Polycistronic lentivirus induced pluripotent stem cells from skin biopsies after long term storage, blood outgrowth endothelial cells and cells from milk teeth
The generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) requires the collection of donor tissue,but clinical circumstances in which the interests of patients have highest priority may compromise the quality and availability of cells that are eventually used for reprogramming. Here we compared (i) skin biopsies stored in standard physiological salt solution for up to two weeks (ii) blood outgrowth endothelial cells (BOECs) isolated from fresh peripheral blood and (iii) children's milk teeth lost during normal replacement for their ability to form somatic cell cultures suitable for reprogramming to hiPSCs. We derived all hiPSC lines using the same reprogramming method (a conditional (FLPe) polycistronic lentivirus) and under similar conditions (same batch of virus,fetal calf serum and feeder cells). Skin fibroblasts could be reprogrammed robustly even after long-term biopsy storage. Generation of hiPSCs from juvenile dental pulp cells gave similar high efficiencies,but that of BOECs was lower. In terms of invasiveness of biopsy sampling,biopsy storage and reprogramming efficiencies skin fibroblasts appeared best for the generation of hiPSCs,but where non-invasive procedures are required (e.g. for children and minors) dental pulp cells from milk teeth represent a valuable alternative.

Efficient derivation of embryonic stem cells and primordial germ cell-like cells in cattle
The induction of the germ cell lineage from pluripotent stem cells (in vitro gametogenesis) will help understand the mechanisms underlying germ cell differentiation and provide an alternative source of gametes for reproduction. This technology is especially important for cattle,which are among the most important livestock species for milk and meat production. Here,we developed a new method for robust induction of primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) from newly established bovine embryonic stem (bES) cells. First,we refined the pluripotent culture conditions for pre-implantation embryos and ES cells. Inhibition of RHO increased the number of epiblast cells in the pre-implantation embryos and dramatically improved the efficiency of ES cell establishment. We then determined suitable culture conditions for PGCLC differentiation using bES cells harboring BLIMP1-tdTomato and TFAP2C-mNeonGreen (BTTN) reporter constructs. After a 24-h culture with bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4),followed by three-dimensional culture with BMP4 and a chemical agonist and WNT signaling chemical antagonist,bES cells became positive for the reporters. A set of primordial germ cells (PGC) marker genes,including PRDM1/BLIMP1,TFAP2C,SOX17,and NANOS3,were expressed in BTTN-positive cells. These bovine PGCLCs (bPGCLCs) were isolated as KIT/CD117-positive and CD44-negative cell populations. We anticipate that this method for the efficient establishment of bES cells and induction of PGCLCs will be useful for stem cell-based reproductive technologies in cattle.

Generation and purification of definitive endoderm cells generated from pluripotent stem cells
Differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into cells of the definitive endoderm requires an in vitro gastrulation event. Differentiated somatic cells derived from this germ layer may then be used for cell replacement therapies of degenerative diseases of the liver,lung,and pancreas. Here we describe an endoderm differentiation protocol,which initiates the differentiation from a defined cell number of dispersed single cells and reliably yields in textgreater70-80 % endoderm-committed cells in a short 5-day treatment regimen.

Reversine enhances generation of progenitor-like cells by dedifferentiation of annulus fibrosus cells.
The aim of this study was to determine if treatment with reversine,a purine analog,promoted generation of skeletal progenitor cells from lineage-committed annulus fibrosus cells. Reversine modulated cell growth,morphology,and the actin cytoskeleton of annulus fibrosus cells. Microarray profiling coupled with Ingenuity Pathway Analysis revealed that reversine treatment resulted in a significant expression change in many genes including those required for cell-cell interaction,cell movement,cell growth,and development. Further analysis revealed that there was involvement of gene networks concerned with cellular assembly and organization,DNA replication and repair,tissue morphology,and cell-to-cell signaling. The gene expression profile was dependent on reversine concentration. In osteogenic media,cells pretreated with 300 nM reversine exhibited an increased induction in alkaline phosphatase activity and enhanced expression of alkaline phosphatase,bone sialoprotein,osteocalcin,and collagen type I mRNA. Maintained in adipogenic media,the reversine-pretreated annulus cells displayed evidence of adipogenic differentiation: accumulation of cytosolic lipid droplets and increased expression of PPAR-gamma2,LPL,and Fabp mRNA. In chondrogenic media,cells pretreated with reversine exhibited marked increase in the induction of aggrecan,collagen types II,IX,and XI,and versican. It is concluded that reversine treatment induced annulus fibrosus cell plasticity and promoted their differentiation along mesenchymal lineages. This agent could be used to generate skeletal progenitor cells to orchestrate the repair of the intervertebral disc.

Viable mononuclear cell stability study for implementation in a proficiency testing program: impact of shipment conditions.
The impact of shipping temperatures and preservation media used during transport of either peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or Jurkat cells was assessed,in view of implementing of a proficiency testing scheme on mononuclear cell viability. Samples were analyzed before and after shipment at different temperatures (ambient temperature,dry ice,and liquid nitrogen) and in different preservation media (serum with cryoprotectant,commercial cryopreservation solution,and room temperature transport medium). Sample quality was assessed by viability assays (Trypan Blue dye exclusion,flow cytometry,Cell Analysis System cell counting (CASY)),and by ELISpot functional assay. The liquid nitrogen storage and shipment were found to be the most stable conditions to preserve cell viability and functionality. However,we show that alternative high quality shipment conditions for viable cells are dry ice shipment and commercial cryopreservation solution. These were also cost-efficient shipment conditions,satisfying the requirements of a proficiency testing scheme for viable mononuclear cells. Room temperature transport medium dramatically and adversely affected the integrity of mononuclear cells.

Proinflammatory isoforms of IL-32 as novel and robust biomarkers for control failure in HIV-infected slow progressors.
HIV-infected slow progressors (SP) represent a heterogeneous group of subjects who spontaneously control HIV infection without treatment for several years while showing moderate signs of disease progression. Under conditions that remain poorly understood,a subgroup of these subjects experience failure of spontaneous immunological and virological control. Here we determined the frequency of SP subjects who showed loss of HIV control within our Canadian Cohort of HIV(+) Slow Progressors and identified the proinflammatory cytokine IL-32 as a robust biomarker for control failure. Plasmatic levels of the proinflammatory isoforms of IL-32 (mainly β and γ) at earlier clinic visits positively correlated with the decline of CD4 T-cell counts,increased viral load,lower CD4/CD8 ratio and levels of inflammatory markers (sCD14 and IL-6) at later clinic visits. We present here a proof-of-concept for the use of IL-32 as a predictive biomarker for disease progression in SP subjects and identify IL-32 as a potential therapeutic target.

A critical role for phosphatase haplodeficiency in the selective suppression of deletion 5q MDS by lenalidomide.
Lenalidomide is the first karyotype-selective therapeutic approved for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) owing to high rates of erythroid and cytogenetic response in patients with chromosome 5q deletion [del(5q)]. Although haploinsufficiency for the RPS14 gene and others encoded within the common deleted region (CDR) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of the del(5q) phenotype,the molecular basis of the karyotype specificity of lenalidomide remains unexplained. We focused our analysis on possible haplodeficient enzymatic targets encoded within the CDR that play key roles in cell-cycle regulation. We show that the dual specificity phosphatases,Cdc25C and PP2Acalpha,which are coregulators of the G(2)-M checkpoint,are inhibited by lenalidomide. Gene expression was lower in MDS and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) specimens with del(5q) compared with those with alternate karyotypes. Lenalidomide inhibited phosphatase activity either directly (Cdc25C) or indirectly (PP2A) with corresponding retention of inhibitory phospho-tyrosine residues. Treatment of del(5q) AML cells with lenalidomide induced G(2) arrest and apoptosis,whereas there was no effect in nondel(5q) AML cells. Small interfering RNA (shRNA) suppression of Cdc25C and PP2Acalpha gene expression recapitulated del(5q) susceptibility to lenalidomide with induction of G(2) arrest and apoptosis in both U937 and primary nondel(5q) MDS cells. These data establish a role for allelic haplodeficiency of the lenalidomide inhibitable Cdc25C and PP2Acalpha phosphatases in the selective drug sensitivity of del(5q) MDS.

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Signaling Is Essential for Normal Mammary Gland Development and Stem Cell Function
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling plays an important role in embryonic stem cells and adult tissue homeostasis,but the function of FGFs in mammary gland stem cells is less well defined. Both FGFR1 and FGFR2 are expressed in basal and luminal mammary epithelial cells (MECs),suggesting that together they might play a role in mammary gland development and stem cell dynamics. Previous studies have demonstrated that the deletion of FGFR2 resulted only in transient developmental defects in branching morphogenesis. Using a conditional deletion strategy,we investigated the consequences of FGFR1 deletion alone and then the simultaneous deletion of both FGFR1 and FGFR2 in the mammary epithelium. FGFR1 deletion using a keratin 14 promoter-driven Cre-recombinase resulted in an early,yet transient delay in development. However,no reduction in functional outgrowth potential was observed following limiting dilution transplantation analysis. In contrast,a significant reduction in outgrowth potential was observed upon the deletion of both FGFR1 and FGFR2 in MECs using adenovirus-Cre. Additionally,using a fluorescent reporter mouse model to monitor Cre-mediated recombination,we observed a competitive disadvantage following transplantation of both FGFR1/R2-null MECs,most prominently in the basal epithelial cells. This correlated with the complete loss of the mammary stem cell repopulating population in the FGFR1/R2-attenuated epithelium. FGFR1/R2-null MECs were partially rescued in chimeric outgrowths containing wild-type MECs,suggesting the potential importance of paracrine mechanisms involved in the maintenance of the basal epithelial stem cells. These studies document the requirement for functional FGFR signaling in mammary stem cells during development.

Epithelial cell specific Raptor is required for initiation of type 2 mucosal immunity in small intestine.
Intestinal tuft cells are one of 4 secretory cell linages in the small intestine and the source of IL-25,a critical initiator of the type 2 immune response to parasite infection. When Raptor,a critical scaffold protein for mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1),was acutely deleted in intestinal epithelium via Tamoxifen injection in Tritrichomonas muris (Tm) infected mice,tuft cells,IL-25 in epithelium and IL-13 in the mesenchyme were significantly reduced,but Tm burden was not affected. When Tm infected mice were treated with rapamycin,DCLK1 and IL-25 expression in enterocytes and IL-13 expression in mesenchyme were diminished. After massive small bowel resection,tuft cells and Tm were diminished due to the diet used postoperatively. The elimination of Tm and subsequent re-infection of mice with Tm led to type 2 immune response only in WT,but Tm colonization in both WT and Raptor deficient mice. When intestinal organoids were stimulated with IL-4,tuft cells and IL-25 were induced in both WT and Raptor deficient organoids. In summary,our study reveals that enterocyte specific Raptor is required for initiating a type 2 immune response which appears to function through the regulation of mTORC1 activity.

Brown Adipose Tissue as a Unique Niche for Islet Organoid Transplantation: Insights From In Vivo Imaging
Transplantation of human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived islet organoids is a promising cell replacement therapy for type 1 diabetes (T1D). It is important to improve the efficacy of islet organoids transplantation by identifying new transplantation sites with high vascularization and sufficient accommodation to support graft survival with a high capacity for oxygen delivery. A human-induced pluripotent stem cell line (hiPSCs-L1) was generated constitutively expressing luciferase. Luciferase-expressing hiPSCs were differentiated into islet organoids. The islet organoids were transplanted into the scapular brown adipose tissue (BAT) of nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency disease (NOD/SCID) mice as the BAT group and under the left kidney capsule (KC) of NOD/SCID mice as a control group,respectively. Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) of the organoid grafts was performed on days 1,7,14,28,35,42,49,56,and 63 posttransplantation. BLI signals were detected in all recipients,including both the BAT and control groups. The BLI signal gradually decreased in both BAT and KC groups. However,the graft BLI signal intensity under the left KC decreased substantially faster than that of the BAT. Furthermore,our data show that islet organoids transplanted into streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice restored normoglycemia. Positron emission tomography/MRI verified that the islet organoids were transplanted at the intended location in these diabetic mice. Immunofluorescence staining revealed the presence of functional organoid grafts,as confirmed by insulin and glucagon staining. Our results demonstrate that BAT is a potentially desirable site for islet organoid transplantation for T1D therapy.
