A human embryonic stem cell line adapted for high throughput screening
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can be differentiated into multiple cell types with great therapeutic potential. However,optimizing the often multi-week cultures to obtain sufficient differentiated cell yields has been in part limited by the high variability of even parallel hESC differentiation cultures. We describe the isolation and features of a subline of CA1 hESCs (CA1S) that display a very high 25% cloning efficiency while retaining many properties of the parental hESCs,including being karyotypically normal and their ability to generate teratomas containing all three germ layers. Although more detailed analysis revealed that CA1S cells have a 3.8 Mb genomic duplication on chromosome 20,they remain highly useful. In particular,CA1S cells are readily expanded at high yields in culture and possess greatly reduced well-to-well variation even when seeded at 100 cells/well. Thus,108 CA1S cells can be generated within one week from 106 cells to seed 106 wells. We determined that CA1S cells have the capacity to follow established in vitro differentiation protocols to pancreatic progenitors and subsequent hormone-positive cell types and used CA1S cells to explore definitive endoderm induction in a high performance screen (Z-factor = 0.97). This system revealed that CA1S cells do not require WNT3A to efficiently form definitive endoderm,a finding that was confirmed with H1 hESCs,although H1 cells did show modest benefits of high WNT3A doses. Proliferative index measurements of CA1S cells were shown to rapidly reflect their differentiation status in a high throughput system. Though results obtained with CA1S cells will need to be confirmed using conventional hESC lines,these cells should ease the development of optimized hESC growth and differentiation protocols. In particular,they should limit the more arduous secondary screens using hESCs to a smaller number of variables and doses. Biotechnol.

The role of SIRT6 protein in aging and reprogramming of human induced pluripotent stem cells
Aging is known to be the single most important risk factor for multiple diseases. Sirtuin 6,or SIRT6,has recently been identified as a critical regulator of transcription,genome stability,telomere integrity,DNA repair,and metabolic homeostasis. A knockout mouse model of SIRT6 has displayed dramatic phenotypes of accelerated aging. In keeping with its role in aging,we demonstrated that human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) from older human subjects were more resistant to reprogramming by classic Yamanaka factors than those from younger human subjects,but the addition of SIRT6 during reprogramming improved such efficiency in older HDFs substantially. Despite the importance of SIRT6,little is known about the molecular mechanism of its regulation. We show,for the first,time posttranscriptional regulation of SIRT6 by miR-766 and inverse correlation in the expression of this microRNA in HDFs from different age groups. Our results suggest that SIRT6 regulates miR-766 transcription via a feedback regulatory loop,which has implications for the modulation of SIRT6 expression in reprogramming of aging cells.

Transcriptional and epigenetic dynamics during specification of human embryonic stem cells
Differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) provides a unique opportunity to study the regulatory mechanisms that facilitate cellular transitions in a human context. To that end,we performed comprehensive transcriptional and epigenetic profiling of populations derived through directed differentiation of hESCs representing each of the three embryonic germ layers. Integration of whole-genome bisulfite sequencing,chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing,and RNA sequencing reveals unique events associated with specification toward each lineage. Lineage-specific dynamic alterations in DNA methylation and H3K4me1 are evident at putative distal regulatory elements that are frequently bound by pluripotency factors in the undifferentiated hESCs. In addition,we identified germ-layer-specific H3K27me3 enrichment at sites exhibiting high DNA methylation in the undifferentiated state. A better understanding of these initial specification events will facilitate identification of deficiencies in current approaches,leading to more faithful differentiation strategies as well as providing insights into the rewiring of human regulatory programs during cellular transitions. ?? 2013 Elsevier Inc.

Improved cell therapy protocols for Parkinson's disease based on differentiation efficiency and safety of hESC-, hiPSC-, and non-human primate iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons
The main motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease are due to the loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the ventral midbrain (VM). For the future treatment of Parkinson's disease with cell transplantation it is important to develop efficient differentiation methods for production of human iPSCs and hESCs-derived midbrain-type DA neurons. Here we describe an efficient differentiation and sorting strategy for DA neurons from both human ES/iPS cells and non-human primate iPSCs. The use of non-human primate iPSCs for neuronal differentiation and autologous transplantation is important for preclinical evaluation of safety and efficacy of stem cell-derived DA neurons. The aim of this study was to improve the safety of human- and non-human primate iPSC (PiPSC)-derived DA neurons. According to our results,NCAM(+) /CD29(low) sorting enriched VM DA neurons from pluripotent stem cell-derived neural cell populations. NCAM(+) /CD29(low) DA neurons were positive for FOXA2/TH and EN1/TH and this cell population had increased expression levels of FOXA2,LMX1A,TH,GIRK2,PITX3,EN1,NURR1 mRNA compared to unsorted neural cell populations. PiPSC-derived NCAM(+) /CD29(low) DA neurons were able to restore motor function of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned rats 16 weeks after transplantation. The transplanted sorted cells also integrated in the rodent brain tissue,with robust TH+/hNCAM+ neuritic innervation of the host striatum. One year after autologous transplantation,the primate iPSC-derived neural cells survived in the striatum of one primate without any immunosuppression. These neural cell grafts contained FOXA2/TH-positive neurons in the graft site. This is an important proof of concept for the feasibility and safety of iPSC-derived cell transplantation therapies in the future.

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.

Assessment of functional competence of endothelial cells from human pluripotent stem cells in zebrafish embryos.
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are proving to be a valuable source of endothelial cells (ECs),pericytes,and vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMCs). Although an increasing number of phenotypic markers are becoming available to determine the phenotypes of these cells in vitro,the ability to integrate and form functional vessels in the host organism,typically mouse,remains critical for the assessment of EC functional competence. However,current mouse models require relatively large numbers of cells that might be difficult to derive simultaneously from multiple hPSCs lines. Therefore,there is an urgent need for new functional assays that are robust and can be performed with small numbers of cells. Here we describe a novel zebrafish xenograft model to test functionality of hPSC-derived ECs. The assay can be performed in 10 days and requires only ˜100-400 human cells per embryo. Thus,the zebrafish xenograft model can be useful for the accurate and rapid assessment of functionality of hPSC-derived ECs in a lower vertebrate model that is widely viewed by regulatory authorities as a more acceptable alternative to adult mice.

Synergistic contribution of SMAD signaling blockade and high localized cell density in the differentiation of neuroectoderm from H9 cells
Directed neural differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) enables researchers to generate diverse neuronal populations for human neural development study and cell replacement therapy. To realize this potential,it is critical to precisely understand the role of various endogenous and exogenous factors involved in neural differentiation. Cell density,one of the endogenous factors,is involved in the differentiation of human ESCs. Seeding cell density can result in variable terminal cell densities or localized cell densities (LCDs),giving rise to various outcomes of differentiation. Thus,understanding how LCD determines the differentiation potential of human ESCs is important. The aim of this study is to highlight the role of LCD in the differentiation of H9 human ESCs into neuroectoderm (NE),the primordium of the nervous system. We found the initially seeded cells form derived cells with variable LCDs and subsequently affect the NE differentiation. Using a newly established method for the quantitative examination of LCD,we demonstrated that in the presence of induction medium supplemented with or without SMAD signaling blockers,high LCD promotes the differentiation of NE. Moreover,SMAD signaling blockade promotes the differentiation of NE but not non-NE germ layers,which is dependent on high LCDs. Taken together,this study highlights the need to develop innovative strategies or techniques based on LCDs for generating neural progenies from human ESCs.

Dual small-molecule targeting of SMAD signaling stimulates human induced pluripotent stem cells toward neural lineages.
Incurable neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD),Huntington's disease (HD),and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are very common and can be life-threatening because of their progressive disease symptoms with limited treatment options. To provide an alternative renewable cell source for cell-based transplantation and as study models for neurological diseases,we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) and then differentiated them into neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and mature neurons by dual SMAD signaling inhibitors. Reprogramming efficiency was improved by supplementing the histone deacethylase inhibitor,valproic acid (VPA),and inhibitor of p160-Rho associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK),Y-27632,after retroviral transduction. We obtained a number of iPS colonies that shared similar characteristics with human embryonic stem cells in terms of their morphology,cell surface antigens,pluripotency-associated gene and protein expressions as well as their in vitro and in vivo differentiation potentials. After treatment with Noggin and SB431542,inhibitors of the SMAD signaling pathway,HDF-iPSCs demonstrated rapid and efficient differentiation into neural lineages. Six days after neural induction,neuroepithelial cells (NEPCs) were observed in the adherent monolayer culture,which had the ability to differentiate further into NPCs and neurons,as characterized by their morphology and the expression of neuron-specific transcripts and proteins. We propose that our study may be applied to generate neurological disease patient-specific iPSCs allowing better understanding of disease pathogenesis and drug sensitivity assays.

Differentially methylated CpG island within human XIST mediates alternative P2 transcription and YY1 binding.
BackgroundX-chromosome inactivation silences one X chromosome in females to achieve dosage compensation with the single X chromosome in males. While most genes are silenced on the inactive X chromosome,the gene for the long non-coding RNA XIST is silenced on the active X chromosome and expressed from the inactive X chromosome with which the XIST RNA associates,triggering silencing of the chromosome. In mouse,an alternative Xist promoter,P2 is also the site of YY1 binding,which has been shown to serve as a tether between the Xist RNA and the DNA of the chromosome. In humans there are many differences from the initial events of mouse Xist activation,including absence of a functional antisense regulator Tsix,and absence of strictly paternal inactivation in extraembryonic tissues,prompting us to examine regulatory regions for the human XIST gene.ResultsWe demonstrate that the female-specific DNase hypersensitivity site within XIST is specific to the inactive X chromosome and correlates with transcription from an internal P2 promoter. P2 is located within a CpG island that is differentially methylated between males and females and overlaps conserved YY1 binding sites that are only bound on the inactive X chromosome where the sites are unmethylated. However,YY1 binding is insufficient to drive P2 expression or establish the DHS,which may require a development-specific factor. Furthermore,reduction of YY1 reduces XIST transcription in addition to causing delocalization of XIST.ConclusionsThe differentially methylated DNase hypersensitive site within XIST marks the location of an alternative promoter,P2,that generates a transcript of unknown function as it lacks the A repeats that are critical for silencing. In addition,this region binds YY1 on the unmethylated inactive X chromosome,and depletion of YY1 untethers the XIST RNA as well as decreasing transcription of XIST.

Impaired development of neural-crest cell-derived organs and intellectual disability caused by MED13L haploinsufficiency.
MED13L is a component subunit of the Mediator complex,an important regulator of transcription that is highly conserved across eukaryotes. Here we report MED13L disruption in a translocation t(12;19) breakpoint of a patient with Pierre-Robin syndrome,moderate intellectual disability (ID),craniofacial anomalies,and muscular defects. The phenotype is similar to previously described patients with MED13L haploinsufficiency. Knockdown of MED13L orthologue in zebrafish,med13b,showed early defective migration of cranial neural crest cells (NCCs) that contributed into cartilage structure deformities in the later stage,recapitulating craniofacial anomalies seen in human patients. Notably,we observed abnormal distribution of developing neurons in different brain regions of med13b morphant embryos,which could be rescued upon introduction of full-length human MED13L mRNA. To compare with mammalian system,we suppressed MED13L expression by short-hairpin RNA in ES-derived human neural progenitors,and differentiated them into neurons. Transcriptome analysis revealed differential expression of components of Wnt and FGF signalling pathways in MED13L-deficient neurons. Our finding provides a novel insight into the mechanism of overlapping phenotypic outcome targeting NCCs derivatives organs in patients with MED13L haploinsufficiency,and emphasizes a clinically recognizable syndromic phenotype in these patients.

Car expression in human embryos and hesc illustrates its role in pluripotency and tight junctions
Coxsackie virus and adenovirus receptor,CXADR (CAR),is present during embryogenesis and is involved in tissue regeneration,cancer and intercellular adhesion. We investigated the expression of CAR in human preimplantation embryos and embryonic stem cells (hESC) to identify its role in early embryogenesis and differentiation. CAR protein was ubiquitously present during preimplantation development. It was localised in the nucleus of uncommitted cells,from the cleavage stage up to the precursor epiblast,and corresponded with the presence of soluble CXADR3/7 splice variant. CAR was displayed on the membrane,involving in the formation of tight junction at compaction and blastocyst stages in both outer and inner cells,and CAR corresponded with the full-length CAR-containing transmembrane domain. In trophectodermal cells of hatched blastocysts,CAR was reduced in the membrane and concentrated in the nucleus,which correlated with the switch in RNA expression to the CXADR4/7 and CXADR2/7 splice variants. The cells in the outer layer of hESC colonies contained CAR on the membrane and all the cells of the colony had CAR in the nucleus,corresponding with the transmembrane CXADR and CXADR4/7. Upon differentiation of hESC into cells representing the three germ layers and trophoblast lineage,the expression of CXADR was downregulated. We concluded that CXADR is differentially expressed during human preimplantation development. We described various CAR expressions: i) soluble CXADR marking undifferentiated blastomeres; ii) transmembrane CAR related with epithelial-like cell types,such as the trophectoderm (TE) and the outer layer of hESC colonies; and iii) soluble CAR present in TE nuclei after hatching. The functions of these distinct forms remain to be elucidated.

Doxycycline enhances survival and self-renewal of human pluripotent stem cells.
We here report that doxycycline,an antibacterial agent,exerts dramatic effects on human embryonic stem and induced pluripotent stem cells (hESC/iPSCs) survival and self-renewal. The survival-promoting effect was also manifest in cultures of neural stem cells (NSCs) derived from hESC/iPSCs. These doxycycline effects are not associated with its antibacterial action,but mediated by direct activation of a PI3K-AKT intracellular signal. These findings indicate doxycycline as a useful supplement for stem cell cultures,facilitating their growth and maintenance.
