Conditional CRISPR-mediated deletion of Lyn kinase enhances differentiation and function of iPSC-derived megakaryocytes.
Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH 2022 jan
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombocytopenia leading to life-threatening excessive bleeding can be treated by platelet transfusion. Currently, such treatments are totally dependent on donor-derived platelets. To support future applications in the use of in vitro-derived platelets, we sought to identify genes whose manipulation might improve the efficiency of megakaryocyte production and resulting hemostatic effectiveness. Disruption of Lyn kinase has previously been shown to improve cell survival, megakaryocyte ploidy and TPO-mediated activation in mice, but its role in human megakaryocytes and platelets has not been examined. METHODS To analyze the role of Lyn at defined differentiation stages during human megakaryocyte differentiation, conditional Lyn-deficient cells were generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology in iPS cells. The efficiency of Lyn-deficient megakaryocytes to differentiate and become activated in response to a range of platelet agonists was analyzed in iPSC-derived megakaryocytes. RESULTS Temporally controlled deletion of Lyn improved the in vitro differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells into mature megakaryocytes, as measured by the rate and extent of appearance of CD41+ CD42+ cells. Lyn-deficient megakaryocytes also demonstrated improved hemostatic effectiveness, as reported by their ability to mediate clot formation in rotational thromboelastometry. Finally, Lyn-deficient megakaryocytes produced increased numbers of platelet-like particles (PLP) in vitro. CONCLUSIONS Conditional deletion of Lyn kinase increases the hemostatic effectiveness of megakaryocytes and their progeny as well as improving their yield. Adoption of this system during generation of in vitro-derived platelets may contribute to both their efficiency of production and their ability to support hemostasis.
Establishment of a human iPSC line (SUTCMi001-A) derived from a healthy donor.
Stem cell research 2022 aug
Abstract
This study describes the characterization of one induced pluripotent stem cell line (iPSC) from a healthy female. It is crucial to use iPSCs derived from healthy individuals as controls in genetic disease studies. Thus, we established a human iPSC cell line derived from healthy people. The iPSC cell line was generated in our lab from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a 28-year-old girl. The generated hiPSC line is free of episomal vectors, has a normal karyotype, expresses pluripotency markers and can differentiate into three germ layers in vivo.
iPSC-Based Modeling of RAG2 Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Reveals Multiple T Cell Developmental Arrests.
Stem cell reports 2020 feb
Abstract
RAG2 severe combined immune deficiency (RAG2-SCID) is a lethal disorder caused by the absence of functional T and B cells due to a differentiation block. Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a RAG2-SCID patient to study the nature of the T cell developmental blockade. We observed a strongly reduced capacity to differentiate at every investigated stage of T cell development, from early CD7-CD5- to CD4+CD8+. The impaired differentiation was accompanied by an increase in CD7-CD56+CD33+ natural killer (NK) cell-like cells. T cell receptor D rearrangements were completely absent in RAG2SCID cells, whereas the rare T cell receptor B rearrangements were likely the result of illegitimate rearrangements. Repair of RAG2 restored the capacity to induce T cell receptor rearrangements, normalized T cell development, and corrected the NK cell-like phenotype. In conclusion, we succeeded in generating an iPSC-based RAG2-SCID model, which enabled the identification of previously unrecognized disorder-related T cell developmental roadblocks.
