Optimal strategy for obtaining routine chromosome analysis by using negative fractions of CD138 enriched plasma cells.
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is superior to routine chromosome analysis (RCA) in detecting important prognostic genetic abnormalities in plasma cell dyscrasia (PCD); however,its sensitivity is hampered due to paucity of plasma cells (PC) in whole bone marrow (BM). Studies showed that the abnormality detection rate in enriched plasma cells (EPC) is greater than unselected plasma cells (UPC),but purification techniques are limiting to only FISH when sample volumes are inadequate. Not performing RCA may compromise patient care since RCA is equally important for detecting non-PC related abnormalities when the diagnosis is undefined. To resolve this critical issue,we designed a study where an immuno-magnetic CD138 enriched positive selection was used for FISH while the negative fraction (NF) was used to retrieve other myeloid elements for RCA. Parallel FISH studies were performed using UPC and CD138 EPC,while karyotyping was achieved using whole BM and discarded myeloid elements from the NF. Results showed that the abnormality rate of EPC was doubled compared to UPC for FISH,and CA displayed 100% success rate using the NF. PCD related chromosome abnormalities were confined to whole BM while non-PCD related abnormalities were found in both whole BM and NF. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of using the NF for RCA.

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.

A portable platform for stepwise hematopoiesis from human pluripotent stem cells within PET-reinforced collagen sponges.
Various systems for differentiating hematopoietic cells from human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) have been developed,although none have been fully optimized. In this report,we describe the development of a novel three-dimensional system for differentiating hematopoietic cells from PSCs using collagen sponges (CSs) reinforced with poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers as a scaffold. PSCs seeded onto CSs were differentiated in a stepwise manner with appropriate cytokines under serum-free and feeder-free conditions. This process yielded several lineages of floating hematopoietic cells repeatedly for more than 1 month. On immunohistochemical staining,we detected CD34+ cells and CD45+ cells in the surface and cavities of the CS. Taking advantage of the portability of this system,we were able to culture multiple CSs together floating in medium,making it possible to harvest large numbers of hematopoietic cells repeatedly. Given these findings,we suggest that this novel three-dimensional culture system may be useful in the large-scale culture of PSC-derived hematopoietic cells.

Ion channel expression patterns in glioblastoma stem cells with functional and therapeutic implications for malignancy
Ion channels and transporters have increasingly recognized roles in cancer progression through the regulation of cell proliferation,migration,and death. Glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) are a source of tumor formation and recurrence in glioblastoma multiforme,a highly aggressive brain cancer,suggesting that ion channel expression may be perturbed in this population. However,little is known about the expression and functional relevance of ion channels that may contribute to GSC malignancy. Using RNA sequencing,we assessed the enrichment of ion channels in GSC isolates and non-tumor neural cell types. We identified a unique set of GSC-enriched ion channels using differential expression analysis that is also associated with distinct gene mutation signatures. In support of potential clinical relevance,expression of selected GSC-enriched ion channels evaluated in human glioblastoma databases of The Cancer Genome Atlas and Ivy Glioblastoma Atlas Project correlated with patient survival times. Finally,genetic knockdown as well as pharmacological inhibition of individual or classes of GSC-enriched ion channels constrained growth of GSCs compared to normal neural stem cells. This first-in-kind global examination characterizes ion channels enriched in GSCs and explores their potential clinical relevance to glioblastoma molecular subtypes,gene mutations,survival outcomes,regional tumor expression,and experimental responses to loss-of-function. Together,the data support the potential biological and therapeutic impact of ion channels on GSC malignancy and provide strong rationale for further examination of their mechanistic and therapeutic importance.

New genes for accurate normalization of qRT-PCR results in study of iPS and iPS-derived cells.
iPSC-derived cells (from induced pluripotent stem cells) are a useful source that provide a powerful and widely accepted tool for the study of various types of human cells in vitro. Indeed,iPSC-derived cells from patients with hereditary diseases have been shown to reproduce the hallmarks of these diseases in vitro,phenotypes that can then also be manipulated in vitro. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is often used to characterize the progress of iPSC differentiation,validate mature cell types and to determine levels of pathological markers. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is used to quantify mRNA levels. This method requires some way of normalizing the data,typically by relating the obtained levels of gene expression to the levels of expression of a house keeping gene"�

Long non-coding RNAs as surrogate indicators for chemical stress responses in human-induced pluripotent stem cells.
In this study,we focused on two biological products as ideal tools for toxicological assessment: long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). lncRNAs are an important class of pervasive non-protein-coding transcripts involved in the molecular mechanisms associated with responses to cellular stresses. hiPSCs possess the capabilities of self-renewal and differentiation into multiple cell types,and they are free of the ethical issues associated with human embryonic stem cells. Here,we identified six novel lncRNAs (CDKN2B-AS1,MIR22HG,GABPB1-AS1,FLJ33630,LINC00152,and LINC0541471v2) that respond to model chemical stresses (cycloheximide,hydrogen peroxide,cadmium,or arsenic) in hiPSCs. Our results indicated that the lncRNAs responded to general and specific chemical stresses. Compared with typical mRNAs such as p53-related mRNAs,the lncRNAs highly and rapidly responded to chemical stresses. We propose that these lncRNAs have the potential to be surrogate indicators of chemical stress responses in hiPSCs.

ROCK inhibitor is not required for embryoid body formation from singularized human embryonic stem cells
We report a technology to form human embryoid bodies (hEBs) from singularized human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) without the use of the p160 rho-associated coiled-coil kinase inhibitor (ROCKi) or centrifugation (spin). hEB formation was tested under four conditions: +ROCKi/+spin,+ROCKi/-spin,-ROCKi/+spin,and -ROCKi/-spin. Cell suspensions of BG01V/hOG and H9 hESC lines were pipetted into non-adherent hydrogel substrates containing defined microwell arrays. hEBs of consistent size and spherical geometry can be formed in each of the four conditions,including the -ROCKi/-spin condition. The hEBs formed under the -ROCKi/-spin condition differentiated to develop the three embryonic germ layers and tissues derived from each of the germ layers. This simplified hEB production technique offers homogeneity in hEB size and shape to support synchronous differentiation,elimination of the ROCKi xeno-factor and rate-limiting centrifugation treatment,and low-cost scalability,which will directly support automated,large-scale production of hEBs and hESC-derived cells needed for clinical,research,or therapeutic applications.

Tenascin-C: a novel candidate marker for cancer stem cells in glioblastoma identified by tissue microarrays.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor,with dismal survival outcomes. Recently,cancer stem cells (CSCs) have been demonstrated to play a role in therapeutic resistance and are considered to be the most likely cause of cancer relapse. The identification of CSCs is an important step toward finding new and effective ways to treat GBM. Tenascin-C (TNC) protein has been identified as a potential marker for CSCs in gliomas based on previous work. Here,we have investigated the expression of TNC in tissue microarrays including 17 GBMs,18 WHO grade III astrocytomas,15 WHO grade II astrocytomas,4 WHO grade I astrocytomas,and 7 normal brain tissue samples by immunohistochemical staining. TNC expression was found to be highly associated with the grade of astrocytoma. It has a high expression level in most of the grade III astrocytomas and GBMs analyzed and a very low expression in most grade II astrocytomas,whereas it is undetectable in grade I astrocytomas and normal brain tissues. Double-immunofluorescence staining for TNC and CD133 in GBM tissues revealed that there was a high overlap between theses two positive populations. The results were further confirmed by flow cytometry analysis of TNC and CD133 in GBM-derived stem-like neurospheres in vitro. A limiting dilution assay demonstrated that the sphere formation ability of CD133(+)/TNC(+) and CD133(-)/TNC(+) cell populations is much higher than that of the CD133(+)/TNC(-) and CD133(-)/TNC(-) populations. These results suggest that TNC is not only a potential prognostic marker for GBM but also a potential marker for glioma CSCs,where the TNC(+) population is identified as a CSC population overlapping with part of the CD133(-) cell population.

A method for quantifying normal human mammary epithelial stem cells with in vivo regenerative ability.
Previous studies have demonstrated that normal mouse mammary tissue contains a rare subset of mammary stem cells. We now describe a method for detecting an analogous subpopulation in normal human mammary tissue. Dissociated cells are suspended with fibroblasts in collagen gels,which are then implanted under the kidney capsule of hormone-treated immunodeficient mice. After 2-8 weeks,the gels contain bilayered mammary epithelial structures,including luminal and myoepithelial cells,their in vitro clonogenic progenitors and cells that produce similar structures in secondary transplants. The regenerated clonogenic progenitors provide an objective indicator of input mammary stem cell activity and allow the frequency and phenotype of these human mammary stem cells to be determined by limiting-dilution analysis. This new assay procedure sets the stage for investigations of mechanisms regulating normal human mammary stem cells (and possibly stem cells in other tissues) and their relationship to human cancer stem cell populations.

The RB family is required for the self-renewal and survival of human embryonic stem cells.
The mechanisms ensuring the long-term self-renewal of human embryonic stem cells are still only partly understood,limiting their use in cellular therapies. Here we found that increased activity of the RB cell cycle inhibitor in human embryonic stem cells induces cell cycle arrest,differentiation and cell death. Conversely,inactivation of the entire RB family (RB,p107 and p130) in human embryonic stem cells triggers G2/M arrest and cell death through functional activation of the p53 pathway and the cell cycle inhibitor p21. Differences in E2F target gene activation upon loss of RB family function between human embryonic stem cells,mouse embryonic stem cells and human fibroblasts underscore key differences in the cell cycle regulatory networks of human embryonic stem cells. Finally,loss of RB family function promotes genomic instability in both human and mouse embryonic stem cells,uncoupling cell cycle defects from chromosomal instability. These experiments indicate that a homeostatic level of RB activity is essential for the self-renewal and the survival of human embryonic stem cells.

Site-specific genome editing for correction of induced pluripotent stem cells derived from dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
Genome editing with engineered site-specific endonucleases involves nonhomologous end-joining,leading to reading frame disruption. The approach is applicable to dominant negative disorders,which can be treated simply by knocking out the mutant allele,while leaving the normal allele intact. We applied this strategy to dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DDEB),which is caused by a dominant negative mutation in the COL7A1 gene encoding type VII collagen (COL7). We performed genome editing with TALENs and CRISPR/Cas9 targeting the mutation,c.80688084delinsGA. We then cotransfected Cas9 and guide RNA expression vectors expressed with GFP and DsRed,respectively,into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated from DDEB fibroblasts. After sorting,90% of the iPSCs were edited,and we selected four gene-edited iPSC lines for further study. These iPSCs were differentiated into keratinocytes and fibroblasts secreting COL7. RT-PCR and Western blot analyses revealed gene-edited COL7 with frameshift mutations degraded at the protein level. In addition,we confirmed that the gene-edited truncated COL7 could neither associate with normal COL7 nor undergo triple helix formation. Our data establish the feasibility of mutation site-specific genome editing in dominant negative disorders.

Exploring continuous and integrated strategies for the up- and downstream processing of human mesenchymal stem cells.
The integration of up- and downstream unit operations can result in the elimination of hold steps,thus decreasing the footprint,and ultimately can create robust closed system operations. This type of design is desirable for the bioprocess of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC),where high numbers of pure cells,at low volumes,need to be delivered for therapy applications. This study reports a proof of concept of the integration of a continuous perfusion culture in bioreactors with a tangential flow filtration (TFF) system for the concentration and washing of hMSC. Moreover,we have also explored a continuous alternative for concentrating hMSC. Results show that expanding cells in a continuous perfusion operation mode provided a higher expansion ratio,and led to a shift in cells' metabolism. TFF operated either in continuous or discontinuous allowed to concentrate cells,with high cell recovery (>80%) and viability (>95%); furthermore,continuous TFF permitted to operate longer with higher cell concentrations. Continuous diafiltration led to higher protein clearance (98%) with lower cell death,when comparing to discontinuous diafiltration. Overall,an integrated process allowed for a shorter process time,recovering 70% of viable hMSC (>95%),with no changes in terms of morphology,immunophenotype,proliferation capacity and multipotent differentiation potential.
