Overview

Human induced pluripotent stem cells can generate every cell type of the human body and under the appropriate conditions recapitulate central aspects of embryonic development in the dish. To interrogate the transcriptome changes associated with the earliest steps of human brain development as recapitulated with human pluripotent stem cells we generated footprint-free induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from control and Down syndrome fibroblasts using episomal reprogramming [1] and were next stepwise differentiated these iPSc into neuro-ectodermal cells (day6), neural stem cells (day12) and early neuronal progenitors (day 18) using an established neuronal differentiation protocol [2].

Sample description

For this study three sample donors were used, two 2 control iPSC (C11 iPSC derived from CRL2429 Newborn Male Caucasian fibroblasts and C32 iPSC derived from CRL1502 12wk gestation Female Black fibroblasts) and two iPSC clones from one Down Syndrome individual (C11 and C18 from an Unknown Male Caucasian). Three replicates of each iPSc line were subjected to neuronal differentiation as described [1,2] and harvested at day 0, 6, 12, 18 of differentiation for RNA extraction (Fig 1 below).

Quality control

Q-PCR validation of key neuronal marker genes was performed and published [1]. The data show upregulation of mRNA expression of the neuronal marker genes PAX6 [3] , beta-III-tubulin [4], SOX1 [5] , DCX [6], SOX9 [7], SOX2 [8] and MASH1 [9] (Fig 2C and D) and robust expression of PAX6, beta-III-Tubulin and MAP2 [10] protein expression (Fig 2A). we further expect that as cells exit from pluripotency that they will display a downregulation of the pluripotency transcription factor Oct4 [11] and the DNA methyl transferase DNMT3B [12].

Sample culture information:

hIPS cell culture

Human iPS cells were cultured under feeder-free culture conditions on Matrigel (1:50 dilution BD Biosciences) with mouse embryonic fibroblast conditioned DMEM/F12 culture medium supplemented with 20% KnockOut serum replacement (KOSR), 0.1 mM non-essential amino acids, 1 mM L-glutamine, 0.1 mM ß-mercaptoethanol in the presence of 100 ng/ml human bFGF. Medium was exchanged daily. These cells were next FACS sorted for the cell surface marker TRA160, to ensure isolation of RNA from 100% undifferentiated cells at timepoint 0.

Neural differentiation of hIPS cells

hiPSC cultures were grown for ~5 days after mechanical passage in conditioned medium (as above), and changed directly into KOSR supplemented with 10 μM SB431542 (Sigma) and 5 μM dorsomorphin (Stemgent) for the first 6 and 12 days of differentiation, respectively, with media changes every 2 days to initiate neural conversion. KOSR was gradually substituted with N2B27 medium (Neurobasal medium supplemented with Glutamax, N2 and B27 supplements (all from Gibco)): 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% N2B27 in KOSR on days 4, 6, 8 and 10 respectively. Neurospheres were formed on day 6 of differentiation by 10 min incubation in 1 mg/ml Collagenase IV (Gibco) at 37°C and dislodging of large pieces of colonies by use of a cell scraper and P1000 pipette. Neuralized colony fragments were seeded into Ultra-low Cluster plates (Costar) where they aggregated into tight spheres. Neurospheres were expanded in Ultra-low Cluster plates until day 12 and seeded onto Matrigel (BD), and N2B27 media was changed every 3 days. Adherent cultures were passaged every 4-5 days by cell dissociation buffer (Sigma) at a 1:2 – 1:3 ratio until day 18.

CAGE data

Figure 3 A-D shows the CAGE expression of DNMT3B, MAP2, PAX6, beta-III-tubulin and Oct4 in the two two DS iPSC (A and B) and control iPSC (C and D) subjected to neuronal differentiation. The expected down regulation of the pluripotency markers and upregulation of neuronal identity genes is observed.
