An improved protocol for targeted differentiation of human iPSCs into HLA-G expressing trophoblasts cells enabling modelling of placenta-related disorders.

ABSTRACT: Abnormalities at any stage of trophoblast development may result in pregnancy-related com-plications. Many of these adverse outcomes are discovered later in pregnancy, but the underly-ing pathomechanisms constitute during the first trimester. Acquiring developmentally relevant material to elucidate the disease mechanisms is difficult. Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) technology can provide a renewable source of relevant cells. BMP4, A83-01, and PD173074 (BAP) treatment drives trophoblast commitment of hPSCs towards syncytiotrophoblast (STB) but lacks extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells. EVTs mediate key functions during placentation, remodel-ing of uterine spiral arteries, and maintenance of immunological tolerance. We optimized the protocol for more efficient generation of HLA-Gpos EVT-like trophoblasts from primed hiPSCs. Increasing the concentrations of A83-01 and PD173074, while decreasing bulk cell density re-sulted in the increase of HLA-G of up to 71%. Gene expression profiling support the advance-ments of our treatment regarding the generation of trophoblast cells. The reported differentia-tion protocol will allow the on-demand access to human trophoblast cells enriched for HLA-Gpos EVT-like cells, allowing the elucidation of placenta-related disorders and to investigate the im-munological tolerance towards the fetus, overcoming the difficulties in obtaining primary EVTs without the need for a complex differentiation pathway via naïve pluripotent or trophoblast stem cells.

scRNA-seq and snucRNA-seq of human primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) and trophoblast stem cells (TSCs) differentiation into extravillous trophoblast organoids (EVTs)

Project description:This study aims to compare in vivo human trophoblast differentiation into EVTs to different in vitro trophoblast organoids using single-cell and single-nuclei RNA sequencing. The study includes two type of systems: human primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) and trophoblast stem cells (TSCs). Trophoblast stem cell (TSC) lines BTS5 and BTS11 derived by Okae and colleagues were grown as described previously (Okae et al. 2018) and together with EVT media. Primary trophoblast organoids (PTO) were grown and differentiated into EVT as previously described by Turco & Sheridan (Turco et al 2018; Sheridan et al 2020). This study shows that the main regulatory programs mediating EVT invasion in vivo are preserved in in vitro models of EVT differentiation from primary trophoblast organoids and trophoblast stem cells.

Impacts of reprogramming method and culture conditions in trophoblast differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Trophoblast differentiation from human ESC has been achieved by exposing the cells to BMP4 with or without supplementation of ALK4/5/7 inhibitor (A83-01) and FGF2 signaling inhibitor (PD173074) (BAP). Here the two differentiation conditions, BMP4 and BAP were applied to two sets of human PSC lines, H1 ESC and iPSC that latter was generated by DOX-inducible lentiviral (V) transductions of umbilical cord mesenchymal cells. The V-iPSC showed residual transgene expressions from the viral vectors in DOX-free culture condition. When the both ESC and iPSC lines were differentiated simultaneously, similar time dependent morphological changes were observed but BMP4 treated V-iPSC showed a minor yet consistent lag in the differentiation progression compared to BMP4 treated hESC. Although both differentiated ESC and V-iPSC showed dominant trophoblast phenotypes, the BMP4 treated V-iPSC also expressed gene markers consistent with the presence of mesoendoderm. The BAP condition provided more efficient differentiation than BMP4 alone, and the BAP-differentiated iPSC and ESC never expressed mesoendoderm markers. Five samples, one control of undifferentiated V-iPSC (FGF2) and four differentiated samples included two H1 ESC (treated with BMP4 or BMP4+A83-01) and similarly treated two V-iPSC were analyzed. Trophoblast differentiation was conducted with BMP4 (10 ng/ml) with or without supplementation of ALK4/5/7 inhibitor (A83-01; 1 μM) to H1 ESC and V-iPSC, respective reagents were added to FGF2-free MEF-CM from the second day culture of following passages for up to six additional days.

Human uterine Natural Killer cells regulate differentiation of extravillous trophoblast early in pregnancy - bulk RNA-seq data

Project description:An allorecognition system depending on interactions between uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells and placental extravillous trophoblast (EVT) during early pregnancy influences reproductive outcomes in humans. Our previous immunogenetic studies show that particular combinations of maternal Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIR) in uNK cells with fetal HLA-C variants on EVT are associated with disorders of pregnancy, especially pre-eclampsia. To identify responses stimulated in uNK cells specifically when activating KIR (KIR2DS1) binds to C2+HLA-C, a combination protective against pre-eclampsia, we modelled KIR-HLA interactions by co-culturing uNK cells with the 721.221 HLA-null cell line transfected to express either C1+ or C2+HLA-C molecules, followed by transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing. We detect the secretion of key cytokines by uNK cells under the protective combination between KIR2DS1 and C2+HLA-C.

Gene expression profiles of trophoblast cell lines

Project description:Invasive extravillous trophoblasts (EVTs) of the human placenta are critically involved in successful pregnancy outcome since they remodel the uterine spiral arteries to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to the placenta and the developing fetus. To gain more insights into their biological role different primary cell culture models are commonly utilised. However, access to early placental tissue may be limited and primary trophoblasts rapidly cease proliferation in vitro impairing genetic manipulation. Hence, trophoblastic cell lines have been widely used as surrogates to study EVT function. Although the cell lines share some molecular marker expression with their primary counterpart, it is unknown to what extent they recapture the invasive phenotype of EVT. Therefore, we here report the first thorough GeneChip analyses of SGHPL-5, HTR-8/SVneo, BeWo, JEG-3 and the novel ACH-3P trophoblast cells in comparison to previously analysed primary villous cytrophoblasts and extravillous trophoblasts. To identify EVT-specific gene expression signatures in trophoblast cell lines, we calcuted differentially expressed genes between pre-defined groups based on the distinct origins of the five trophoblast cell lines under investigation. Comparison 1 comprised EVT, HTR-8/Svneo and SGHPL-5 vs choriocarcinoma cells (ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3). Comparison 2 comprised EVT, ACH-3P, BeWo, JEG-3 vs extravillous trophoblast cell lines (HTR-8/SVneo, SGHPL-5).

Zika virus impacts extracellular vesicle composition and cellular gene expression in macaque early gestation trophoblasts

Project description:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection at the maternal-placental interface is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes including fetal demise and pregnancy loss. To determine how infection impacts placental trophoblasts, we utilized rhesus macaque trophoblast stem cells (TSC) that can be differentiated into early gestation syncytiotrophoblasts (ST) and extravillous trophoblasts (EVT). TSCs and STs, but not EVTs, were highly permissive to productive infection with ZIKV strain DAK AR 41524. The impact of ZIKV on the cellular transcriptome showed that infection of TSCs and STs increased expression of immune related genes, including those involved in type I and type III interferon responses. ZIKV exposure altered extracellular vesicle (EV) protein, mRNA, and miRNA cargo, regardless of productive infection. These findings suggest that early gestation macaque TSCs and STs are permissive to ZIKV infection, and that EV analysis may provide a foundation for identifying non-invasive biomarkers of placental infection in a highly translational model.

A human maternal-fetus interface transcriptome atlas

Project description:Trophoblasts undergos dynamic differentiation and self-renewal during pregnancy. Expecially, EVTs anchor the placenta to the uterus to ensure pregnancy success, and its invasive excessiveness is a probable consequence of ruptured tubal ectopic pregnancy (REP), that resulting in maternal infertile and/or even deaths. We present REP, abortive tubal ectopic pregnancy (AEP)and intrauterine pregnancy (IP) atlas by integrating single-cell RNA-seq. We define cell subtypes within EVTs and each of the feature genes. Further, we utilize monocle3 and RNA velocty to identify the developmental trajectories of EVT subsets. CellPhoneDB and cell-chat unravel secretion of CSF1 by falloppian tubal secretory epithelial cells directly interact with CSF1R of EVT to strengthens the invasive ability.

Cells with features of totipotency derived from human ESC and iPSC by transient BMP4 exposure

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) exposed to BMP4 (B) and inhibitors of ACTIVIN signaling (A83-01; A) and FGF2 (PD173074; P) in absence of FGF2 (BAP conditions) differentiate into colonies primarily comprised of trophoblast. In an attempt to isolate trophoblast stem cells, colonies of hESC were exposed to BAP for 24 h at which time they had begun to transition into a CDX2-positive state. Cultures were then dissociated into single cells by trypsin and grown on a gelatin substratum. Under these conditions, organized CDX2+/KRT7- colonies began to emerge within a few days. The self-renewing cell lines were not TBSC, but met standard criteria for pluripotency. They were named H1BP cells. They differed from the progenitor hPSC in morphology, ability to be clonally propagated from single cells onto gelatin, requirements for FGF2, and transcriptome profile.

Human uterine Natural Killer cells regulate differentiation of extravillous trophoblast early in pregnancy - scRNA-seq data

Project description:We used trophoblast organoids differentiating to extravillous trophoblast (EVT) to study the effects of key cytokines secreted by uterine Natural Killer (uNK) cells on EVT behaviour. Specifically, we exposed the organoids to four uNK-derived cytokines (CSF1, CSF2, XCL1, CCL5) and collected cells at different time points along the EVT differentiation pathway for scRNA-seq. We observe enhanced EVT differentiation in cytokine-treated organoids demonstrated by the increased proportion of late EVT subtypes and regulation of related pathways such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Moreover, uNK cytokines affect other processes important during early pregnancy including dampening of inflammatory and adaptive immune responses, regulation of blood flow, and placental access to nutrients.

iPSC-based modeling of preeclampsia identifies defects in extravillous trophoblast differentiation

Project description:Preeclampsia (PE) is a hypertensive pregnancy disorder with increased risk of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Abnormal extravillous trophoblast (EVT) development and function is considered to be the underlying cause of PE, but has not previously been modeled in vitro. We previously derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from placentas of PE patients and characterized abnormalities in formation of syncytiotrophoblast and responses to changes in oxygen tension. In this study, we converted these primed iPSC to naïve iPSC, then derived trophoblast stem cells (TSC) and EVT to evaluate molecular mechanisms underlying PE. We found that primed (but not naïve) iPSC-derived PE-EVT have reduced surface HLA-G, blunted invasive capacity, and altered EVT-specific gene expression. These abnormalities correlated with promotor hypermethylation of genes associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathway, specifically in primed-iPSC derived PE-EVT. Our findings indicate that abnormal epigenetic regulation might play a role in the PE pathogenesis.
