Temporal multi-omics gene expression data across human embryonic stem cell-derived polyhormonal cell differentiation

ABSTRACT: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) provide a powerful in vitro model to study lineage specification and the regulatory programs underlying early human development. Here, we present a high-resolution, temporal multi-omics dataset tracking mRNA, translation, and protein expression dynamics during hESC differentiation into definitive endoderm and subsequent polyhormonal (PH) cells, a key pancreatic lineage. RNA-seq, ribosome profiling, and quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics were performed on matched samples collected at ten time points in biological duplicates, allowing detailed characterization of transcriptional, translational, and protein abundance changes over the differentiation timeline. The dataset exhibits high technical quality, with strong reproducibility between replicates and rigorous quality control metrics across all omics platforms. This extensive dataset provides critical insights into the complex regulatory mechanisms driving polyhormonal cell differentiation and serves as a valuable resource for the research community, enabling deeper exploration of mammalian development, endodermal lineage specification, and gene regulation.

Project description:The realization of human embryonic stem cells (hESC) as a model for human developmental hematopoiesis and potential cell replacement strategies relies on an improved understanding of the extrinsic and intrinsic factors regulating hematopoietic-specific hESC differentiation. Mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are multipotent cells of mesodermal origin that form part of hematopoietic stem cell niches and have an important role in the regulation of hematopoiesis through production of secreted factors and/or cell-to-cell interactions. We have previously shown that hESCs may be successfully maintained feeder-free using hMSC-conditioned media (MSC-CM). Here, we hypothesized that hESCs maintained in MSC-CM may be more prone to differentiation towards hematopoietic lineage than hESCs grown in standard human foreskin fibroblast (HFF)-conditioned media (HFF-CM). We report that specification into hemogenic progenitors and subsequent hematopoietic differentiation and clonogenic progenitor capacity is robustly enhanced in hESC lines maintained in MSC-CM. Interestingly, co-culture of hESCs on hMSCs fully abrogates hematopoietic specification of hESCs suggesting that the improved hematopoietic differentiation is mediated by MSC-secreted factors rather than by MSC-hESC physical interactions. To investigate the molecular mechanism involved in this process, we analyzed global (LINE-1) methylation and genome-wide promoter DNA methylation. Human ESCs grown in MSC-CM showed a decrease of 20% in global DNA methylation and a promoter DNA methylation signature consisting in 45 genes commonly hypomethylated and 102 genes frequently hypermethylated. Our data indicate that maintenance of hESCs in MSC-CM robustly augments hematopoietic specification and that the process seems mediated by MSC-secreted factors conferring a DNA methylation signature to undifferentiated hESCs which may influence further predisposition towards hematopoietic specification.
