Human BRD2 impedes pluripotency reprogramming mainly by suppressing lipogenesis

ABSTRACT: Induction of pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from human somatic cells encounters extensive and significant molecular barriers. Our understanding of the reprogramming barriers remains limited. Lipids are the fundamental cellular building blocks, energy sources, nutrition, signaling molecules, and components for protein lipidation. The roles of lipids and lipogenesis in reprogramming are unknown. Here, we proved that BRD2 is a major molecular barrier to human iPSC (HiPSC) reprogramming. Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) displayed a much weaker transcriptional program in matrisome compared to that of the reprogramming starting cells. BRD2 legitimately reprogrammed a set of matrisome and the related genes from the higher somatic to the weaker pluripotent states. BRD2 also suppressed expression of genes in lipogenesis and lipid metabolism in the reprogramming cells. The two rate-limiting enzymes of lipogeneses, SCD and HMGCR, enhanced iPSC reprogramming while chemical inhibition of HMGCR abrogates reprogramming. Critically, the supplementation of lipids rescues BRD2 suppression of reprogramming. ET tail of BRD2 suppresses reprogramming and the transcriptional programs of lipogenesis and lipid metabolism, but positively regulates gene expression of matrisome and the related genes. These discoveries advance our molecular understanding of HiPSC reprogramming, matrisome, and lipogenesis, and improve HiPSC technology.

Transcriptional profiling of mouse inner cell mass of the blastocyst, primordial germ cells and cultured pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells are derived from culture of early embryos or the germline, and can be induced by reprogramming of somatic cells. Barriers to reprogramming are expected to exist that stabilize the differentiated state and have tumor suppression functions. However, we have a limited understanding of what such barriers might be. To find novel barriers to reprogramming to pluripotency, we compared the transcriptional profiles of the mouse germline to pluripotent and somatic cells, in vivo and in vitro. There is a remarkable global expression of the transcriptional program for pluripotency in Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs). We identify parallels between PGCs reprogramming to pluripotency and human germ cell tumorigenesis, including the loss of LATS2, a tumor suppressor kinase of the Hippo pathway. We show that knockdown of LATS2 increases the efficiency of induction of pluripotency in human cells. LATS2 RNAi, unlike p53 RNAi, specifically enhances the generation of fully reprogrammed iPS cells without accelerating cell proliferation. We further show that LATS2 represses reprogramming in human cells by post-transcriptionally antagonizing TAZ but not YAP, two downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway. These results reveal transcriptional parallels between germ cell transformation and the generation of iPS cells, and indicate that the Hippo pathway constitutes a barrier to cellular reprogramming. Mouse pluripotent cells isolated directly from embryos or cultured in vitro as stem cells were analyzed using Affymetrix expression microarrays, together with several non-pluripotent cell controls, in 2-6 replicates per sample.

Gene expression data from human induced Pluripotent Stem cells

Project description:Human induced Pluripotent Stem cells (hiPSc) and their differentiated progeny have great potential for modelling disease. To realise this potential, robust protocols need to be developed for deriving authentic differentiated cell lineages and these lineages need to be rigorously characterised. We have generated hiPSc using retrovirus-mediated delivery of reprogramming factors, and have used them for characterising mid-brain dopaminergic neurons. hiPSc lines have been screened using SNP array to assess chromosomal stability, and validation of the pluripotency of the hiPSc lines is provided by Pluritest assessment of transcriptome datasets. A mature physiological cellular model of human dopaminergic neurons. human iPSc lines were derived from normal human dermal fibroblasts.

Project description:human induced Pluripotent Stem cells (hiPSc) and their differentiated progeny have great potential for modelling disease. To realise this potential, robust protocols need to be developed for deriving authentic differentiated cell lineages and these lineages need to be rigorously characterised. We have generated hiPSc using retrovirus-mediated delivery of reprogramming factors, and have used them for assessing the efficiency of a defined protocol for differentiation to monocytes and macrophages. hiPSc lines have been screened using SNP array to assess chromosomal stability, and validation of the pluripotency of the hiPSc lines is provided by Pluritest assessment of transcriptome datasets. van Wilgenburg B, Browne C and Cowley SA, submitted for publication human iPSc lines were derived from normal human dermal fibroblasts.

Factors controlling somatic reprogramming of transformed tumorigeneic cells to induced pluripotent-like stem cells [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Cancer cells can only rarely be reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using the overexpression of the transgenes Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and Myc. Those cancer cells that have been reprogrammed seem to only partially complete the process and are locked in an intermediate state. There are barriers that block cancer cells from reprogramming, but the nature of those barriers is unclear. In this work, we immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) using a variety of transgenes and discovered several immortalized cell lines that remain compatible with reprogramming. We utilise the different lines to explore the factors that are compatible with reprogrmming and those that block reprogramming to pluripotent stem cells

EVOLUTION OF THE LIPIDOME UNCOVERS EARLY CHANGES IN ADRENOLEUKODYSTROPHY HUMAN CORTICAL AND SPINAL ORGANOIDS

Project description:<p>Lipids are critical for the structure, signaling, and metabolism of the central nervous system (CNS), yet their roles during human brain development remain underexplored due to limited tissue availability. X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a peroxisomal disorder caused by ABCD1 mutations, disrupts very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) degradation, leading to axonal degeneration and demyelination. To investigate lipid dynamics in CNS development and ALD pathogenesis, we generated human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cortical and spinal cord organoids and performed lipidomics over 200 days. Lipidomic analysis revealed a dynamic lipidome, with changes in lipid abundance, saturation, and chain length reflecting neurodevelopment. ALD hiPSC-derived organoids exhibited significant lipid alterations over time, including elevated VLCFA levels and reductions in brain-relevant lipids, such as sulfatides and gangliosides, in cortical organoids. These findings provide a foundational resource for studying lipid dynamics in CNS development and emphasize the value of organoids for understanding ALD and other CNS diseases.</p>

Conversion of human fibroblasts into vascular cells (methylation)

Project description:We report a novel technique to reprogram human fibroblasts into endothelial and smooth muscle cells using partial iPSC reprogramming and chemically defined media. Using appropriate media conditions for differentiation of human pluripotent cells to CD34+ vascular progenitor cells, we show that temporary expression of pluripotent transcription factors and treatment with chemically-defined media, will induce differentiation of human fibroblasts to CD34+ vascular progenitor cells. Sorted CD34+ cells can then be directed to differentiate into vascular endothelial cells expressing a variety of smooth muscle markers. We have assessed the global DNA methylation (Illumina Infinium HD 450K DNA methylationBeadChips) and transcriptional (Illumina HT12v4 Gene Expression Bead Array) profiles of transdifferentiated endothelial cells and smooth muscle, human embryonic stem cell (hESC) and human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) differentiated CD34+ angioblasts, hESCs, hiPSC, primary smooth muscle and primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells using microarrays.
