Spatiotemporal compartmentalization of key physiological processes during muscle precursor differentiation.

View SamplesStem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Using PSM development as a guide to establish conditions for the differentiation of monolayer cultures of embryonic stem (ES) cells into PSM-like cells without the introduction of transgenes or cell sorting.

View SamplesA microarray time series was generated to identify cyclic genes of the segmentation clock in the mouse. The right posterior half presomitic mesoderms (PSM) from 17 mouse embryos were dissected while the contralateral side of the embryo containing the left PSM was immediately fixed to be analyzed by in situ hybridization using a Lfng probe to order the samples along the segmentation clock oscillation cycle. Probes were produced from RNA extracted from the 17 dissected posterior half PSMs using a two-step amplification protocol and were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip MOE430A. The reproducibility of the amplification procedure was initially assessed by comparing array data generated from the right and the left posterior PSM from the same embryo. Because of the symmetry of the paraxial mesoderm along the left-right axis, left and right samples are expected to show overtly similar gene expression. RNA was amplified from three such sample pairs (1, a and b; 2, a and b; 3, a and b) and hybridized on Murine Genome U74Av2 array (MG-U74Av2)

View SamplesPurpose: In this study, we identify global transcriptome alterations following removal of individual or multiple miR-196 family members in mouse. Next generation sequencing-derived transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) was performed. Methods: A GFP reporter cassette was engineered to replace the mature miR-196a1 and miR-196a2 miRNA genomic loci in mouse (creating a knockout). GFP positive cells from an extensive knock-out allellic series of the three individual miR-196 genes, as detailed below, were isolated from E9.5 mouse embryos by FACS. miR-196b knockout cells were not marked with a fluorescent reporter and an assumption of co-expression with miR-196a2 was made. mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing in a minimum of four biological replicates per genotype, using an Illumina HiSeq 2000 instrument. Read information was mapped to the mouse genome and processed as described. Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of embryonic transcriptomes following loss of single and multiple miR-196 family members. We identify complex dysregulation of many Hox genes, in addition to key developmental signalling pathways involved in somitogenesis. Overall design: mRNA profiles of E9.5 mouse embryos with miR-196 loss-of-function were generated by deep sequencing, in a minimum of four biological replicates, using Illumina HiSeq 2000.

View SamplesStem cell-derived tissues have wide potential for modelling developmental and pathological processes as well as cell-based therapy. However, it has proven difficult to generate several key cell types in vitro, including skeletal muscle. In vertebrates, skeletal muscles derive during embryogenesis from the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). Using PSM development as a guide, we establish conditions for the differentiation of monolayer cultures of human pluripotent stem (hPSC) cells into PSM-like cells without the introduction of transgenes or cell sorting. We differentiated human PSCs in serum-free medium supplemented with Chir99021 only (C medium) or with also the Bmp inhibitor LDN193189 (CL medium). In vivo, the PSM cells are first expressing MSGN1 (posterior PSM marker) and then mature to express Pax3 (anterior PSM marker). After 4-5 days of differentiation of hPSCs, MSGN1-positive cells were FACS-sorted and their transcriptome analyzed.
