Synthetic mRNA switches for detection and purification of cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells [mRNA]

ABSTRACT: We designed microRNA-responsive, modified mRNA switches (miR-switches) that quantitatively control their own translation level by determining the miRNA activities. We found that the three miR-switches (i.e., miR-1-, miR-208-, and miR-499-switches) enable to purify cardiomyocytes differentiated from hPSCs with high efficiency, accuracy, and safety. The purified cardiomyocytes were engrafted in mouse heart and did not form tumor. Simultaneous purification of two different cell types, cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells, was also performed by transfecting the mRNA responding to the both miR-208 and miR-126, into heterogeneous cell population derived from hPSCs. In addition, selective induction of apoptosis in noncardiomyocytes triggered by miR-1/208-Bim switch enriched cardiomyocytes without cell sorting. The mRNA switch could purify desired cell types and control cell death pathways by monitoring the miRNA expression dynamics during cell fate conversion.

Project description:Isolation of specific cell types, including pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived populations, is frequently accomplished using cell surface antigens expressed by the cells of interest. However, specific antigens for many cell types have not been identified, making their isolation difficult. Here, we describe an efficient method for purifying cells based on endogenous miRNA activity. We designed synthetic mRNAs encoding a fluorescent protein tagged with sequences targeted by miRNAs expressed by the cells of interest. These miRNA switches control their own translation levels by sensing miRNA activities. Several miRNA switches (miR-1-, miR-208a-, and miR-499a-5p-switches) efficiently purified cardiomyocytes differentiated from human PSCs, and switches encoding the apoptosis inducer Bim enriched for cardiomyocytes without cell sorting. This approach is generally applicable, as miR-126-, miR-122-5p- and miR-375-switches purified endothelial cells, hepatocytes and INSULIN-producing cells differentiated from hPSCs, respectively. Thus, miRNA switches can purify cell populations for which other isolation strategies are unavailable.
