Methods for culturing mouse and human embryonic stem cells
Mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) were first derived and cultured almost 30 years ago and ever since have been valuable tools for creating knockout mice and for studying early mammalian development. More recently (1998),human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have been derived from blastocysts,and numerous methods have evolved to culture hESCs in vitro in both complex and defined media. hESCs are especially important at this time as they could potentially be used to treat degenerative diseases and to access the toxicity of new drugs and environmental chemicals. For both human and mouse ESCs,fibroblast feeder layers are often used at some phase in the culturing protocol. The feeders - often mouse embryonic fibroblasts (mEFs) - provide a substrate that increases plating efficiency,helps maintain pluripotency,and facilitates survival and growth of the stem cells. Various protocols for culturing embryonic stem cells from both species are available with newer trends moving toward feeder-free and serum-free culture. The purpose of this chapter is to provide basic protocol information on the isolation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts and establishment of feeder layers,the culture of mESCs on both mEFs and on gelatin in serum-containing medium,and the culture of hESCs in defined media on both mEFs (hESC culture medium) and Matrigel (mTeSR). These basic protocols are intended for researchers wanting to develop stem cell research in their labs. These protocols have been tested in our laboratory and work well. They can be modified and adapted for any relevant user's particular purpose.

Development of humanized culture medium with plant-derived serum replacement for human pluripotent stem cells.
For human embryonic stem cells (ESC) to be used in cell replacement therapies,they must be grown under good manufacturing conditions in a chemically defined medium that lacks animal proteins. This study examined the ability of a newly designed medium containing the plant-derived serum replacement VegetaCell and other reagents of human origin to support undifferentiated growth and pluripotency of human ESC. This medium was tested in several culture systems,using human fibroblasts as a feeder layer or Matrigel in a feeder-free culture. Even under the most stringent feeder-free conditions without conditioned medium,human ESC exhibited an undifferentiated morphology,expressed markers of undifferentiated cells,demonstrated high alkaline phosphatase activity and multilineage differentiation and retained a normal karyotype. Compared with human ESC grown in standard culture conditions,human ESC maintained in humanized VegetaCell medium show longer cell cycles and decreased cell death. The availability of an animal protein-free medium supplemented with the low-cost VegetaCell reagent expands the repertoire of media for culturing human ESC as well as induced pluripotent stem cells for drug testing and cell replacement therapy.

A novel Serum-Free monolayer culture for orderly hematopoietic differentiation of human pluripotent cells via mesodermal progenitors
Elucidating the in vitro differentiation of human embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells is important for understanding both normal and pathological hematopoietic development in vivo. For this purpose,a robust and simple hematopoietic differentiation system that can faithfully trace in vivo hematopoiesis is necessary. In this study,we established a novel serum-free monolayer culture that can trace the in vivo hematopoietic pathway from ES/iPS cells to functional definitive blood cells via mesodermal progenitors. Stepwise tuning of exogenous cytokine cocktails induced the hematopoietic mesodermal progenitors via primitive streak cells. These progenitors were then differentiated into various cell lineages depending on the hematopoietic cytokines present. Moreover,single cell deposition assay revealed that common bipotential hemoangiogenic progenitors were induced in our culture. Our system provides a new,robust,and simple method for investigating the mechanisms of mesodermal and hematopoietic differentiation.

Gene correction for SCID-X1 in long-term hematopoietic stem cells.
Gene correction in human long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs) could be an effective therapy for monogenic diseases of the blood and immune system. Here we describe an approach for X-linked sSevere cCombined iImmunodeficiency (SCID-X1) using targeted integration of a cDNA into the endogenous start codon to functionally correct disease-causing mutations throughout the gene. Using a CRISPR-Cas9/AAV6 based strategy,we achieve up to 20{\%} targeted integration frequencies in LT-HSCs. As measures of the lack of toxicity we observe no evidence of abnormal hematopoiesis following transplantation and no evidence of off-target mutations using a high-fidelity Cas9 as a ribonucleoprotein complex. We achieve high levels of targeting frequencies (median 45{\%}) in CD34+ HSPCs from six SCID-X1 patients and demonstrate rescue of lymphopoietic defect in a patient derived HSPC population in vitro and in vivo. In sum,our study provides specificity,toxicity and efficacy data supportive of clinical development of genome editing to treat SCID-Xl.

Interleukin-1 regulates hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells in the midgestation mouse fetal liver.
BACKGROUND: Hematopoietic progenitors are generated in the yolk sac and aorta-gonad-mesonephros region during early mouse development. At embryonic day 10.5 the first hematopoietic stem cells emerge in the aorta-gonad-mesonephros. Subsequently,hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors are found in the fetal liver. The fetal liver is a potent hematopoietic site,playing an important role in the expansion and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors and hematopoietic stem cells. However,little is known concerning the regulation of fetal liver hematopoietic stem cells. In particular,the role of cytokines such as interleukin-1 in the regulation of hematopoietic stem cells in the embryo has been largely unexplored. Recently,we observed that the adult pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 is involved in regulating aorta-gonad-mesonephros hematopoietic progenitor and hematopoietic stem cell activity. Therefore,we set out to investigate whether interleukin-1 also plays a role in regulating fetal liver progenitor cells and hematopoietic stem cells. DESIGN AND METHODS: We examined the interleukin-1 ligand and receptor expression pattern in the fetal liver. The effects of interleukin-1 on hematopoietic progenitor cells and hematopoietic stem cells were studied by FACS and transplantation analyses of fetal liver explants,and in vivo effects on hematopoietic stem cell and progenitors were studied in Il1r1(-/-) embryos. RESULTS: We show that fetal liver hematopoietic progenitor cells express the IL-1RI and that interleukin-1 increases fetal liver hematopoiesis,progenitor cell activity and promotes hematopoietic cell survival. Moreover,we show that in Il1r1(-/-) embryos,hematopoietic stem cell activity is impaired and myeloid progenitor activity is increased. CONCLUSIONS: The IL-1 ligand and receptor are expressed in the midgestation liver and act in the physiological regulation of fetal liver hematopoietic progenitor cells and hematopoietic stem cells.

Lentiviral vectors containing an enhancer-less ubiquitously acting chromatin opening element (UCOE) provide highly reproducible and stable transgene expression in hematopoietic cells.
Ubiquitously acting chromatin opening elements (UCOEs) consist of methylation-free CpG islands encompassing dual divergently transcribed promoters of housekeeping genes that have been shown to confer resistance to transcriptional silencing and to produce consistent and stable transgene expression in tissue culture systems. To develop improved strategies for hematopoietic cell gene therapy,we have assessed the potential of the novel human HNRPA2B1-CBX3 UCOE (A2UCOE) within the context of a self-inactivating (SIN) lentiviral vector. Unlike viral promoters,the enhancer-less A2UCOE gave rise to populations of cells that expressed a reporter transgene at a highly reproducible level. The efficiency of expression per vector genome was also markedly increased in vivo compared with vectors incorporating either spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) or cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoters,suggesting a relative resistance to silencing. Furthermore,an A2UCOE-IL2RG vector fully restored the IL-2 signaling pathway within IL2RG-deficient human cells in vitro and successfully rescued the X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) phenotype in a mouse model of this disease. These data indicate that the A2UCOE displays highly reliable transcriptional activity within a lentiviral vector,largely overcoming insertion-site position effects and giving rise to therapeutically relevant levels of gene expression. These properties are achieved in the absence of classic enhancer activity and therefore may confer a high safety profile.

MOZ-Mediated Repression of p16 INK 4 a Is Critical for the Self-Renewal of Neural and Hematopoietic Stem Cells
Although inhibition of p16(INK4a) expression is critical to preserve the proliferative capacity of stem cells,the molecular mechanisms responsible for silencing p16(INK4a) expression remain poorly characterized. Here,we show that the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) monocytic leukemia zinc finger protein (MOZ) controls the proliferation of both hematopoietic and neural stem cells by modulating the transcriptional repression of p16(INK4a) . In the absence of the HAT activity of MOZ,expression of p16(INK4a) is upregulated in progenitor and stem cells,inducing an early entrance into replicative senescence. Genetic deletion of p16(INK4a) reverses the proliferative defect in both Moz(HAT) (-) (/) (-) hematopoietic and neural progenitors. Our results suggest a critical requirement for MOZ HAT activity to silence p16(INK4a) expression and to protect stem cells from early entrance into replicative senescence.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1a1 is dispensable for stem cell function in the mouse hematopoietic and nervous systems.
High levels of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity have been proposed to be a common feature of stem cells. Adult hematopoietic,neural,and cancer stem cells have all been reported to have high ALDH activity,detected using Aldefluor,a fluorogenic substrate for ALDH. This activity has been attributed to Aldh1a1,an enzyme that is expressed at high levels in stem cells and that has been suggested to regulate stem cell function. Nonetheless,Aldh1a1 function in stem cells has never been tested genetically. We observed that Aldh1a1 was preferentially expressed in mouse hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and expression increased with age. Hematopoietic cells from Aldh1a1-deficient mice exhibited increased sensitivity to cyclophosphamide in a non-cell-autonomous manner,consistent with its role in cyclophosphamide metabolism in the liver. However,Aldh1a1 deficiency did not affect hematopoiesis,HSC function,or the capacity to reconstitute irradiated recipients in young or old adult mice. Aldh1a1 deficiency also did not affect Aldefluor staining of hematopoietic cells. Finally,Aldh1a1 deficiency did not affect the function of stem cells from the adult central or peripheral nervous systems. Aldh1a1 is not a critical regulator of adult stem cell function or Aldefluor staining in mice.

Chemically defined serum-free and xeno-free media for multiple cell lineages.
Cell culture is one of the most common methods used to recapitulate a human disease environment in a laboratory setting. Cell culture techniques are used to grow and maintain cells of various types including those derived from primary tissues,such as stem cells and cancer tumors. However,a major confounding factor with cell culture is the use of serum and animal (xeno) products in the media. The addition of animal products introduces batch and lot variations that lead to experimental variability,confounds studies with therapeutic outcomes for cultured cells,and represents a major cost associated with cell culture. Here we report a commercially available serum-free,albumin-free,and xeno free (XF) media (Neuro-Pure(TM)) that is more cost-effective than other commercial medias. Neuro-Pure was used to maintain and differentiate various cells of neuronal lineages,fibroblasts,as well as specific cancer cell lines; without the use of contaminants such serum,albumin,and animal products. Neuro-Pure allows for a controlled and reproducible cell culture environment that is applicable to translational medicine and general tissue culture.

Isolation of human and mouse myeloid-derived suppressor cells for metabolic analysis.
Metabolic reprogramming is associated with myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) immunosuppressive function. Here,we outline the process for acquiring MDSCs from human and murine sources for subsequent analysis of fatty acid oxidation,oxidative phosphorylation,and glycolysis using the Seahorse XFe 96 Analyzer. Murine MDSCs can be isolated directly from tumor-bearing mice or derived through IL-6 and GM-CSF culture of bone marrow cells from non-tumor-bearing mice. To generate human MDSCs,peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can be cultured with IL-6 and GM-CSF. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol,please refer to Mohammadpour et al. (2021).
