The olfactory epithelial layer contains multipotent horizontal basal cells (HBCs) that differentiate into olfactory sensory neurons. Here, we show that rat HBCs express oligodendrocyte progenitor cell (OPC) and astrocyte markers. We generated olfactory sphere (OS) cells in cultures that were derived from adult rat olfactory mucosa. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting and immunofluorescence analyses showed that OS cells also express OPC and astrocyte markers. Interestingly, OS cells underwent oligodendrocyte differentiation in vitro. To study oligodendrocyte differentiation in vivo, OS cells were transplanted into injured rat spinal cords. The transplanted cells integrated into host tissue and differentiated into oligodendrocytes. When transected saphenous nerve ends were encased in collagen-containing silicone tubes with or without OS cells, the transplanted OS cells differentiated into Schwann cells. Our data provide new insights into of the stemness of OS cells.
CD34+ cells were isolated from mobilized peripheral blood of a healthy donor and reprogrammed by nucleofection with episomal plasmids carrying l-MYC, LIN28, OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, EBNA-1, and shRNA against p53. The obtained MUSIi012-A cell line maintained the pluripotent phenotype, the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers, and a normal karyotype.
Becker Muscular dystrophy (BMD) is an X-linked syndrome characterized by progressive muscle weakness. BMD is generally less severe than Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. BMD is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene that normally give rise to the production of a truncated but partially functional dystrophin protein. We generated an induced pluripotent cell line from dermal fibroblasts of a BMD patient carrying a splice mutation in the dystrophin gene (c.1705-8 T>C). The iPSC cell-line displayed the characteristic pluripotent-like morphology, expressed pluripotency markers, differentiated into cells of the three germ layers and had a normal karyotype.
The gene mutations of the collagen type IV alpha 5 chain (COL4A5) can lead to the inherited haematuria to end-stage renal disease X-linked Alport syndrome (X-LAS). The urine cells of a 5-year-old male X-LAS patient carrying a hemizygous COL4A5 gene mutation p.G1433V (c.4298G>T) were reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with Sendai virus reprogramming kit containing OCT4, SOX2, c-MYC, and KLF4 Yamanaka factors. The generated iPSC line WMUi015-A stably expressed pluripotent markers, maintained a normal karyotype (46, XY), and had differentiation potential into three germ layers in vitro.
Human urine cells from a 6-year-old male X-linked Barth syndrome patient harboring a TAZ frameshift (c.517delG, Xq28) were reprogrammed into the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line WMUi002-A using non-integration CytoTune®-iPS 2.0 Sendai Virus Reprogramming kit, including four well-known Yamanaka factors SOX2, OCT4, KLF4, and c-MYC. The established patient-derived iPSC expressed endogenous pluripotent markers, had the potential to differentiate into all of the three germ layers, and displayed a normal karyotype.
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) can be caused by mutations in more than 20 different genes. One of these, RPE65, encodes a protein essential for the visual cycle that is expressed in retinal pigment epithelium cells. In this work, we describe the generation and characterization of the human iPSC line SCTCi16-A. This hiPSC line was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from a patient affected with LCA caused by the homozygous c.11+5G>A variant in the RPE65 gene. Reprograming was conducted using episomal vectors containing OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4, L-MYC, and LIN28.
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most common form of hereditary stroke disorder. It is caused by mutations in NOTCH3 that lead to progressive degeneration of the smooth muscle cells in blood vessels. There is currently no treatment for this disorder. We reprogrammed to pluripotency blood mononuclear cells isolated from a patient carrying a NOTCH3 mutation by using a commercially available non-integrating system. The success in the generation of this iPSC line (IDISi001-A) suggests that the NOTCH3 mutation did not limit cell reprogramming and offers an unprecedented opportunity for studying and modeling CADASIL pathology.
We report the genome-editing of an existing iPSC line carrying the London mutation in APP (V717I) into an iPSC line in which the pathogenic mutation was corrected. The resulting isogenic iPSC line maintained pluripotent stem cell morphology, a normal karyotype, expression of pluripotency markers and the ability to differentiate into the three germ-layers in vitro.
Pathogenic sequence variants in the Sorting Nexin 10 (SNX10) gene have been associated with autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) in human. In this study, an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (ARO-iPSC1-11) was generated from an ARO patient carrying the homozygous c.212+1G>T mutation in SNX10, using a retroviral-based reprogramming protocol. Characterization confirmed that the generated iPSCs expressed pluripotency markers, displayed normal karyotype, showed pluripotent differentiation capacity and retained the targeted mutation. Disease modeling with this ARO patient-specific iPSC line will shed further light on the critical role of the SNX10 mutation in ARO development.
ZBTB7A plays important roles in several biological processes, including silencing of the fetal γ-globin genes, hematopoiesis, primed-to-naive transition, etc. Meanwhile, it is also associated with Oncogenic transformation and tumor progression. However, the mechanism of ZBTB7A function is not fully understood yet. Here, we generated a homozygous ZBTB7A knockout human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, GZHMCi007-A by the CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homology-dependent DNA repair method. The iPSCs of ZBTB7A-/- established by us is a powerful tool for related research.
We report the generation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from dermal fibroblasts of a female patient carrier of the two compound heterozygous mutations c.568 C>T p.R190W (maternal allele), and c.1781 G>A p.R594Q (paternal allele) on the KCNQ1 gene, causing Jervell and Lange-Nielsen Syndrome (JLNS). To obtain hiPSCs, we used the classical approach of the four retroviruses each encoding for a reprogramming factor OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, cMYC. The obtained hiPSC clones display pluripotent stem cell characteristics, and differentiate into spontaneously beating cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs).
In mammals, there are a number of kinases, including serine/threonine-protein kinase LATS1, that act as a core kinase of the Hippo pathway and that negatively regulate the Hippo effector protein YAP and its paralog TAZ. Using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, we established a stable LATS1 knockdown (LATS1-KD) iPSC from the MUSIi012-A cell line. The LATS1-KD iPSC MUSIi012-A-3 that was developed maintained both the normal karyotype and the pluripotent phenotype, and retained the ability to differentiate into all three embryonic germ layers.
Fabry disease (FD) is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in GLA gene. Here, GLA mutation (1268fs*1 (c.803_806del)) of FD iPSCs was corrected using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system. The corrected (cor) FD-iPSCs retained normal morphology, karyotype, expression of pluripotency-associated markers, trilineage differentiation potential, and GLA activity. Thus, FD(cor)-iPSCs can be used as valuable tools to study the mechanism how GLA mutation1268fs*1 induces various pathophysiologic phenotypes in FD patients.
The INK4 locus is considered as a hot-spot region for the complex genetic disorders, including cancer, type 2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary artery disease (CAD). By CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, we generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line (HMGUi001-A-5) deleting an 8 kb genomic DNA encompassing six T2D-associated SNPs at the INK4 locus. The resulting hiPSC line revealed a normal karyotype, preserved pluripotency and was able to differentiate towards germ layers, endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm. Thus, the HMGUi001-A-5 line could provide a valuable cellular model to explore the molecular mechanisms linking these SNPs to T2D and other genetic disorders.
Telomeric repeat binding factor 1 (TRF1) plays an essential role in maintaining telomere length. Here, we established TRF1-knockout human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs; hTRF1-KO) using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. The hTRF1-KO cell lines expressed pluripotency markers and demonstrated a normal karyotype (46, XX) and DNA profile. In addition, hTRF1-KOcells spontaneously differentiated into all three germ layers in vitro. Thus, these cell lines could be useful models in various research fields.
Biallelic PRKG2 (Protein Kinase, cGMP dependent Type-2) mutations cause a novel acromesomelic dysplasia PRKG2 type. We report generation of induced pluripotent stem cell line from lymphoblastoid cell lines of the patient carrying the reported frameshift mutation (p.Asn164Lysfs*2). The derived iPSC line exhibits all the features of pluripotency, free of major genetic alterations due to reprogramming process and has the capability to differentiate into three germ layers. This iPSC cell line may provide an opportunity to investigate the effect of PRKG2 mutations upon FGF (fibroblast-growth-factor) induced MAPK signalling involved in chondrocyte proliferation in-vitro and may aid in possible therapeutic screening of novel biomolecules.
X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is one of the most severely affected genetic causes of irreversible retinal degeneration diseases in young males, especially school-age boys. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a Chinese 11-year-old male with clinically diagnosed XLRS. Urine sample was collected with appropriate cooperation, then isolated cells were expanded for subsequent reprogramming procedure using integration-free Sendai virus. The newly derived CSUASOi001-A iPS cell line harboring the c.304C > T mutation in the RS1 gene (p.R102W) provides a useful resource to investigate pathogenic mechanisms in XLRS.
WWTR1 or TAZ (WWTR1/TAZ) is a transcriptional coactivator that acts as a downstream regulatory target in the Hippo signaling pathway, which plays a pivotal role in regulating cell proliferation and anti-apoptosis. It has been shown in other cell types that WWTR1/TAZ plays a redundant role to its homolog YAP1. Using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, we established the WWTR1/TAZ-KO cell line, which features homozygous deletion of WWTR1 gene from human iPSCs. The established WWTR1/YAZ-KO cell line maintained the pluripotent phenotype, the ability to differentiate into all three embryonic germ layers, and normal karyotype.
The hiPSC line was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from a female patient with young onset Parkinson's disease (PD), carrying on heterozygous c.1448 T > C (L483P), c1483 G > C (A495P) and c.1497 G > C (V499V) mutations in the GBA gene. The PBMCs was reprogrammed into an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (GBA PD8 or PNUSCRi004-A hiPSCs) using non-integrative Sendai virus. The cell line, PNUSCRi004-A displayed a normal karyotype and expression of pluripotency markers capable of producing derivatives of three germ layers (Ectoderm, Endoderm and Mesoderm).
We generated an induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell line by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with Usher syndrome type II carrying USH2A gene mutation (c.8559-2A > G). The iPS cell line with confirmed patient-specific point mutation exhibited typical iPS cell characteristics and maintained a normal karyotype. It can be used as 2D and 3D models to investigate the underlying pathogenic mechanism and lay a solid foundation for future personalized therapy.
