Enhanced CLIP Uncovers IMP Protein-RNA Targets in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Important for Cell Adhesion and Survival
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) require precise control of post-transcriptional RNA networks to maintain proliferation and survival. Using enhanced UV crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (eCLIP),we identify RNA targets of the IMP/IGF2BP family of RNA-binding proteins in hPSCs. At the broad region and binding site levels,IMP1 and IMP2 show reproducible binding to a large and overlapping set of 3' UTR-enriched targets. RNA Bind-N-seq applied to recombinant full-length IMP1 and IMP2 reveals CA-rich motifs that are enriched in eCLIP-defined binding sites. We observe that IMP1 loss in hPSCs recapitulates IMP1 phenotypes,including a reduction in cell adhesion and increase in cell death. For cell adhesion,we find IMP1 maintains levels of integrin mRNA specifically regulating RNA stability of ITGB5 in hPSCs. Additionally,we show that IMP1 can be linked to hPSC survival via direct target BCL2. Thus,transcriptome-wide binding profiles identify hPSC targets modulating well-characterized IMP1 roles.

Optimized Approaches for Generation of Integration-free iPSCs from Human Urine-Derived Cells with Small Molecules and Autologous Feeder
Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from human urine-derived cells (hUCs) provides a convenient and non-invasive way to obtain patient-specific iPSCs. However,many isolated hUCs exhibit very poor proliferation and are difficult to reprogram. In this study,we optimized reprogramming approaches for hUCs with very poor proliferation. We report here that a compound cocktail containing cyclic pifithrin-a (a P53 inhibitor),A-83-01,CHIR99021,thiazovivin,NaB,and PD0325901 significantly improves the reprogramming efficiency (170-fold more) for hUCs. In addition,we showed that replacement of Matrigel with autologous hUC feeders can overcome the reprogramming failure due to the massive cell death that occurs during delivery of reprogramming factors. In summary,we describe improved approaches to enable iPSC generation from hUCs that were otherwise difficult to reprogram,a valuable asset for banking patient-specific iPSCs.

Generation and characterisation of scalable and stable human pluripotent stem cell-derived microvascular-like endothelial cells for cardiac applications
Coronary microvascular disease (CMD) and its progression towards major adverse coronary events pose a significant health challenge. Accurate in vitro investigation of CMD requires a robust cell model that faithfully represents the cells within the cardiac microvasculature. Human pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells (hPSC-ECs) offer great potential; however,they are traditionally derived via differentiation protocols that are not readily scalable and are not specified towards the microvasculature. Here,we report the development and comprehensive characterisation of a scalable 3D protocol enabling the generation of phenotypically stable cardiac hPSC-microvascular-like ECs (hPSC-CMVECs) and cardiac pericyte-like cells. These were derived by growing vascular organoids within 3D stirred tank bioreactors and subjecting the emerging 3D hPSC-ECs to high-concentration VEGF-A treatment (3DV). Not only did this promote phenotypic stability of the 3DV hPSC-ECs; single cell-RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) revealed the pronounced expression of cardiac endothelial- and microvascular-associated genes. Further,the generated mural cells attained from the vascular organoid exhibited markers characteristic of cardiac pericytes. Thus,we present a suitable cell model for investigating the cardiac microvasculature as well as the endothelial-dependent and -independent mechanisms of CMD. Moreover,owing to their phenotypic stability,cardiac specificity,and high angiogenic potential,the cells described within would also be well suited for cardiac tissue engineering applications.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10456-024-09929-5.

Evaluating the potential of poly(beta-amino ester) nanoparticles for reprogramming human fibroblasts to become induced pluripotent stem cells
BACKGROUND: Gene delivery can potentially be used as a therapeutic for treating genetic diseases,including neurodegenerative diseases,as well as an enabling technology for regenerative medicine. A central challenge in many gene delivery applications is having a safe and effective delivery method. We evaluated the use of a biodegradable poly(beta-amino ester) nanoparticle-based nonviral protocol and compared this with an electroporation-based approach to deliver episomal plasmids encoding reprogramming factors for generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from human fibroblasts.backslashnbackslashnMETHODS: A polymer library was screened to identify the polymers most promising for gene delivery to human fibroblasts. Feeder-independent culturing protocols were developed for nanoparticle-based and electroporation-based reprogramming. The cells reprogrammed by both polymeric nanoparticle-based and electroporation-based nonviral methods were characterized by analysis of pluripotency markers and karyotypic stability. The hiPSC-like cells were further differentiated toward the neural lineage to test their potential for neurodegenerative retinal disease modeling.backslashnbackslashnRESULTS: 1-(3-aminopropyl)-4-methylpiperazine end-terminated poly(1,4-butanediol diacry-late-co-4-amino-1-butanol) polymer (B4S4E7) self-assembled with plasmid DNA to form nanoparticles that were more effective than leading commercially available reagents,including Lipofectamine® 2000,FuGENE® HD,and 25 kDa branched polyethylenimine,for nonviral gene transfer. B4S4E7 nanoparticles showed effective gene delivery to IMR-90 human primary fibroblasts and to dermal fibroblasts derived from a patient with retinitis pigmentosa,and enabled coexpression of exogenously delivered genes,as is needed for reprogramming. The karyotypically normal hiPSC-like cells generated by conventional electroporation,but not by poly(beta-amino ester) reprogramming,could be differentiated toward the neuronal lineage,specifically pseudostratified optic cups.backslashnbackslashnCONCLUSION: This study shows that certain nonviral reprogramming methods may not necessarily be safer than viral approaches and that maximizing exogenous gene expression of reprogramming factors is not sufficient to ensure successful reprogramming.

Identifying developmental toxicity pathways for a subset of ToxCast chemicals using human embryonic stem cells and metabolomics
Metabolomics analysis was performed on the supernatant of human embryonic stem (hES) cell cultures exposed to a blinded subset of 11 chemicals selected from the chemical library of EPA's ToxCast™ chemical screening and prioritization research project. Metabolites from hES cultures were evaluated for known and novel signatures that may be indicative of developmental toxicity. Significant fold changes in endogenous metabolites were detected for 83 putatively annotated mass features in response to the subset of ToxCast chemicals. The annotations were mapped to specific human metabolic pathways. This revealed strong effects on pathways for nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism,pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis,glutathione metabolism,and arginine and proline metabolism pathways. Predictivity for adverse outcomes in mammalian prenatal developmental toxicity studies used ToxRefDB and other sources of information,including Stemina Biomarker Discovery's predictive DevTox® model trained on 23 pharmaceutical agents of known developmental toxicity and differing potency. The model initially predicted developmental toxicity from the blinded ToxCast compounds in concordance with animal data with 73% accuracy. Retraining the model with data from the unblinded test compounds at one concentration level increased the predictive accuracy for the remaining concentrations to 83%. These preliminary results on a 11-chemical subset of the ToxCast chemical library indicate that metabolomics analysis of the hES secretome provides information valuable for predictive modeling and mechanistic understanding of mammalian developmental toxicity.

Alginate microcapsule as a 3D platform for the efficient differentiation of human embryonic stem cells to dopamine neurons
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are emerging as an attractive alternative source for cell replacement therapy since the cells can be expanded in culture indefinitely and differentiated into any cell types in the body. In order to optimize cell-to-cell interaction,cell proliferation and differentiation into specific lineages as well as tissue organization,it is important to provide a microenvironment for the hESCs which mimics the stem cell niche. One approach is to provide a three-dimensional (3D) environment such as encapsulation. We present an approach to culture and differentiate hESCs into midbrain dopamine (mdDA) neurons in a 3D microenvironment using alginate microcapsules for the first time. A detailed gene and protein expression analysis during neuronal differentiation showed an increased gene and protein expression of various specific DA neuronal markers,particularly tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) by textgreater100 folds after 2weeks and at least 50% higher expression after 4weeks respectively,compared to cells differentiated under conventional two-dimensional (2D) platform. The encapsulated TH+ cells co-expressed mdDA neuronal markers,forkhead box protein A-2 (FOXA2) and pituitary homeobox-3 (PITX3) after 4weeks and secreted approximately 60pg/ml/106 cells higher DA level when induced. We propose that the 3D platform facilitated an early onset of DA neuronal generation compared to that with conventional 2D system which also secretes more DA under potassium-induction. It is a very useful model to study the proliferation and directed differentiation of hESCs to various lineages,particularly to mdDA neurons. This 3D system also allows the separation of feeder cells from hESCs during the process of differentiation and also has potential for immune-isolation during transplantation studies. ?? 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Functionalizing Ascl1 with Novel Intracellular Protein Delivery Technology for Promoting Neuronal Differentiation of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Pluripotent stem cells can become any cell type found in the body. Accordingly,one of the major challenges when working with pluripotent stem cells is producing a highly homogenous population of differentiated cells,which can then be used for downstream applications such as cell therapies or drug screening. The transcription factor Ascl1 plays a key role in neural development and previous work has shown that Ascl1 overexpression using viral vectors can reprogram fibroblasts directly into neurons. Here we report on how a recombinant version of the Ascl1 protein functionalized with intracellular protein delivery technology (Ascl1-IPTD) can be used to rapidly differentiate human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into neurons. We first evaluated a range of Ascl1-IPTD concentrations to determine the most effective amount for generating neurons from hiPSCs cultured in serum free media. Next,we looked at the frequency of Ascl1-IPTD supplementation in the media on differentiation and found that one time supplementation is sufficient enough to trigger the neural differentiation process. Ascl1-IPTD was efficiently taken up by the hiPSCs and enabled rapid differentiation into TUJ1-positive and NeuN-positive populations with neuronal morphology after 8 days. After 12 days of culture,hiPSC-derived neurons produced by Ascl1-IPTD treatment exhibited greater neurite length and higher numbers of branch points compared to neurons derived using a standard neural progenitor differentiation protocol. This work validates Ascl1-IPTD as a powerful tool for engineering neural tissue from pluripotent stem cells.

Transgenic human ES and iPS reporter cell lines for identification and selection of pluripotent stem cells in vitro
Optimization of pluripotent stem cell expansion and differentiation is facilitated by biological tools that permit non-invasive and dynamic monitoring of pluripotency,and the ability to select for an undifferentiated input cell population. Here we report on the generation and characterisation of clonal human embryonic stem (HES3,H9) and human induced pluripotent stem cell lines (UQEW01i-epifibC11) that have been stably modified with an artificial EOS(C3+) promoter driving expression of EGFP and puromycin resistance-conferring proteins. We show that EGFP expression faithfully reports on the pluripotency status of the cells in these lines and that antibiotic selection allows for an efficient elimination of differentiated cells from the cultures. We demonstrate that the extinction of the expression of the pluripotency reporter during differentiation closely correlates with the decrease in expression of conventional pluripotency markers,such as OCT4 (POU5F1),TRA-1-60 and SSEA4 when screening across conditions with various levels of pluripotency-maintaining or differentiation-inducing signals. We further illustrate the utility of these lines for real-time monitoring of pluripotency in embryoid bodies and microfluidic bioreactors.

Identification of functional endothelial progenitor cells suitable for the treatment of ischemic tissue using human umbilical cord blood.
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) has been used as a potential source of various kinds of stem cells,including hematopoietic stem cells,mesenchymal stem cells,and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs),for a variety of cell therapies. Recently,EPCs were introduced for restoring vascularization in ischemic tissues. An appropriate procedure for isolating EPCs from UCB is a key issue for improving therapeutic efficacy and eliminating the unexpected expansion of nonessential cells. Here we report a novel method for isolating EPCs from UCB by a combination of negative immunoselection and cell culture techniques. In addition,we divided EPCs into 2 subpopulations according to the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity. We found that EPCs with low ALDH activity (Alde-Low) possess a greater ability to proliferate and migrate compared to those with high ALDH activity (Alde-High). Moreover,hypoxia-inducible factor proteins are up-regulated and VEGF,CXCR4,and GLUT-1 mRNAs are increased in Alde-Low EPCs under hypoxic conditions,while the response was not significant in Alde-High EPCs. In fact,the introduction of Alde-Low EPCs significantly reduced tissue damage in ischemia in a mouse flap model. Thus,the introduction of Alde-Low EPCs may be a potential strategy for inducing rapid neovascularization and subsequent regeneration of ischemic tissues.

Expression profiling of purified normal human luminal and myoepithelial breast cells: identification of novel prognostic markers for breast cancer.
The normal duct-lobular system of the breast is lined by two epithelial cell types,inner luminal secretory cells and outer contractile myoepithelial cells. We have generated comprehensive expression profiles of the two normal cell types,using immunomagnetic cell separation and gene expression microarray analysis. The cell-type specificity was confirmed at the protein level by immunohistochemistry in normal breast tissue. New prognostic markers for survival were identified when the luminal- and myoepithelial-specific molecules were evaluated on breast tumor tissue microarrays. Nuclear expression of luminal epithelial marker galectin 3 correlated with a shorter overall survival in these patients,and the expression of SPARC (osteonectin),a myoepithelial marker,was an independent marker of poor prognosis in breast cancers as a whole. These data provide a framework for the interpretation of breast cancer molecular profiling experiments,the identification of potential new diagnostic markers,and development of novel indicators of prognosis.

The Generation of Genetically Engineered Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Overexpressing IFN-? for Future Experimental and Clinically Oriented Studies
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be generated from various adult cells,genetically modified and differentiated into diverse cell populations. Type I interferons (IFN-Is) have multiple immunotherapeutic applications; however,their systemic administration can lead to severe adverse outcomes. One way of overcoming the limitation is to introduce cells able to enter the site of pathology and to produce IFN-Is locally. As a first step towards the generation of such cells,here,we aimed to generate human iPSCs overexpressing interferon-beta (IFNB,IFNB-iPSCs). IFNB-iPSCs were obtained by CRISPR/Cas9 editing of the previously generated iPSC line K7-4Lf. IFNB-iPSCs overexpressed IFNB RNA and produced a functionally active IFN-?. The cells displayed typical iPSC morphology and expressed pluripotency markers. Following spontaneous differentiation,IFNB-iPSCs formed embryoid bodies and upregulated endoderm,mesoderm,and some ectoderm markers. However,an upregulation of key neuroectoderm markers,PAX6 and LHX2,was compromised. A negative effect of IFN-? on iPSC neuroectoderm differentiation was confirmed in parental iPSCs differentiated in the presence of a recombinant IFN-?. The study describes new IFN-?-producing iPSC lines suitable for the generation of various types of IFN-?-producing cells for future experimental and clinical applications,and it unravels an inhibitory effect of IFN-? on stem cell neuroectoderm differentiation.
