Der größte Teil der Forschung, die sich auf die Untersuchung der Megakaryopoese mittels Durchflusszytometrie konzentriert, beschränkt sich bisher auf die Identifizierung von MK-Untergruppen, die nur linienspezifische Oberflächenmarker(d. H.CD42A / CD42B, CD41 / CD61) verwenden, während frühere MK-Differenzierungsstadien schlecht untersucht wurden. Im vorliegenden Artikel zeigen wir eine Immunphänotypisierungsstrategie, um eine umfassende durchflusszytometrische Charakterisierung der menschlichen Megakaryo...

Megakaryozyten (MKs) entwickeln sich aus hämatopoetischen Stammzellen (HSCs) nach einem komplexen Prozess namens Megakaryopoese, der hauptsächlich durch das Hormon Thrombopoietin (TPO) orchestriert wird. Die klassische Sicht der Megakaryopoese beschreibt die zelluläre Reise von HSCs durch eine Abfolge von hierarchischen Stadien engagierter Vorläufer und Vorläuferzellen, die letztendlich zu einem reifen MK führen. Während der Reifung erleben MKs mehrere Runden der Endomitose, entwickeln ein kompliziertes intrazelluläres Demarkationsmembransystem (DMS), das genügend Membranoberfläche für die Thrombozytenproduktion bietet, und produzieren und verpacken effizient die Fülle von Faktoren, die in den verschiedenen Granula enthalten sind, die von reifen Blutplättchen vererbt werden1,2,3. Infolgedessen sind reife MKs große Zellen (40-60 μm), die durch einen stark polyploiden Kern (bis >64N) gekennzeichnet sind. Jüngste Studien schlagen alternative Wege vor, auf denen sich HSCs in MKs differenzieren, die traditionelle Lineage-Commitment-Checkpoints als Reaktion auf bestimmte physiopathologischeBedingungenumgehen 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. Diese Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die hämatopoetische Differenzierung zum reifen MK ein Kontinuum und ein adaptiver Prozess ist, der auf biologische Bedürfnisse reagiert.
Mit dem zunehmenden Wissen über die Zellbiologie und die molekularen Aspekte, die die Megakaryopoese12charakterisieren, beschränkt sich der Großteil der Forschung, die der Untersuchung des Prozesses durch Durchflusszytometrie gewidmet ist, auf die Identifizierung reifer MKs mit linienspezifischen Oberflächenmarkern(d. H. CD42A / B, CD41 / CD61), während frühere MK-Differenzierungsstadien unerforscht bleiben. Wir haben zuvor eine Strategie zur Inszenierung der Megakaryopoese in Mausknochenmark und knochenmarkabgeleiteten MK-Kulturen13,14dokumentiert, die wir angepasst und auf den Menschen angewendet haben15. Im vorliegenden Artikel zeigen wir eine Immunphänotypisierungsstrategie, die die Charakterisierung der Megakaryopoese von HSCs bis hin zu reifen MKs in menschlichen Primärquellen (Knochenmark -BM- und peripheres Blut -PB-) oder in vitro-Kulturen unter Verwendung eines Panels ermöglicht, das MK-spezifische und unspezifische Oberflächenmarker (u.a. CD61, CD42B, CD49B, CD31, KIT und CD71) integriert. Trotz ihrer größe und Zerbrechlichkeit können MKs mit den oben genannten Zelloberflächenmarkern immunphänotypisiert und durch fluoreszenzaktivierte Zellsortierung unter bestimmten Druck- und Düsendurchmesserbedingungen angereichert werden, um Zellrupturen und / oder Schäden zu minimieren. Diese Technik ermöglicht Multi-Omics-Ansätze mit dem Ziel, die Komplexität der Megakaryopoese und der Thrombozytenproduktion in der menschlichen Gesundheit und Krankheit besser zu verstehen. Bemerkenswert ist, dass es sich als nützliches Werkzeug zur Unterstützung der Diagnose und Prognose in einem klinischen Kontext wachsender Nachfrage ässt.
In diesem Manuskript dokumentieren wir eine Strategie zur Inszenierung der menschlichen Megakaryopoese mit einem Panel, das MK-spezifische und unspezifische Oberflächenmarker aus Primärquellen integriert oder in vitroerzeugt. Zusätzlich stellen wir ein Protokoll zur Verfügung, um mit einem fluoreszenzaktivierten Zellsortierer die bevorzugten Fraktionen und ausgereiften MKs zu sortieren (Abbildung 1). Dieser Schritt ist nicht beliebt, da er aufgrund der Größe und Zerbrechlichkeit von MKs technisch schwierig ist. Es wurde jedoch sowohl in Maus- als auch in menschlichen Knochenmarkproben zuvor und aufgrund des technologischen Fortschritts mit einem besseren Ergebnis jedes Mal16,17,18verwendet. Zu den primären Quellen des Menschen, bei denen MKs oder MK-Vorläufer untersucht werden können, gehören unter anderem Knochenmark, Nabelschnurblut und peripheres Blut. Die richtige Probenverarbeitung, um die relevante Zellfraktion für die Analyse an jeder Probe zu isolieren, ist von Bedeutung. Standardverfahren werden integriert, wobei einige Überlegungen zu berücksichtigen sind, wenn es um die Untersuchung der Megakaryopoese geht.

immunophenotyping and cell sorting of human mks from human primary sources or differentiated in vitro from hematopoietic progenitors

Die Differenzierung von Megakaryozyten (MK) umfasst eine Reihe endobiotischer Zyklen, die zu einer hochgradig polyploiden (sogar >64N reichenden) und extrem großen Zelle (40-60 μm) führen. Im Gegensatz zu dem schnell wachsenden Wissen über Megakaryopoese auf zellbiologischer und molekularer Ebene beschränkt sich die Charakterisierung der Megakaryopoese durch Durchflusszytometrie auf die Identifizierung reifer MKs mit linienspezifischen Oberflächenmarkern, während frühere MK-Differenzierungsstadien unerforscht bleiben. Hier präsentieren wir eine Immunphänotypisierungsstrategie, die die Identifizierung aufeinanderfolgender MK-Differenzierungsstufen mit zunehmendem Ploidiestatus in menschlichen Primärquellen oder In-vitro-Kulturen mit einem Panel ermöglicht, das MK-spezifische und unspezifische Oberflächenmarker integriert. Trotz ihrer Größe und Zerbrechlichkeit können MKs mit dem oben genannten Panel immunphänotypisiert und durch fluoreszenzaktivierte Zellsortierung unter bestimmten Druck- und Düsendurchmesserbedingungen angereichert werden. Dieser Ansatz ermöglicht Multi-Omics-Studien mit dem Ziel, die Komplexität der Megakaryopoese und der Thrombozytenproduktion beim Menschen besser zu verstehen. Eine bessere Charakterisierung der Megakaryopoese kann für die Diagnose oder Prognose von abstammungsbedingten Pathologien und Malignitäten von grundlegender Bedeutung sein.

The Preparation of Primary Hematopoietic Cell Cultures From Murine Bone Marrow for Electroporation

It is becoming increasingly apparent that electroporation is the most effective way to introduce plasmid DNA or siRNA into primary cells. The Gene Pulser MXcell  electroporation system and Gene Pulser  electroporation buffer were specifically developed to transfect nucleic acids into mammalian cells and difficult-to-transfect cells, such as primary and stem cells.This video demonstrates how to establish primary hematopoietic cell cultures from murine bone marrow, and then prepare them for electroporation in the MXcell system. We begin by isolating femur and tibia. Bone marrow from both femur and tibia are then harvested and cultures are established. Cultured bone marrow cells are then transfected and analyzed.

This procedure describes how to establish primary hematopoietic cell cultures from murine bone marrow and is followed by transfection using the Gene Pulser MXCell electroporation system.

Primary Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells Grown from Explants

Human bronchial epithelial cells are needed for cell models of disease and to investigate the effect of excipients and pharmacologic agents on the function and structure of human epithelial cells. Here we describe in detail the method of growing bronchial epithelial cells from bronchial airway tissue that is harvested by the surgeon at the times of lung surgery (e.g. lung cancer or lung volume reduction surgery). With ethics approval and informed consent, the surgeon takes what is needed for pathology and provides us with a bronchial portion that is remote from the diseased areas. The tissue is then used as a source of explants that can be used for growing primary bronchial epithelial cells in culture. Bronchial segments about 0.5-1cm long and &le;1cm in diameter are rinsed with cold EBSS and excess parenchymal tissue is removed. Segments are cut open and minced into 2-3mm3 pieces of tissue. The pieces are used as a source of primary cells. After coating 100mm culture plates for 1-2 hr with a combination of collagen (30 &mu;g/ml), fibronectin (10 &mu;g/ml), and BSA (10 &mu;g/ml), the plates are scratched in 4-5 areas and tissue pieces are placed in the scratched areas, then culture medium (DMEM/Ham F-12 with additives) suitable for epithelial cell growth is added and plates are placed in an incubator at 37&deg;C in 5% CO2 humidified air. The culture medium is changed every 3-4 days. The epithelial cells grow from the pieces forming about 1.5 cm diameter rings in 3-4 weeks. Explants can be re-used up to 6 times by moving them into new pre-coated plates. Cells are lifted using trypsin/EDTA, pooled, counted, and re-plated in T75 Cell Bind flasks to increase their numbers. T75 flasks seeded with 2-3 million cells grow to 80% confluence in 4 weeks. Expanded primary human epithelial cells can be cultured and allowed to differentiate on air-liquid interface. Methods described here provide an abundant source of human bronchial epithelial cells from freshly isolated tissues and allow for studying these cells as models of disease and for pharmacology and toxicology screening.

Here we describe a detailed method for growing primary human bronchial epithelial cells from explants of human bronchial airway tissue including differentiated growth on an air-liquid interface. This method provides an abundant source of primary cells for investigating the role of the airway epithelium in human lung health and disease.

Efficient Derivation of Human Cardiac Precursors and Cardiomyocytes from Pluripotent Human Embryonic Stem Cells with Small Molecule Induction

To date, the lack of a suitable human cardiac cell source has been the major setback in regenerating the human myocardium, either by cell-based transplantation or by cardiac tissue engineering1-3. Cardiomyocytes become terminally-differentiated soon after birth and lose their ability to proliferate. There is no evidence that stem/progenitor cells derived from other sources, such as the bone marrow or the cord blood, are able to give rise to the contractile heart muscle cells following transplantation into the heart1-3. The need to regenerate or repair the damaged heart muscle has not been met by adult stem cell therapy, either endogenous or via cell delivery1-3. The genetically stable human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have unlimited expansion ability and unrestricted plasticity, proffering a pluripotent reservoir for in vitro derivation of large supplies of human somatic cells that are restricted to the lineage in need of repair and regeneration4,5. Due to the prevalence of cardiovascular disease worldwide and acute shortage of donor organs, there is intense interest in developing hESC-based therapies as an alternative approach. However, how to channel the wide differentiation potential of pluripotent hESCs efficiently and predictably to a desired phenotype has been a major challenge for both developmental study and clinical translation. Conventional approaches rely on multi-lineage inclination of pluripotent cells through spontaneous germ layer differentiation, resulting in inefficient and uncontrollable lineage-commitment that is often followed by phenotypic heterogeneity and instability, hence, a high risk of tumorigenicity6-8 (see a schematic in Fig. 1A). In addition, undefined foreign/animal biological supplements and/or feeders that have typically been used for the isolation, expansion, and differentiation of hESCs may make direct use of such cell-specialized grafts in patients problematic9-11. To overcome these obstacles, we have resolved the elements of a defined culture system necessary and sufficient for sustaining the epiblast pluripotence of hESCs, serving as a platform for de novo derivation of clinically-suitable hESCs and effectively directing such hESCs uniformly towards clinically-relevant lineages by small molecules12 (see a schematic in Fig. 1B). After screening a variety of small molecules and growth factors, we found that such defined conditions rendered nicotinamide (NAM) sufficient to induce the specification of cardiomesoderm direct from pluripotent hESCs that further progressed to cardioblasts that generated human beating cardiomyocytes with high efficiency (Fig. 2). We defined conditions for induction of cardioblasts direct from pluripotent hESCs without an intervening multi-lineage embryoid body stage, enabling well-controlled efficient derivation of a large supply of human cardiac cells across the spectrum of developmental stages for cell-based therapeutics.

We have established a protocol for induction of cardioblasts direct from pluripotent human embryonic stem cells maintained under defined conditions with small molecules, which enables derivation of a large supply of human cardiac progenitors and functional cardiomyocytes for cardiovascular repair.

Na&iuml;ve Adult Stem Cells Isolation from Primary Human Fibroblast Cultures

Over the last decade, several adult stem cell populations have been identified in human skin 1-4. The isolation of multipotent adult dermal precursors was first reported by Miller F. D laboratory 5, 6. These early studies described a multipotent precursor cell population from adult mammalian dermis 5. These cells--termed SKPs, for skin-derived precursors-- were isolated and expanded from rodent and human skin and differentiated into both neural and mesodermal progeny, including cell types never found in skin, such as neurons 5. Immunocytochemical studies on cultured SKPs revealed that cells expressed vimentin and nestin, an intermediate filament protein expressed in neural and skeletal muscle precursors, in addition to fibronectin and multipotent stem cell markers 6. Until now, the adult stem cells population SKPs have been isolated from freshly collected mammalian skin biopsies.
Recently, we have established and reported that a population of skin derived precursor cells could remain present in primary fibroblast cultures established from skin biopsies 7. The assumption that a few somatic stem cells might reside in primary fibroblast cultures at early population doublings was based upon the following observations: (1) SKPs and primary fibroblast cultures are derived from the dermis, and therefore a small number of SKP cells could remain present in primary dermal fibroblast cultures and (2) primary fibroblast cultures grown from frozen aliquots that have been subjected to unfavorable temperature during storage or transfer contained a small number of cells that remained viable 7. These rare cells were able to expand and could be passaged several times. This observation suggested that a small number of cells with high proliferation potency and resistance to stress were present in human fibroblast cultures 7.
We took advantage of these findings to establish a protocol for rapid isolation of adult stem cells from primary fibroblast cultures that are readily available from tissue banks around the world (Figure 1). This method has important significance as it allows the isolation of precursor cells when skin samples are not accessible while fibroblast cultures may be available from tissue banks, thus, opening new opportunities to dissect the molecular mechanisms underlying rare genetic diseases as well as modeling diseases in a dish.

We report a method to isolate na&#239;ve multipotent skin-derived precursor (SKP) cells from primary human fibroblast cultures. We show that these SKPs derived from fibroblast cultures share similar stem cell properties to the ones derived directly from human skin biopsies. These cells express the neural crest marker, nestin, in addition to the multipotent markers such as OCT4 and Nanog.

Isolation of Primary Myofibroblasts from Mouse and Human Colon Tissue

The myofibroblast is a stromal cell of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract that has been gaining considerable attention for its critical role in many GI functions. While several myofibroblast cell lines are commercially available to study these cells in vitro, research results from a cell line exposed to experimental cell culture conditions have inherent limitations due to the overly reductionist nature of the work. Use of primary myofibroblasts offers a great advantage in terms of confirming experimental findings identified in a cell line. Isolation of primary myofibroblasts from an animal model allows for the study of myofibroblasts under conditions that more closely mimic the disease state being studied. Isolation of primary myofibroblasts from human colon tissue provides arguably the most relevant experimental data, since the cells come directly from patients with the underlying disease. We describe a well-established technique that can be utilized to isolate primary myofibroblasts from both mouse and human colon tissue. These isolated cells have been characterized to be alpha-smooth muscle actin and vimentin-positive, and desmin-negative, consistent with subepithelial intestinal myofibroblasts. Primary myofibroblast cells can be grown in cell culture and used for experimental purposes over a limited number of passages.

The myofibroblast is an influential stromal cell of the gastrointestinal tract that regulates important physiologic processes in both normal and disease states. We describe a technique that allows for the isolation of primary myofibroblasts from both mouse and human colon tissue, which can be utilized for in vitro experimentation.

Efficient Generation Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Somatic Cells with Sendai-virus

A few years ago, the establishment of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) ushered in a new era in biomedicine. Potential uses of human iPSCs include modeling pathogenesis of human genetic diseases, autologous cell therapy after gene correction, and personalized drug screening by providing a source of patient-specific and symptom relevant cells. However, there are several hurdles to overcome, such as eliminating the remaining reprogramming factor transgene expression after human iPSCs production. More importantly, residual transgene expression in undifferentiated human iPSCs could hamper proper differentiations and misguide the interpretation of disease-relevant in vitro phenotypes. With this reason, integration-free and/or transgene-free human iPSCs have been developed using several methods, such as adenovirus, the piggyBac system, minicircle vector, episomal vectors, direct protein delivery and synthesized mRNA. However, efficiency of reprogramming using integration-free methods is quite low in most cases.
Here, we present a method to isolate human iPSCs by using Sendai-virus (RNA virus) based reprogramming system. This reprogramming method shows consistent results and high efficiency in cost-effective manner.

Here, we present our established method to reprogram human somatic cells into transgene-free human iPSCs with Sendai virus, which shows consistent outcome and enhanced efficiency.

In Vitro Pancreas Organogenesis from Dispersed Mouse Embryonic Progenitors

The pancreas is an essential organ that regulates glucose homeostasis and secretes digestive enzymes. Research on pancreas embryogenesis has led to the development of protocols to produce pancreatic cells from stem cells 1. The whole embryonic organ can be cultured at multiple stages of development 2-4. These culture methods have been useful to test drugs and to image developmental processes. However the expansion of the organ is very limited and morphogenesis is not faithfully recapitulated since the organ flattens. 
We propose three-dimensional (3D) culture conditions that enable the efficient expansion of dissociated mouse embryonic pancreatic progenitors. By manipulating the composition of the culture medium it is possible to generate either hollow spheres, mainly composed of pancreatic progenitors expanding in their initial state, or, complex organoids which progress to more mature expanding progenitors and differentiate into endocrine, acinar and ductal cells and which spontaneously self-organize to resemble the embryonic pancreas. 
We show here that the in vitro process recapitulates many aspects of natural pancreas development. This culture system is suitable to investigate how cells cooperate to form an organ by reducing its initial complexity to few progenitors. It is a model that reproduces the 3D architecture of the pancreas and that is therefore useful to study morphogenesis, including polarization of epithelial structures and branching. It is also appropriate to assess the response to mechanical cues of the niche such as stiffness and the effects on cell&#180;s tensegrity.

The three-dimensional culture method described in this protocol recapitulates pancreas development from dispersed embryonic mouse pancreas progenitors, including their substantial expansion, differentiation and morphogenesis into a branched organ. This method is amenable to imaging, functional interference and manipulation of the niche.

Isolation and Culture of Primary Oral Keratinocytes from the Adult Mouse Palate

For years, most studies involving keratinocytes have been conducted using human and mouse skin epidermal keratinocytes. Recently, oral keratinocytes have attracted attention because of their unique function and characteristics. They maintain the homeostasis of the oral epithelium and serve as resources for applications in regenerative therapies. However, in vitro studies that use oral primary keratinocytes from adult mice have been limited due to the lack of an efficient and well-established culture protocol. Here, oral primary keratinocytes were isolated from the palate tissues of adult mice and cultured in a commercial low-calcium medium supplemented with a chelexed-serum. Under these conditions, keratinocytes were maintained in a proliferative or stem cell-like state, and their differentiation was inhibited even after increased passages. Marker expression analysis showed that the cultured oral keratinocytes expressed the basal cell markers p63, K14, and &#945;6-integrin and were negative for the differentiation marker K13 and the fibroblast marker PDGFR&#945;. This method produced viable and culturable cells suitable for downstream applications in the study of oral epithelial stem cell functions in vitro.

The present protocol describes the isolation and culture of oral keratinocytes derived from the adult mouse palate. An evaluation method using immunostaining is also reported.

Single-Cell Sorting of Immunophenotyped Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth

The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of an organism possess an extraordinary capacity to differentiate into multiple lineages of adult cells in the body and are known for their immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. The use of these stem cells is a boon to the field of regenerative biology, but at the same time, a bane to regenerative medicine and therapeutics owing to the multiple cellular ambiguities associated with them. These ambiguities may arise from the diversity in the source of these stem cells and from their in vitro growth conditions, both of which reflect upon their functional heterogeneity.
This warrants methodologies to provide purified, homogeneous populations of MSCs&#160;for therapeutic applications. Advances in the field of flow cytometry have enabled the detection of single-cell populations using a multiparametric approach. This protocol outlines a way to identify and purify&#160;stem cells from&#160;human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) through fluorescence-assisted single-cell sorting. Simultaneous expression of surface markers, namely, CD90-fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), CD73-peridinin-chlorophyll-protein (PerCP-Cy5.5), CD105-allophycocyanin (APC), and CD44-V450, identified the &#34;bright,&#34; positive-expressors of MSCs&#160;using multiparametric&#160;flow cytometry. However, a significant drop was observed in percentages of quadruple expressors of these positive markers from passage 7 onwards to the later passages.
The immunophenotyped subpopulations were sorted using the single-cell sort mode where only two positive and one negative marker constituted the inclusion criteria. This methodology ensured the cell viability of the sorted populations and maintained cell proliferation post sorting. The downstream application for such sorting can be used to evaluate lineage-specific differentiation for the gated subpopulations. This approach can be applied to other single-cell systems to improve isolation conditions and for acquiring multiple cell surface marker information.
