A synthetic DNA-binding inhibitor of SOX2 guided human induced pluripotent stem cells to differentiate into cardiac mesoderm

ABSTRACT: Targeted differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) using only chemicals is proclaimed to have value-added clinical potential in the regeneration of complex cell types like cardiomyocytes. Despite the availability of several small molecule inhibitors capable of modulating specific receptor-ligand interaction or enzymatic activity, no bioactive synthetic DNA-binding inhibitor targeting key cell fate-controlling gene like SOX2 is available yet. Herein, we demonstrate a novel DNA-based chemical approach to guide hiPSCs differentiation using pyrrole-imidazole polyamides (PIPs), which are sequence-selective DNA-binding synthetic molecules. Harnessing the knowledge about key transcriptional changes associated with cardiomyocyte induction, we developed a PIP termed SOX-L targeting 5′-CTTTGTT-3′ sequence and demonstrate the inhibition of SOX2-DNA interaction and mesoderm induction of hiPSCs. Genome-wide gene analyses revealed that SOX-L remarkably specified cardiac mesoderm by triggering targeted alteration in SOX2-associated gene regulatory networks. Also, employment of SOX-L along with a Wnt inhibitor successfully generated spontaneously contracting cardiomyocytes to validate our concept that DNA-binding inhibitors like PIPs could be used for directed differentiation of hiPSCs. Because PIPs could be fine-tuned to target specific DNA sequences, our DNA-based approach could be expanded to directly target and distinctively regulate key transcription factor associated with the desired cell type.

Targeted suppression of metastasis controlling transcription factor SOX2 in various cancers using a sequence-specific designer Pyrrole-Imidazole Polyamide

Project description:SOX2 is a well-known transcription factor that plays a central role in maintaiing self renewal, pluripotency of embryonic stem cells, and cell fate determination during embryonic development. N-Methylpyrrole-N-methylimidazole polyamides (PIPs) are chemical compounds that can selectively recognize DNA sequence and achieve operative control over gene expression. In this study, the antitumor activity of a PIP targeting SOX2 binding sequence (SOX2i), which was recently shown to induce the targeted differentiation of stem cells into cardiomyocytes, was evaluated.

Cardiac mesoderm induction by Tbx6 without exogenous factors

Project description:Cardiac mesoderm, a precursor for all cardiovascular lineages, is a promising cell source for basic research and clinical applications. BMP/Nodal/Wnt signaling induces cardiac mesoderm in embryonic stem cells (ESCs); however the molecular mechanism is unclear and the differentiation protocols are labor-intensive. Identification of a master regulator that induces cardiac mesoderm is needed. Here we found that Tbx6 directly reprogrammed mouse fibroblasts into cardiac mesoderm-like cells, which differentiated into cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle cells with addition of lineage-specific transcription factors. In mouse ESCs, BMP/Activin (Nodal) induced Tbx6 in cardiac mesoderm, while inhibition of Tbx6 blocked differentiation into cardiac mesoderm and cardiomyocytes. Conversely, transient expression of Tbx6 induced cardiac mesoderm in ESCs without exogenous factors, and generated all cardiovascular lineages. Mechanistically, Tbx6 directly upregulated Mesp1, inhibited Sox2, and activated BMP/Nodal/Wnt signaling to induce cardiac mesoderm. Thus, Tbx6 acts as a key regulator for cardiac mesoderm induction, and our findings provide new insights into the mechanism of cardiovascular differentiation.

NextGen Consortium: The iPSCORE (iPSC Collection for Omic Research) Resource

Project description:<p>The iPSCORE Resource of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) was created as part of the Next-Gen Consortium funded by the NHLBI. The overarching purpose of the iPSCORE Resource is to provide a large collection of hiPSCs for use in studying the impact of genetic variation on molecular and physiological phenotypes. This Resource is being used in a number of ongoing studies for which genomic data will be generated and deposited into public repositories and linked through dbGaP. A total of 273 individuals have participated in the study for which 222 have had hiPSCs generated from fibroblasts (available through WiCell (<a href="http://www.wicell.org/" target="_blank">http://www.wicell.org/</a>)). Of the 273 individuals, 181 are part of 55 families that include 24 monozygotic twin pairs and 5 dizygotic twin pairs, allowing for the incorporation of familial relationships into genetic analyses. Germline DNA has been sequenced from blood or fibroblast samples for all 273 individuals (see <a href="./study.cgi?study_id=phs001325">phs001325</a>) and other genomic data (RNA-seq, DNA methylation, and genotype arrays) has been generated from the 222 hiPSCs derived from a subset of these individuals (phs000924). Current studies include differentiation of these hiPSCs to other cell types, including cardiomyocytes and retinal pigment epithelium, and the generation of additional genomic data.</p>

Cardiac organoids reveal mechanisms of human cardiogenesis

Project description:Self-organisation and coordinated morphogenesis of multiple cardiac lineages is essential for the development and function of the heart1-3. However, the absence of a human in vitro model that mimics the basic lineage architecture of the heart hinders research into developmental mechanisms and congenital defects4. Here, we describe the establishment of a reliable, lineage-controlled and high-throughput cardiac organoid platform. We show that cardiac mesoderm derived from human pluripotent stem cells robustly self-organises and differentiates into cardiomyocytes forming a cavity. Co-differentiation of cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells from cardiac mesoderm within these structures is required to form a separate endothelial layer. As in vivo, the epicardium engulfs these cardiac organoids, migrates into the cardiomyocyte layer and differentiates. We use this model to demonstrate that cardiac cavity formation is controlled by a mesodermal WNT-BMP signalling axis. Disruption of one of the key BMP targets in cardiac mesoderm, the transcription factor HAND1, interferes with cavity formation, which is consistent with its role in early heart tube and left chamber development5. Thus, the cardiac organoid platform represents a powerful resource for the quantitative and mechanistic analysis of early human cardiogenesis and defects that are otherwise inaccessible. Beyond understanding congenital heart disease, cardiac organoids provide a foundation for future translational research into human cardiac disorders.

mRNA sequencing of wildtype versus CEP83 knockout hiPSCs at diffirent time points of differentiation to kidney organoids [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Centrosomal protein 83 (CEP83) is a component of the distal appendages proteins of centrioles, which is necessary for the assembly of primary cilia. Previous studies have implicated primary cilia in normal development and tissue homeostasis, including kidney development. The kidney develops from human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSCs) in a stepwise process involving induction of specialized Nephron progenitors (NPs) in the intermediate mesoderm (IM), followed by their differentiation into kidney epithelia. Here, we used CRISPR-cas9 technology to knockout CEP83 in hiPSCs that were differentiated versus the wildtype hiPSCs into IM followed by kidney epithelial differentiation to analyze the role of CEP83 in human kidney epithelial differentiation. We used morphological analyses, gene expression studies and immunostaining to analyze IM and nephron differentiation. Bulk RNA and single cell sequencing showed that CEP83-/- IM cells abnormally upregulate regulatory transcription factors of lateral plate mesoderm (LPM) including OSR1, FOXF1, FOXF2, HAND2 and FEDRR., and downregulate marker genes in specific NPs ncluding; PAX8, HOXB7 and EYA1. Further, wildtype hiPSCs successfully differentiated into kidney organoids that upregulate key nephron markers, including NPHS1, CUBN and GATA3. In contrast, CEP83-/- hiPSCs failed to differentiate into nephron epithelia and didn’t express nephron marker genes. In a human system modeling kidney epithelial differentiation from hiPSCs, our data provide a new insight to the essential role of CEP83 in NPs differentiation and may help to better understand the pathogenesis of CEP83-associated renal developmental defects.

Telomerase is essential for cardiac differentiation and sustained metabolism of human cardiomyocytes II

Project description:In this study, we employed an inducible CRISPRi human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line to silence TERT expression enabling the generation of hiPSCs and hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes with long and short telomeres. Reduced telomerase activity and shorter telomere lengths of hiPSCs strongly hampered their differentiation potential towards cardiomyocytes
