organoids generated from primary human fetal lung tissue. Gene expression differences between hPSC-derived bud tip organoids and fetal progenitor organoids may be related to the presence of contaminating mesenchymal cells in primary cultures. hPSC-derived bud tip organoids are generated from a well-defined human cell sources, offering a distinct advantage over rare primary tissue as a means to study human specific lung development, homeostasis and disease.<br>Sample Nomenclature - Description<br> -------------------------------------------------------------------------<br> Peripheral fetal lung the distal/peripheral portion of the fetal lung (i.e., distal 0.5 cm) was excised from the rest of the lung using a scalpel.

Project description:Human lung organoids (HLOs) were derived from human embryonic stem cell line H9 NIH registry #0062. Sequencing of HLOs was performed by the UM DNA Sequencing Core, using Illumina Hi-Seq platform and single-end 50 bp reads. The UM Bioinformatics Core downloaded the reads files from the Sequencing Core storage, and concatenated those into a single .fastq file for each sample. 3 HLOs were cultured for 65 days and 3 HLOs were cultured in vitro for 110 days. HLO Culture Protocol 4-day Activin A (R&D systems) differentiation protocol was used to derive definitive endoderm from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Cells were treated with Activin A (100ngml-1) for three consecutive days in RPMI 1640 media (Life Technologies) with increasing concentrations of 0%, 0.2% and 2% HyClone defined fetal bovine serum (dFBS, Thermo Scientific). The fourth day was a repeat of day 3 media (2% HyClone FBS). After differentiation into definitive endoderm, cells were incubated in foregut media (advanced DMEM/F12 plus N-2 and B27 supplement, 10mM Hepes, 1x L-Glutamine (200mM), 1x Penicillin-streptomycin (5,000 U/mL, all from Life Technologies)) with 200ng/mL Noggin (NOG, R&D Systems) and 10uM SB431542 (SB, Stemgent) for 4 days, SB, 500ng/mL FGF4 (R&D Systems), and 2 uM CHIR99021 (Chiron, Stemgent), and 1uM SAG (Enzo Life Sciences) for 4-6 days. After 4 days with treatment of growth factors, three-dimensional floating spheroids were present in the culture. Three-dimensional spheroids were transferred into Matrigel to support 3D growth. Spheroids were embedded in a droplet of Matrigel (BD Bioscience #356237) in one well of a 24 well plate, and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. After the Matrigel solidified, foregut media with 1% Fetal bovine serum (FBS, CAT#: 16000-044, Life Technologies) and 500ng/mL FGF10 (R&D Systems) were overlaid and replaced every 4 days. Organoids were transferred into new Matrigel droplets every 10 to 15 days.

Project description:It has been postulated that during human fetal development all cells of the lung epithelium derive from an embryonic endodermal NKX2-1+ precursor, however, this hypothesis has not been formally tested due to an inability to purify or track this theorized cell for detailed characterization. Here we engineer and developmentally differentiate NKX2-1GFP reporter pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) in vitro to generate and isolate a human primordial lung progenitor that expresses NKX2-1 but is initially devoid of markers of differentiated lung lineages. As these progenitors move through the earliest moments of lung lineage specification from definitive endoderm they can be imaged in real time or isolated for time-series global transcriptomic profiling. We performed microarray analysis of 5 timepoints of human iPSC to lung directed differentiation compared to week 21 human fetal lung and Neural NKX2-1+ cell controls. These profiles indicate that evolutionarily conserved, stage-dependent developmental gene signatures are expressed in primordial human lung progenitors. Using a TALEN-targeted fluorescent reporter to purify iPSC-derived lung progenitors (C17 NKX2-1GFP) we analyzed cells at major developmental time points in vitro (undifferentiated iPSC, definitive endoderm, anterior foregut endoderm and sorted NKX2-1GFP+ and NKX2-1GFP- cells on day 15 and day 28 of the protocol). We also differentiated NXK2-1GFP iPSC in a neural protocol and isolated neural NKX2-1GFP+ cells. Approximately 90% pure human fetal lung epithelial cells from week 21 embryos were used as controls.

Project description:The definitive endoderm germ layer is the provenance of multiple internal organs, including the lungs, liver, pancreas and intestines. Molecular events driving initial endoderm germ layer specification and subsequent anterior-posterior patterning of endoderm into distinct organ primordia remain largely cryptic. Through microarray analyses, we captured genome-wide transcriptional dynamics driving successive stages of endoderm development with the intent of identifying novel regulatory genes or diagnostic markers that respectively drive or mark endoderm committment. HES3 human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) were differentiated into highly homogeneous endodermal progenitor populations, and microarray analyses were conducted of six different populations at different tiers of the endodermal lineage hierarchy: undifferentiated hESCs, anterior primitive streak (day 1 of in vitro differentiation), definitive endoderm (day 3) and anterior foregut, posterior foregut or midgut/hindgut patterned endoderm populations (day 7). Additionally, we compared hESCs differentiated using two alternative endoderm induction protocols, serum-based or AFBLy-based differentiation (both day 3 of differentiation).

Project description:Organoid models of early tissue development have been produced for the intestine, brain, kidney and other organs, but similar approaches for the heart have been lacking. Here we generate complex, highly structured, three-dimensional heart-forming organoids (HFOs) by embedding human pluripotent stem cell aggregates in Matrigel followed by directed cardiac differentiation via biphasic WNT pathway modulation with small molecules. HFOs are composed of a myocardial layer lined by endocardial-like cells and surrounded by septum-transversum-like anlagen; they further contain spatially and molecularly distinct anterior versus posterior foregut endoderm tissues and a vascular network. The architecture of HFOs closely resembles aspects of early native heart anlagen before heart tube formation, which is known to require an interplay with foregut endoderm development. We apply HFOs to study genetic defects in vitro by demonstrating that NKX2.5-knockout HFOs show a phenotype reminiscent of cardiac malformations previously observed in transgenic mice.

Project description:The foregut definitive endoderm is the precursor of many tissues including the liver, pancreas, thyroid, lungs, trachea and oesophagus. However, networks and pathways involved in the early development of the definitive endoderm of mammals are not well studied. To identify genes with potential roles in the early development of the foregut definitive endoderm in mouse embryos, we performed microarray analysis to compare the gene expression profile of foregut endoderm and non-endodermal tissues from early somite-stage mouse embryos. ARC/s embryos at 4- to 5-somite stages were collected and the anterior intestinal portal was isolated by digestion with trypsin and pancreatin and mechanical dissection. Ectoderm and mesoderm tissues were dissected from the head folds and the heart, and combined as the non-endoderm tissues for comparison of gene expression profiles. RNA was extracted from 15-20 pooled samples of endoderm or ectoderm plus mesoderm cells and subjected to two rounds of linear amplification and labelling according to standard methods (Affymetrix). The amplified products were hybridized to Affymetrix mouse MOE430 GeneChips. The experiment was performed twice. RNA amplification labelling, hybridization and scanning were performed by the Australian Genome Research Facility. GC-RMA data normalization and further analysis were performed using GenePattern software.
