Affymetrix Rat Gene 1.0 ST Array (ragene10st)
Description
It is reported that the transplantation of dopaminergic (DA) progenitors derived from pluripotent stem cells improves the behavior of Parkinson's disease (PD) model animals. However, the number of survived DA neurons was reported to be about 10% of the transplanted cells. This low survivability limits the clinical application of this stem cell-based therapy for PD. Recently, it was reported that zonisamide (ZNS) increased the number of survived DA neurons upon the transplantation of mouse induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived DA progenitors in the mouse striatum. It is not known, however, whether ZNS exerts the same effect on human DA neurons.

Description
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can provide a promising source of midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons for cell replacement therapy for Parkinsons disease. However, iPSC-derived donor cells may inevitably contain tumorigenic or inappropriate cells. Purification of neural progenitor cells or DA neurons as suitable donor cells has been attempted, but the isolation of DA progenitor cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells has so far been unsuccessful. Here we show human iPSC-derived DA progenitor cells can be efficiently isolated by cell sorting using a floor plate marker, Corin. we were able to develop a method for 1) scalable DA neuron induction on human laminin fragment and 2) sorting DA progenitor cells using an anti-Corin antibody. Furthermore, we determined the optimal timing for the cell sorting and transplantation. The grafted cells survived well and functioned as midbrain DA neurons in the 6-OHDA-lesioned rats, and showed minimal risk of tumor formation. The sorting of Corin-positive cells is favorable in terms of both safety and efficiency, and our protocol will contribute to the clinical application of human iPSCs for Parkinsons disease.

Description
In development, embryonic ectoderm differentiates into several lineages including neuroectoderm and surface ectoderm, through the mechanism largely unclear. Here we report that OVOL2 is required for the transcriptional program of corneal epithelium cell(CEC)s, a derivative of surface ectoderm, and it might regulates the differential transcriptional programs between the two lineages. By a functional screening, we identified transcription factors (TFs) maintaining human CECs. OVOL2 was necessary to maintain the transcriptional program in CECs, particularly through repressing expression of mesenchymal genes. OVOL2 combined with several TFs were able to activate the transcriptional program of CECs in fibroblasts, accompanied by induction of chromatin landscape. Moreover, our analysis revealed that neuroectoderm derivatives express some of mesenchymal genes. In fact, OVOL2 alone was able to induce the transcriptional program of CECs in neural progenitor cells (NPCs) through repression of mesenchymal genes as well as activation of epithelial genes. Our data suggest that the difference between the transcriptional programs of surface ectoderm-derivatives and neuroectoderm-derivatives is regulated in part by the reciprocally-repressive mechanism between epithelial and mesenchymal genes that is seen in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

Description
It remains controversial whether human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are distinct from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in their molecular signatures and differentiation properties. We examined the gene expression and DNA methylation of 49 hiPSC and 10 hESC lines and identified no molecular signatures that distinguished hiPSCs from hESCs. Comparisons of the in vitro directed neural differentiation of 40 hiPSC and four hESC lines showed that most hiPSC clones were comparable to hESCs. However, in seven hiPSC clones, significant amount of undifferentiated cells persisted even after neural differentiation and resulted in teratoma formation when transplantated into mouse brains. These differentiation-defective hiPSC clones were marked by higher expression of several genes, including those expressed from long terminal repeats of human endogenous retroviruses. These data demonstrated that many hiPSC clones are indistinguishable from hESCs, while some defective hiPSC clones need to be eliminated prior to their application for regenerative medicine.
