Establishing Bovine Embryonic Stem Cells and Analyzing Potential Mechanisms of their Self-Renewal

ABSTRACT: Bovine pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) hold significant potential for diverse applications in agriculture, reproductive biotechnology, and biomedical research. However, challenges persist in establishing stable bovine PSC lines and understanding the mechanisms un-derlying their pluripotency maintenance. Here, we derived bovine embryonic stem cells (bESCs) from Holstein cattle embryos. These cells exhibited robust differentiation capacity into three germ layers in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptome analysis revealed distinct molecular profiles compared to primed-state bESCs. Notably, bESC proliferation ceased on methanol-treated feeder cells, in contrast to mouse ESCs (mESCs), which proliferated normally. Pathway analysis identified key signaling events critical for bESC survival and proliferation, highlighting species-specific regulatory mechanisms. Furthermore, the derived bESCs demonstrated chimerism capacity in early bovine embryos, underscoring their functional pluripotency. This work provides a foundation for advancing bovine embryology research and stem cell-based biotechnologies in livestock.

Primed bovine embryonic stem cell lines can be derived at diverse stages of blastocyst development with similar efficiency and molecular characteristics

Project description:In this study, we established bovine embryonic stem cell (bESC) lines from early (eBL) and full (BL) blastocysts to determine the efficiency of bESC derivation from an earlier embryonic stage and compare the characteristics of the resulting lines. Using established medium and protocols for derivation of primed bESCs from expanded blastocysts, we derived bESC lines from eBLs and BLs with the same efficiency (4/12 each, 33%). Regardless of original blastocyst stage, bESC lines had a similar phenotype, including differentiation capacity, stable karyotype, and pluripotency marker expression over feeder-free transition and long-term culture. Transcriptome and functional analyses indicated that eBL- and BL-derived lines were in primed pluripotency. We additionally compared RNA-sequencing data from our lines to bovine embryos and stem cells from other recent reports, finding that base medium was the predominant source of variation among cell lines. In conclusion, our results show that indistinguishable bESC lines can be readily derived from eBL and BL, widening the pool of embryos available for bESC establishment. Finally, our investigation points to sources of variation in cell phenotype among recently reported bESC conditions, opening the door to future studies investigating the impact of factors aside from signaling molecules on ESC derivation, maintenance, and performance.

Mixed-Lineage Leukemia 1 Inhibition Enhances the Differentiation Potential of Bovine Embryonic Stem Cells by Increasing H3K4 Mono-Methylation at Active Promoters. (RNA-seq)

Project description:Mixed-lineage leukemia 1 (MLL1) introduces 1-, 2- and 3-methylation into histone H3K4 through the evolutionarily conserved set domain. In this study, bovine embryonic stem cells (bESCs, known as bESCs-F7) were established from in vitro-fertilized (IVF) embryos via Wnt signaling inhibition; however, their contribution to the endoderm in vivo is limited. To improve the quality of bESCs, MM-102, an inhibitor of MLL1, was applied to the culture. The results showed that MLL1 inhibition along with GSK3 and MAP2K inhibition (3i) at the embryonic stage did not affect bESCs’ establishment and pluripotency. MLL1 inhibition improved the pluripotency and differentiation potential of bESCs via the up-regulation of stem cell signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt and WNT. MLL1 inhibition decreased H3K4me1 modification at the promoters and altered the distribution of DNA methylation in bESCs. In summary, MLL1 inhibition gives bESCs better pluripotency, and its application may provide high-quality pluripotent stem cells for domestic animals.

Molecular characterization of bovine embryonic stem cells derived from IVF, cloned, and parthenogenetic embryos

Project description:Purpose: Embryonic stem cells (ESC) indefinitely maintain the pluripotent state of the blastocyst epiblast. Stem cells are invaluable for studying development and lineage commitment, and in livestock they constitute a useful tool for genomic improvement and in vitro breeding programs. Although these cells have been recently derived from bovine blastocysts, a detailed characterization of their molecular state is still lacking. Methods: Here, we compared the transcriptomic and epigenomic profiles of bovine ESC (bESC) obtained from in vitro fertilized (IVF), somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), and parthenogenetic (PAR) embryos. Results: Bovine ESC were efficiently derived from SCNT and IVF embryos and expressed pluripotency markers while retaining genome stability. Transcriptome analysis revealed that only 46 genes were differentially expressed between IVF- and SCNT-derived bESC, which did not reflect significant deviation in cellular function. Additionally, by interrogating the histone marks H3K4me3, H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 with CUT&Tag, we found that the epigenomes of bESC subtypes were virtually indistinguishable. Minor epigenetic differences were randomly distributed throughout the genome and were not associated with differentially expressed or developmentally important genes. Finally, categorization of genomic regions according to their combined histone mark signal demonstrated that bESC subtypes shared the same epigenomic signatures, especially at promoters. Conclusions: Overall, we conclude that bESC derived from SCNT and IVF embryos are transcriptomically and epigenetically analogous.

Efficient derivation of stable primed pluripotent embryonic stem cells from bovine blastocysts [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are derived from the inner cell mass of preimplantation blastocysts. From agricultural and biomedical perspectives, the derivation of stable ESCs from domestic ungulates is important for genomic testing and selection, genome engineering, and modeling human diseases. Cattle are one of the most important domestic ungulates that are commonly used for food and bioreactors. To date, however, it remains a challenge to produce stable pluripotent bovine ESC lines. Employing a culture system containing fibroblast growth factor 2 and an inhibitor of the canonical Wnt-signaling pathway, we derived pluripotent bovine ESCs (bESCs) with stable morphology, transcriptome, karyotype, population-doubling time, pluripotency marker gene expression, and epigenetic features. Under this condition bESC lines were efficiently derived (100% in optimal conditions), were established quickly (3–4 wk), and were simple to propagate (by trypsin treatment). When used as donors for nuclear transfer, bESCs produced normal blastocyst rates, thereby opening the possibility for genomic selection, genome editing, and production of cattle with high genetic value.

Pyruvate and recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor rescue the pluripotency and metabolism of bovine embryonic stem cells on low-density feeder layers

Project description:Feeder cells still play an important role in the in vitro culture of bovine embryonic stem cells(bESCs). A suitable microenvironment or niche is essential for the self-renewal and pluripotency of stem cells cultured in vitro. Feeder cells participate in the construction of stem cell niches by secreting growth factors and extracellular matrix proteins. In this study, we used metabolomics and transcriptomics to investigate the effects of feeder layer deficiency on bESCs. bESCs co-cultured with low-density feeder cells experienced a decrease in pluripotent gene expression, cell differentiation, and central carbon metabolic activity. When cell-permeable pyruvate (Pyr) and recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF) were added to the culture system, the pluripotency of bESCs on low-density feeder layers was rescued, and acetyl-coenzyme A(AcCoA) synthesis and fatty acid de novo synthesis increased. rhbFGF enhances the effects of Pyr and activates the overall metabolic level of bESCs grown on low-density feeder layers.

Effects of IWR-1 on the transcriptome of bovine embryonic stem cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Project description:The use of tankyrase inhibitors is essential for capturing livestock embryonic stem cells (ESC), yet their mechanisms of action remain largely uncharacterized. Previous studies indicate that their roles extend beyond the suppression of canonical WNT signaling. This study investigates the effects of the tankyrase inhibitor IWR-1 on the transcriptome of bovine embryonic stem cells (bESC) and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF). We performed RNA-seq analysis on day 1 treated bESC and the co-cultured MEF. Comparing the transcriptomes of cells cultured in complete medium (IWR) and IWR-1-removed medium (IWRR), we identified small fractions of exclusively expressed genes in both bESC and MEF. Regulators of HIPPO pathways TEAD4, AMOTL2, and AJUBA and HIPPO targeted gene CYR61 were differentially expressed in bESC. We also found that IWR-1 altered expression of 8 genes in MEF associated with signaling pathways activated by TGF-β ligands, including Gdf6, Inhbb, Bmp4, Fst, Inhba, Thbs1, Tgfb1, and Bmp2.

Establishment and characterization of Bovine trophoblast stem cells (bTSCs) growing as adherent cells or vesicles

Project description:Understanding embryonic development still remains one of the main challenge in developmental biology. Using 3D in vitro models of early embryonic development in the mouse and human, scientists hope to decipher embryonic mechanisms, in particular the initial arrangement and interaction of cells within the embryonic structure. To date, there are very few models established for livestock species. In this study, we have derived and characterized bovine trophoblastic stem cells (bTSCs) that we further used to establish with bESCs (bovine embryonic stem cells) the first in vitro model of bovine blastoïds.
