Generation of germline-competent induced pluripotent stem cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We have previously shown that pluripotent stem cells can be induced from mouse fibroblasts by retroviral introduction of Oct3/4 (also called Pou5f1), Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4, and subsequent selection for Fbx15 (also called Fbxo15) expression. These induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells (hereafter called Fbx15 iPS cells) are similar to embryonic stem (ES) cells in morphology, proliferation and teratoma formation; however, they are different with regards to gene expression and DNA methylation patterns, and fail to produce adult chimaeras. Here we show that selection for Nanog expression results in germline-competent iPS cells with increased ES-cell-like gene expression and DNA methylation patterns compared with Fbx15 iPS cells. The four transgenes (Oct3/4, Sox2, c-myc and Klf4) were strongly silenced in Nanog iPS cells. We obtained adult chimaeras from seven Nanog iPS cell clones, with one clone being transmitted through the germ line to the next generation. Approximately 20% of the offspring developed tumours attributable to reactivation of the c-myc transgene. Thus, iPS cells competent for germline chimaeras can be obtained from fibroblasts, but retroviral introduction of c-Myc should be avoided for clinical application. 相似文献

Pluripotency is established through genome-wide reprogramming during mammalian pre-implantation development, resulting in the formation of the naive epiblast. Reprogramming involves both the resetting of epigenetic marks and the activation of pluripotent-cell-specific genes such as Nanog and Oct4 (also known as Pou5f1). The tight regulation of these genes is crucial for reprogramming, but the mechanisms that regulate their expression in vivo have not been uncovered. Here we show that Nanog--but not Oct4--is monoallelically expressed in early pre-implantation embryos. Nanog then undergoes a progressive switch to biallelic expression during the transition towards ground-state pluripotency in the naive epiblast of the late blastocyst. Embryonic stem (ES) cells grown in leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and serum express Nanog mainly monoallelically and show asynchronous replication of the Nanog locus, a feature of monoallelically expressed genes, but ES cells activate both alleles when cultured under 2i conditions, which mimic the pluripotent ground state in vitro. Live-cell imaging with reporter ES cells confirmed the allelic expression of Nanog and revealed allelic switching. The allelic expression of Nanog is regulated through the fibroblast growth factor-extracellular signal-regulated kinase signalling pathway, and it is accompanied by chromatin changes at the proximal promoter but occurs independently of DNA methylation. Nanog-heterozygous blastocysts have fewer inner-cell-mass derivatives and delayed primitive endoderm formation, indicating a role for the biallelic expression of Nanog in the timely maturation of the inner cell mass into a fully reprogrammed pluripotent epiblast. We suggest that the tight regulation of Nanog dose at the chromosome level is necessary for the acquisition of ground-state pluripotency during development. Our data highlight an unexpected role for allelic expression in controlling the dose of pluripotency factors in vivo, adding an extra level to the regulation of reprogramming. 相似文献

Previous research has shown that mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells can be induced to form neural cells in adherent monocultures.
In this study, pluripotent stem (iPS) C5 cells derived from meningeal membranes were converted successfully into neural-like
cells using the same protocol generally used for ES cells. Meningeal-iPS C5 cells were induced to express neural markers Sox1, Sox3, Pax6, Nestin and Tuj1 and to reduce the expression of ES markers Oct4 and Nanog during neural differentiation, and can be differentiated into Pax6 and Nestin positive neural progenitors, and further into
neuronal, astrocytic, and oligodendrocytic cells. In vitro differentiation of iPS cells into patient-specific neural cells could serve as a model to study mechanisms of genetic diseases
and develop promising candidates for therapeutic applications in dysfunctional or aging neural tissues. Meningeal cells express
a high level of the embryonic master regulator Sox2, allowing them to be reprogrammed into iPS cells more easily than other
somatic cells. 相似文献

Through cell fusion, embryonic stem (ES) cells can erase the developmental programming of differentiated cell nuclei and impose pluripotency. Molecules that mediate this conversion should be identifiable in ES cells. One candidate is the variant homeodomain protein Nanog, which has the capacity to entrain undifferentiated ES cell propagation. Here we report that in fusions between ES cells and neural stem (NS) cells, increased levels of Nanog stimulate pluripotent gene activation from the somatic cell genome and enable an up to 200-fold increase in the recovery of hybrid colonies, all of which show ES cell characteristics. Nanog also improves hybrid yield when thymocytes or fibroblasts are fused to ES cells; however, fewer colonies are obtained than from ES x NS cell fusions, consistent with a hierarchical susceptibility to reprogramming among somatic cell types. Notably, for NS x ES cell fusions elevated Nanog enables primary hybrids to develop into ES cell colonies with identical frequency to homotypic ES x ES fusion products. This means that in hybrids, increased Nanog is sufficient for the NS cell epigenome to be reset completely to a state of pluripotency. We conclude that Nanog can orchestrate ES cell machinery to instate pluripotency with an efficiency of up to 100% depending on the differentiation status of the somatic cell. 相似文献

哺乳动物基因组可以转录数以千计的长非编码RNA(longnon-coding RNA, lncRNA),lncRNA能够在多种层次以灵活的方式对基因表达进行调控.尽管lncRNA在基因表达调控过程中的作用已经毋庸置疑,但目前只有少数lncRNA的功能和作用机制得到了研究.lnc1343是一条由小核仁RNA宿主基因3所转录的lncRNA,其表达失调与许多人类疾病有密切关联.研究结果表明lnc1343能够通过自身转录本来调控小鼠胚胎干细胞(mouse embryonic stem cells, mESCs)的多能性维持, CRISPR-cas9 介导的lnc1343的转录起始位点和基因座的敲除显著降低了多能性基因(Nanog, Sox2, Oct4)的表达,同时也能通过邻近调控相邻基因Rcc1的表达.此外,通过对Chip-seq数据库的分析,发现lnc1343基因座位存在大量的H3K27ac以及H3K4mel的表观遗传修饰,通过Capture C实验捕获与lnc1343基因座位相互作用的DNA区域,发现大部分相互作用区域位于基因的启动子区,表明lnc1343基因座位可能发挥增强子功能,通过长距离染色质相互作用调控基因表达,进而调控mESCs多能性.总之,lnc1343不仅可以通过自身的转录剪切形成的lncRNA来调控mESCs的多能性,同时也能通过其基因座位调控染色质的长远距离相互作用. 相似文献
