Abstract

在开发过程中,造血干细胞源自血管内皮细胞的一个专门的子集,hemogenic内皮细胞(HE)。建模何发展体外为内皮造血过渡和造血规范机理研究必不可少的。在这里,我们描述了用于有效诱导贺从人多能干细胞(hPSCs)由不同组的转录因子表达的方式的方法。 ETV2和GATA1或GATA2转录因子的组合被用于诱导他以泛粒细胞潜力,而GATA2和TAL1转录因子的结合允许生产的贺红系和巨核细胞潜力。加入LMO2到GATA2和TAL1组合显着加快分化,增加红系和巨核细胞的生产。这种方法提供何感应的有效且迅速的方式从hPSCs并且允许进行观测的内皮hematopoieti的在文化菜C的过渡。该协议包括hPSCs转导程序和HE的转导后分析和血液祖细胞。

Introduction

人多能干细胞(hPSCs)的自我更新和分化为三个胚层,包括血细胞,使它们的有价值的工具为造血发育的机理研究,血液病的模型,药物筛选的独特能力,毒性研究,以及细胞疗法的发展。因为通过内皮的造血转变1,2血液形成从hemogenic内皮细胞(HE)的胚胎进行,HE的文化的产生是必须研究调节内皮细胞造血转变和造血规格的分子机制。目前的方法进行HE的研究是基于感应hPSCs与造血-支持基质细胞6,7或在二维培养与细胞外的hematoendothelial分化的聚集体(EBS)通过加入造血细胞因子3-5,和共培养矩阵和cytokines 8,9。这些经典的差异化方法的基础上推出的作用于细胞表面和启动的分子途径,最终导致转录程序指导hematoendothelial发展激活级联外部信号。因此,hPSCs分化在这些系统的效率依赖于有效的感应这些信号,信号转导到细胞核,将得到的特定转录调节子活化。此外,他在常规分化培养物中研究需要使用细胞分选分离HE细胞的附加步骤。在这里,我们描述了一个简单的协议,直接诱导HE和血液的造血转录因子的表达。这个方法允许有效地诱导贺在培养皿中并直接观察内皮造血过渡而不使用笨重细胞分选过程的必要性,HE的隔离。

何的形成和血液从人多能干细胞可以通过超表达只是几个转录因子(TF)被有效地诱导。能够从hPSCs诱导强大的泛骨髓造血转录因子的优化组合包括ETV2和GATA1或GATA2。与此相反,GATA2和TAL1的组合诱导erythromegakaryocytopoiesis 10。通过对这些因素的过度编程hPSCs分化hPSCs直接对VE-CAD + CD43 CD73 HE细胞逐渐获得 ​​由早期造血标志物CD43 7表达定义的造血型。这种慢病毒为基础的方法的人多能干细胞的方法的直接编程适用于生成HE和血细胞的机理研究,内皮造血过渡研究,和造血发育和说明书的转录调控。虽然C使用,类似的结果可以用改性的mRNA 10来获得转基因的组成型表达urrent协议描述血液生产。
