Human hepatocyte-derived induced pluripotent stem cells: MYC expression, similarities to human germ cell tumors, and safety issues
textlessptextgreater Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) are a most promising approach to the development of a hepatocyte transplantable mass sufficient to induce long-term correction of inherited liver metabolic diseases,thus avoiding liver transplantation. Their intrinsic self-renewal ability and potential to differentiate into any of the three germ layers identify iPSC as the most promising cell-based therapeutics,but also as drivers of tumor development. Teratoma development currently represents the gold standard to assess iPSC pluripotency. We analyzed the tumorigenic potential of iPSC generated from human hepatocytes (HEP-iPSC) and compared their immunohistochemical profiles to that of tumors developed from fibroblast and hematopoietic stem cell-derived iPSC. HEP-iPSC generated tumors significantly presented more malignant morphological features than reprogrammed fibroblasts or CD34+ iPSC. Moreover,the protooncogene textlessitalictextgreatermyctextless/italictextgreater showed the strongest expression in HEP-iPSC,compared to only faint expression in the other cell subsets. Random integration of transgenes and the use of potent protooncogenes such as textlessitalictextgreatermyctextless/italictextgreater might be a risk factor for malignant tumor development if hepatocytes are used for reprogramming. Nonviral vector delivery systems or reprogramming of cells obtained from less invasive harvesting methods would represent interesting options for future developments in stem cell-based approaches for liver metabolic diseases. textless/ptextgreater

LPS activation is required for migratory activity and antigen presentation by tolerogenic dendritic cells.
Autoimmune pathologies are caused by a breakdown in self-tolerance. Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tolDC) are a promising immunotherapeutic tool for restoring self-tolerance in an antigen-specific manner. Studies about tolDC have focused largely on generating stable maturation-resistant DC,but few have fully addressed questions about the antigen-presenting and migratory capacities of these cells,prerequisites for successful immunotherapy. Here,we investigated whether human tolDC,generated with dexamethasone and the active form of vitamin D3,maintained their tolerogenic function upon activation with LPS (LPS-tolDC),while acquiring the ability to present exogenous autoantigen and to migrate in response to the CCR7 ligand CCL19. LPS activation led to important changes in the tolDC phenotype and function. LPS-tolDC,but not tolDC,expressed the chemokine receptor CCR7 and migrated in response to CCL19. Furthermore,LPS-tolDC were superior to tolDC in their ability to present type II collagen,a candidate autoantigen in rheumatoid arthritis. tolDC and LPS-tolDC had low stimulatory capacity for allogeneic,naïve T cells and skewed T cell polarization toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype,although LPS-tolDC induced significantly higher levels of IL-10 production by T cells. Our finding that LPS activation is essential for inducing migratory and antigen-presenting activity in tolDC is important for optimizing their therapeutic potential.

FACS-Free isolation and purification protocol of mouse prostate epithelial cells for organoid primary culture.
The prostate is a gland that contributes to men's fertility. It is highly responsive to androgens and is often the site of carcinogenesis,as prostate cancer is the most frequent cancer in men in over a hundred countries. To study the normal prostate,few in vitro models exist,and most of them do not express the androgen receptor (AR). To overcome this issue,prostate epithelial cells can be grown in primary culture ex vivo in 2- and 3-dimensional culture (organoids). However,methods to purify these cells often require flow cytometry,thus necessitating specialized instruments and expertise. Herein,we present a detailed protocol for the harvest,purification,and primary culture of mouse prostate epithelial cells to grow prostate organoids ex vivo. This protocol does not require flow cytometry approaches,facilitating its implementation in most research laboratories,and organoids grown with this protocol are highly responsive to androgens. In summary,we present a new simple method that can be used to grow prostate organoids that recapitulate the androgen response of this gland in vivo.

A biallelically active embryonic enhancer dictates GNAS imprinting through allele-specific conformations
Genomic imprinting controls parental allele-specific gene expression via epigenetic mechanisms. Abnormal imprinting at the GNAS gene causes multiple phenotypes,including pseudohypoparathyroidism type-1B (PHP1B),a disorder of multihormone resistance. Microdeletions affecting the neighboring STX16 gene ablate an imprinting control region (STX16-ICR) of GNAS and lead to PHP1B upon maternal but not paternal inheritance. Mechanisms behind this imprinted inheritance mode remain unknown. Here,we show that the STX16-ICR forms different chromatin conformations with each GNAS parental allele and enhances two GNAS promoters in human embryonic stem cells. When these cells differentiate toward proximal renal tubule cells,STX16-ICR loses its effect,accompanied by a transition to a somatic cell-specific GNAS imprinting status. The activity of STX16-ICR depends on an OCT4 motif,whose disruption impacts transcript levels differentially on each allele. Therefore,a biallelically active embryonic enhancer dictates GNAS imprinting via different chromatin conformations,underlying the allele-specific pathogenicity of STX16-ICR microdeletions. STX16 microdeletions cause pseudohypoparathyroidism type-1B only on the maternal allele. Here,the authors show that the allele-specific pathogenicity reflects differential conformations of a biallelically active enhancer dictating GNAS imprinting.

Generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells from umbilical cord matrix and amniotic membrane mesenchymal cells
The umbilical cord and placenta are extra-embryonic tissues of particular interest for regenerative medicine. They share an early developmental origin and are a source of vast amounts of cells with multilineage differentiation potential that are poorly immunogenic and without controversy. Moreover,these cells are likely exempt from incorporated mutations when compared with juvenile or adult donor cells such as skin fibroblasts or keratinocytes. Here we report the efficient generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mesenchymal cells of the umbilical cord matrix (up to 0.4% of the cells became reprogrammed) and the placental amniotic membrane (up to 0.1%) using exogenous factors and a chemical mixture. iPSCs from these 2 tissues homogeneously showed human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-like characteristics including morphology,positive staining for alkaline phosphatase,normal karyotype,and expression of hESC-like markers including Nanog,Rex1,Oct4,TRA-1-60,TRA-1-80,SSEA-3,and SSEA-4. Selected clones also formed embryonic bodies and teratomas containing derivatives of the 3 germ layers,and could as well be readily differentiated into functional motor neurons. Among other things,our cell lines may prove useful for comparisons between iPSCs derived from multiple tissues regarding the extent of the epigenetic reprogramming,differentiation ability,stability of the resulting lineages,and the risk of associated abnormalities.

In-depth characterisation of Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) cells derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC).
Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) has widely been appreciated as a promising tool to model human ocular disease emanating from primary RPE pathology. Here,we describe the successful reprogramming of adult human dermal fibroblasts to iPSCs and their differentiation to pure expandable RPE cells with structural and functional features characteristic for native RPE. Fibroblast cultures were established from skin biopsy material and subsequently reprogrammed following polycistronic lentiviral transduction with OCT4,SOX2,KLF4 and L-Myc. Fibroblast-derived iPSCs showed typical morphology,chromosomal integrity and a distinctive stem cell marker profile. Subsequent differentiation resulted in expandable pigmented hexagonal RPE cells. The cells revealed stable RNA expression of mature RPE markers RPE65,RLBP and BEST1. Immunolabelling verified localisation of BEST1 at the basolateral plasma membrane,and scanning electron microscopy showed typical microvilli at the apical side of iPSC-derived RPE cells. Transepithelial resistance was maintained at high levels during cell culture indicating functional formation of tight junctions. Secretion capacity was demonstrated for VEGF-A. Feeding of porcine photoreceptor outer segments revealed the proper ability of these cells for phagocytosis. IPSC-derived RPE cells largely maintained these properties after cryopreservation. Together,our study underlines that adult dermal fibroblasts can serve as a valuable resource for iPSC-derived RPE with characteristics highly reminiscent of true RPE cells. This will allow its broad application to establish cellular models for RPE-related human diseases.

Suppression of histone deacetylation promotes the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells towards neural progenitor cells
BACKGROUND:Emerging studies of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) raise new prospects for neurodegenerative disease modeling and cell replacement therapies. Therefore,understanding the mechanisms underlying the commitment of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) is important for the application of hPSCs in neurodegenerative disease therapies. It has been reported that epigenetic modifications of histones play important roles in neural differentiation,but the exact mechanisms in regulating hPSC differentiation towards NPCs are not fully elucidated.RESULTS:We demonstrated that suppression of histone deacetylases (HDACs) promoted the differentiation of hPSCs towards NPCs. Application of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) increased the expression of neuroectodermal markers and enhanced the neuroectodermal specification once neural differentiation was initiated,thereby leading to more NPC generation. Similarly,the transcriptome analysis showed that HDACi increased the expression levels of ectodermal markers and triggered the NPC differentiation related pathways,while decreasing the expression levels of endodermal and mesodermal markers. Furthermore,we documented that HDAC3 but not HDAC1 or HDAC2 was the critical regulator participating in NPC differentiation,and knockdown of HDAC3's cofactor SMRT exhibited a similar effect as HDAC3 on NPC generation.CONCLUSIONS:Our study reveals that HDACs,especially HDAC3,negatively regulate the differentiation of hPSCs towards NPCs at an earlier stage of neural differentiation. Moreover,HDAC3 might function by forming a repressor complex with its cofactor SMRT during this process. Thus,our findings uncover an important epigenetic mechanism of HDAC3 in the differentiation of hPSCs towards NPCs.

Efficient generation of endothelial cells from human pluripotent stem cells and characterization of their functional properties
Although endothelial cells (ECs) have been derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs),large-scale generation of hPSC-ECs remains challenging and their functions are not well characterized. Here we report a simple and efficient three-stage method that allows generation of approximately 98 and 9500 ECs on day 16 and day 34,respectively,from each human embryonic stem cell (hESC) input. The functional properties of hESC-ECs derived in the presence and absence of a TGF$$-inhibitory molecule SB431542 were characterized and compared with those of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Confluent monolayers formed by SB431542(+) hESC-ECs,SB431542(-) hESC-ECs,and HUVECs showed similar permeability to 10,000 Da dextran,but these cells exhibited striking differences in forming tube-like structures in 3D fibrin gels. The SB431542(+) hESC-ECs were most potent in forming tube-like structures regardless of whether VEGF and bFGF were present in the medium; less potent SB431542(-) hESC-ECs and HUVECs responded differently to VEGF and bFGF,which significantly enhanced the ability of HUVECs to form tube-like structures but had little impact on SB431542(-) hESC-ECs. This study offers an efficient approach to large-scale hPSC-EC production and suggests that the phenotypes and functions of hPSC-ECs derived under different conditions need to be thoroughly examined before their use in technology development.

Dysregulation of REST and its target genes impacts the fate of neural progenitor cells in down syndrome
Increasing shreds of evidence suggest that neurogenic-to-gliogenic shift may be critical to the abnormal neurodevelopment observed in individuals with Down syndrome (DS). REST,the Repressor Element-1 Silencing Transcription factor,regulates the differentiation and development of neural cells. Downregulation of REST may lead to defects in post-differentiation neuronal morphology in the brain of the DS fetal. This study aims to elucidate the role of REST in DS-derived NPCs using bioinformatics analyses and laboratory validations. We identified and validated vital REST-targeted DEGs: CD44,TGFB1,FN1,ITGB1,and COL1A1. Interestingly,these genes are involved in neurogenesis and gliogenesis in DS-derived NPCs. Furthermore,we identified nuclear REST loss and the neuroblast marker,DCX,was downregulated in DS human trisomic induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)-derived NPCs,whereas the glioblast marker,NFIA,was upregulated. Our findings indicate that the loss of REST is critical in the neurogenic-to-gliogenic shift observed in DS-derived NPCs. REST and its target genes may collectively regulate the NPC phenotype.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1038/s41598-025-87314-y.
