A human embryonic stem cell line adapted for high throughput screening
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can be differentiated into multiple cell types with great therapeutic potential. However,optimizing the often multi-week cultures to obtain sufficient differentiated cell yields has been in part limited by the high variability of even parallel hESC differentiation cultures. We describe the isolation and features of a subline of CA1 hESCs (CA1S) that display a very high 25% cloning efficiency while retaining many properties of the parental hESCs,including being karyotypically normal and their ability to generate teratomas containing all three germ layers. Although more detailed analysis revealed that CA1S cells have a 3.8 Mb genomic duplication on chromosome 20,they remain highly useful. In particular,CA1S cells are readily expanded at high yields in culture and possess greatly reduced well-to-well variation even when seeded at 100 cells/well. Thus,108 CA1S cells can be generated within one week from 106 cells to seed 106 wells. We determined that CA1S cells have the capacity to follow established in vitro differentiation protocols to pancreatic progenitors and subsequent hormone-positive cell types and used CA1S cells to explore definitive endoderm induction in a high performance screen (Z-factor = 0.97). This system revealed that CA1S cells do not require WNT3A to efficiently form definitive endoderm,a finding that was confirmed with H1 hESCs,although H1 cells did show modest benefits of high WNT3A doses. Proliferative index measurements of CA1S cells were shown to rapidly reflect their differentiation status in a high throughput system. Though results obtained with CA1S cells will need to be confirmed using conventional hESC lines,these cells should ease the development of optimized hESC growth and differentiation protocols. In particular,they should limit the more arduous secondary screens using hESCs to a smaller number of variables and doses. Biotechnol.

The role of SIRT6 protein in aging and reprogramming of human induced pluripotent stem cells
Aging is known to be the single most important risk factor for multiple diseases. Sirtuin 6,or SIRT6,has recently been identified as a critical regulator of transcription,genome stability,telomere integrity,DNA repair,and metabolic homeostasis. A knockout mouse model of SIRT6 has displayed dramatic phenotypes of accelerated aging. In keeping with its role in aging,we demonstrated that human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) from older human subjects were more resistant to reprogramming by classic Yamanaka factors than those from younger human subjects,but the addition of SIRT6 during reprogramming improved such efficiency in older HDFs substantially. Despite the importance of SIRT6,little is known about the molecular mechanism of its regulation. We show,for the first,time posttranscriptional regulation of SIRT6 by miR-766 and inverse correlation in the expression of this microRNA in HDFs from different age groups. Our results suggest that SIRT6 regulates miR-766 transcription via a feedback regulatory loop,which has implications for the modulation of SIRT6 expression in reprogramming of aging cells.

Transcriptional and epigenetic dynamics during specification of human embryonic stem cells
Differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) provides a unique opportunity to study the regulatory mechanisms that facilitate cellular transitions in a human context. To that end,we performed comprehensive transcriptional and epigenetic profiling of populations derived through directed differentiation of hESCs representing each of the three embryonic germ layers. Integration of whole-genome bisulfite sequencing,chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing,and RNA sequencing reveals unique events associated with specification toward each lineage. Lineage-specific dynamic alterations in DNA methylation and H3K4me1 are evident at putative distal regulatory elements that are frequently bound by pluripotency factors in the undifferentiated hESCs. In addition,we identified germ-layer-specific H3K27me3 enrichment at sites exhibiting high DNA methylation in the undifferentiated state. A better understanding of these initial specification events will facilitate identification of deficiencies in current approaches,leading to more faithful differentiation strategies as well as providing insights into the rewiring of human regulatory programs during cellular transitions. ?? 2013 Elsevier Inc.

Improved cell therapy protocols for Parkinson's disease based on differentiation efficiency and safety of hESC-, hiPSC-, and non-human primate iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons
The main motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease are due to the loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the ventral midbrain (VM). For the future treatment of Parkinson's disease with cell transplantation it is important to develop efficient differentiation methods for production of human iPSCs and hESCs-derived midbrain-type DA neurons. Here we describe an efficient differentiation and sorting strategy for DA neurons from both human ES/iPS cells and non-human primate iPSCs. The use of non-human primate iPSCs for neuronal differentiation and autologous transplantation is important for preclinical evaluation of safety and efficacy of stem cell-derived DA neurons. The aim of this study was to improve the safety of human- and non-human primate iPSC (PiPSC)-derived DA neurons. According to our results,NCAM(+) /CD29(low) sorting enriched VM DA neurons from pluripotent stem cell-derived neural cell populations. NCAM(+) /CD29(low) DA neurons were positive for FOXA2/TH and EN1/TH and this cell population had increased expression levels of FOXA2,LMX1A,TH,GIRK2,PITX3,EN1,NURR1 mRNA compared to unsorted neural cell populations. PiPSC-derived NCAM(+) /CD29(low) DA neurons were able to restore motor function of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned rats 16 weeks after transplantation. The transplanted sorted cells also integrated in the rodent brain tissue,with robust TH+/hNCAM+ neuritic innervation of the host striatum. One year after autologous transplantation,the primate iPSC-derived neural cells survived in the striatum of one primate without any immunosuppression. These neural cell grafts contained FOXA2/TH-positive neurons in the graft site. This is an important proof of concept for the feasibility and safety of iPSC-derived cell transplantation therapies in the future.

Simple suspension culture system of human iPS cells maintaining their pluripotency for cardiac cell sheet engineering.
In this study,a simple three-dimensional (3D) suspension culture method for the expansion and cardiac differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) is reported. The culture methods were easily adapted from two-dimensional (2D) to 3D culture without any additional manipulations. When hiPSCs were directly applied to 3D culture from 2D in a single-cell suspension,only a few aggregated cells were observed. However,after 3 days,culture of the small hiPSC aggregates in a spinner flask at the optimal agitation rate created aggregates which were capable of cell passages from the single-cell suspension. Cell numbers increased to approximately 10-fold after 12 days of culture. The undifferentiated state of expanded hiPSCs was confirmed by flow cytometry,immunocytochemistry and quantitative RT-PCR,and the hiPSCs differentiated into three germ layers. When the hiPSCs were subsequently cultured in a flask using cardiac differentiation medium,expression of cardiac cell-specific genes and beating cardiomyocytes were observed. Furthermore,the culture of hiPSCs on Matrigel-coated dishes with serum-free medium containing activin A,BMP4 and FGF-2 enabled it to generate robust spontaneous beating cardiomyocytes and these cells expressed several cardiac cell-related genes,including HCN4,MLC-2a and MLC-2v. This suggests that the expanded hiPSCs might maintain the potential to differentiate into several types of cardiomyocytes,including pacemakers. Moreover,when cardiac cell sheets were fabricated using differentiated cardiomyocytes,they beat spontaneously and synchronously,indicating electrically communicative tissue. This simple culture system might enable the generation of sufficient amounts of beating cardiomyocytes for use in cardiac regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Bioluminescence Imaging of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Endothelial Cells for Treatment of Myocardial Infarction
Myocardial infarction is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide,and current treatments fail to address the underlying scarring and cell loss,which is a major cause of heart failure after infarction. The novel strategy,therapeutic angiogenesis and/or vasculogenesis with endothelial progenitor cells transplantation holds great promise to increase blood flow in ischemic areas,thus rebuild the injured heart and reverse the heart failure. Given the potential of self-renewal and differentiation into virtually all cell types,human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) may provide an alternate source of therapeutic cells by allowing the derivation of large numbers of endothelial cells for therapeutic angiogenesis and/or vasculogenesis of ischemic heart diseases. Moreover,to fully understand the fate of implanted hESCs or hESC derivatives,investigators need to monitor the motility of cells in living animals over time. In this chapter,we describe the application of bioluminescence reporter gene imaging to track the transplanted hESC-derived endothelial cells for treatment of myocardial infarction. The technology of inducing endothelial cells from hESCs will also be discussed.

Highly efficient induction and long-term maintenance of multipotent cardiovascular progenitors from human pluripotent stem cells under defined conditions
Cardiovascular progenitor cells (CVPCs) derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs),including human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs),hold great promise for the study of cardiovascular development and cell-based therapy of heart diseases,but their applications are challenged by the difficulties in their efficient generation and stable maintenance. This study aims to develop chemically defined systems for robust generation and stable propagation of hPSC-derived CVPCs by modulating the key early developmental pathways involved in human cardiovascular specification and CVPC self-renewal. Herein we report that a combination of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4),glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) inhibitor CHIR99021 and ascorbic acid is sufficient to rapidly convert monolayer-cultured hPSCs,including hESCs and hiPSCs,into homogeneous CVPCs in a chemically defined medium under feeder- and serum-free culture conditions. These CVPCs stably self-renewed under feeder- and serum-free conditions and expanded over 10(7)-fold when the differentiation-inducing signals from BMP,GSK3 and Activin/Nodal pathways were simultaneously eliminated. Furthermore,these CVPCs exhibited expected genome-wide molecular features of CVPCs,retained potentials to generate major cardiovascular lineages including cardiomyocytes,smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells in vitro,and were non-tumorigenic in vivo. Altogether,the established systems reported here permit efficient generation and stable maintenance of hPSC-derived CVPCs,which represent a powerful tool to study early embryonic cardiovascular development and provide a potentially safe source of cells for myocardial regenerative medicine.

Notch signaling represses p63 expression in the developing surface ectoderm.
The development of the mature epidermis requires a coordinated sequence of signaling events and transcriptional changes to specify surface ectodermal progenitor cells to the keratinocyte lineage. The initial events that specify epidermal keratinocytes from ectodermal progenitor cells are not well understood. Here,we use both developing mouse embryos and human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to explore the mechanisms that direct keratinocyte fate from ectodermal progenitor cells. We show that both hESCs and murine embryos express p63 before keratin 14. Furthermore,we find that Notch signaling is activated before p63 expression in ectodermal progenitor cells. Inhibition of Notch signaling pharmacologically or genetically reveals a negative regulatory role for Notch signaling in p63 expression during ectodermal specification in hESCs or mouse embryos,respectively. Taken together,these data reveal a role for Notch signaling in the molecular control of ectodermal progenitor cell specification to the epidermal keratinocyte lineage.

Low Immunogenicity of Neural Progenitor Cells Differentiated from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Derived from Less Immunogenic Somatic Cells
The groundbreaking discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) provides a new source for cell therapy. However,whether the iPS derived functional lineages from different cell origins have different immunogenicity remains unknown. It had been known that the cells isolated from extra-embryonic tissues,such as umbilical cord mesenchymal cells (UMCs),are less immunogenic than other adult lineages such as skin fibroblasts (SFs). In this report,we differentiated iPS cells from human UMCs and SFs into neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and analyzed their immunogenicity. Through co-culture with allologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs),we showed that UMCs were indeed less immunogenic than skin cells to simulate proliferation of PBMCs. Surprisingly,we found that the NPCs differentiated from UMC-iPS cells retained low immunogenicity as the parental UMCs based on the PBMC proliferation assay. In cytotoxic expression assay,reactions in most kinds of immune effector cells showed more perforin and granzyme B expression with SF-NPCs stimulation than that with UMC-NPCs stimulation in PBMC co-culture system,in T cell co-culture system as well. Furthermore,through whole genome expression microarray analysis,we showed that over 70 immune genes,including all members of HLA-I,were expressed at lower levels in NPCs derived from UMC-iPS cells than that from SF-iPS cells. Our results demonstrated a phenomenon that the low immunogenicity of the less immunogenic cells could be retained after cell reprogramming and further differentiation,thus provide a new concept to generate functional lineages with lower immunogenicity for regenerative medicine.

Enrichment of human embryonic stem cell-derived NKX6.1-expressing pancreatic progenitor cells accelerates the maturation of insulin-secreting cells in vivo
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are considered a potential alternative to cadaveric islets as a source of transplantable cells for treating patients with diabetes. We previously described a differentiation protocol to generate pancreatic progenitor cells from hESCs,composed of mainly pancreatic endoderm (PDX1/NKX6.1-positive),endocrine precursors (NKX2.2/synaptophysin-positive,hormone/NKX6.1-negative),and polyhormonal cells (insulin/glucagon-positive,NKX6.1-negative). However,the relative contributions of NKX6.1-negative versus NKX6.1-positive cell fractions to the maturation of functional β-cells remained unclear. To address this question,we generated two distinct pancreatic progenitor cell populations using modified differentiation protocols. Prior to transplant,both populations contained a high proportion of PDX1-expressing cells (˜85%-90%) but were distinguished by their relatively high (˜80%) or low (˜25%) expression of NKX6.1. NKX6.1-high and NKX6.1-low progenitor populations were transplanted subcutaneously within macroencapsulation devices into diabetic mice. Mice transplanted with NKX6.1-low cells remained hyperglycemic throughout the 5-month post-transplant period whereas diabetes was reversed in NKX6.1-high recipients within 3 months. Fasting human C-peptide levels were similar between groups throughout the study,but only NKX6.1-high grafts displayed robust meal-,glucose- and arginine-responsive insulin secretion as early as 3 months post-transplant. NKX6.1-low recipients displayed elevated fasting glucagon levels. Theracyte devices from both groups contained almost exclusively pancreatic endocrine tissue,but NKX6.1-high grafts contained a greater proportion of insulin-positive and somatostatin-positive cells,whereas NKX6.1-low grafts contained mainly glucagon-expressing cells. Insulin-positive cells in NKX6.1-high,but not NKX6.1-low grafts expressed nuclear MAFA. Collectively,this study demonstrates that a pancreatic endoderm-enriched population can mature into highly functional β-cells with only a minor contribution from the endocrine subpopulation.

Regulation of developmental competence and commitment towards the definitive endoderm lineage in human embryonic stem cells.
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can self-renew and become all three germ layers. Nodal/Activin signaling specifies developmental status in hESCs: moderate Nodal/Activin signaling maintains pluripotency,while enhancement and inhibition promote definitive endoderm (DE) and neuroectoderm (NE) development,respectively. However,how modulation of Nodal/Activin signaling influences developmental competence and commitment toward specific lineages is still unclear. Here,we showed that enhancement of Nodal/Activin signaling for 4 days was necessary and sufficient to upregulate DE markers,while it diminished the upregulation of NE markers by inhibition of Nodal/Activin signaling. This suggests that after 4 days of enhanced Nodal/Activin signaling,hESCs are committed to the DE lineage and have lost competence toward the NE lineage. In contrast,inhibition of Nodal/Activin signaling using LY364947 for 2 days was sufficient to impair competence toward the DE lineage,although cells were still able to activate LEFTY1 and NODAL,direct targets of Nodal/Activin signaling. Expression analyses indicated that the levels of pluripotency regulators NANOG and POU5F1 were significantly diminished by 2 days of LY364947 treatment,although the expression of NANOG,but not POU5F1,was restored immediately upon Activin A treatment. Thus,downregulation of POU5F1 coincided with the abrogation of DE competence caused by inhibition of Nodal/Activin signaling.

Conserved Chromosome 2q31 Conformations Are Associated with Transcriptional Regulation of GAD1 GABA Synthesis Enzyme and Altered in Prefrontal Cortex of Subjects with Schizophrenia.
Little is known about chromosomal loopings involving proximal promoter and distal enhancer elements regulating GABAergic gene expression,including changes in schizophrenia and other psychiatric conditions linked to altered inhibition. Here,we map in human chromosome 2q31 the 3D configuration of 200 kb of linear sequence encompassing the GAD1 GABA synthesis enzyme gene locus,and we describe a loop formation involving the GAD1 transcription start site and intergenic noncoding DNA elements facilitating reporter gene expression. The GAD1-TSS(-50kbLoop) was enriched with nucleosomes epigenetically decorated with the transcriptional mark,histone H3 trimethylated at lysine 4,and was weak or absent in skin fibroblasts and pluripotent stem cells compared with neuronal cultures differentiated from them. In the prefrontal cortex of subjects with schizophrenia,GAD1-TSS(-50kbLoop) was decreased compared with controls,in conjunction with downregulated GAD1 expression. We generated transgenic mice expressing Gad2 promoter-driven green fluorescent protein-conjugated histone H2B and confirmed that Gad1-TSS(-55kbLoop),the murine homolog to GAD1-TSS(-50kbLoop),is a chromosomal conformation specific for GABAergic neurons. In primary neuronal culture,Gad1-TSS(-55kbLoop) and Gad1 expression became upregulated when neuronal activity was increased. We conclude that 3D genome architectures,including chromosomal loopings for promoter-enhancer interactions involved in the regulation of GABAergic gene expression,are conserved between the rodent and primate brain,and subject to developmental and activity-dependent regulation,and disordered in some cases with schizophrenia. More broadly,the findings presented here draw a connection between noncoding DNA,spatial genome architecture,and neuronal plasticity in development and disease.
