Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (hugene10st)
Description
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) resemble embryonic stem cells and can differentiate into cell derivatives of all three germ layers. However, frequently the differentiation efficiency of iPS cells into some lineages is rather poor. Here, we found that fusion of iPS cells with human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) enhances iPS cell differentiation. Such iPS hybrids showed a prominent differentiation bias towards hematopoietic lineages but also towards other mesendodermal lineages. Additionally, during differentiation of iPS hybrids expression of early mesendodermal markers - Brachyury (T), MIX1 Homeobox-Like Protein 1 (MIXL1) and Goosecoid (GSC) - appeared with faster kinetics than in parental iPS cells. Following iPS hybrid differentiation there was a prominent induction of NODAL and inhibition of NODAL signaling blunted mesendodermal differentiation. This indicates that NODAL signaling is critically involved in mesendodermal bias of iPS hybrid differentiation. In summary, we demonstrate that iPS cell fusion with HSC prominently enhances iPS differentiation.

Description
Mouse and human stem cells with features similar to those of embryonic stem cells have been derived from testicular cells. Although pluripotent stem cells have been obtained from defined germline stem cells (GSCs) of mouse neonatal testis, only multipotent stem cells have been obtained so far from defined cells of mouse adult testis. In this study we describe a robust and reproducible protocol for obtaining germline-derived pluripotent stem (gPS) cells from adult unipotent GSCs. Pluripotency of gPS cells was confirmed by in vitro and in vivo differentiation, including germ cell contribution and transmission. As determined by clonal analyses, gPS cells indeed originate from unipotent GSCs. We propose that the conversion process requires a GSC culture microenvironment that depends on the initial number of plated GSCs and the length of culture time.

Description
In neural stem cells, stimulation of the death receptor CD95 does not trigger apoptosis but resulted in increased stem cell survival and neuronal specification via activation of the Src /PI3K /AKT/mTOR signalling pathway. To further characterize CD95-dependent neural stem cell survival and differentiation we used conventional gene expression profiling combined with translation state array analysis. Mouse neural stem cells grown in neurosphere cultures were stimulated with a trimerized CD95L construct (CD95L-T4) and total as well as polysomal bound RNA was isolated 48 hours after stimulation and analysed by microarrays. CD95L-T4 treatment induced a global increase in ribosome-bound mRNA and protein translation as well as changes on genes involved in neurogenesis, protein synthesis and transcription factors.

Description
The proper mammalian oocytes maturation is recognized as reaching MII stage and accumulation of mRNA and proteins in cell cytoplasm following fertilization. The proper course of folliculogenesis and oogenesis is orchestrated with morphogenesis significantly influencing further zygote formation and embryos growth. This study was aimed to determinate new transcriptomic markers of porcine oocytes morphogenesis associated with cell maturation capacity.

Illumina HiSeq 2000
Description
Argonaute (Ago) proteins, which act in post-transcriptional gene regulation directed by small RNAs, are vital for normal stem cell biology. Here we report the genomic characterization of stable Ago-deficient mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) and determine the direct, primary and system level response to loss of Ago-mediated regulation. We find mESCs lacking all four Ago proteins are viable, do not repress microRNA (miRNA)-targeted cellular RNAs, and show distinctive gene network signatures. Profiling of RNA expression and epigenetic activity in an Ago mutant genetic series indicates that early responses to Ago loss are driven by transcriptional regulatory networks, in particular the Tgf-ß/Smad transcriptional network. This finding is confirmed using a time course analysis of Ago depletion and Ago rescue experiments. Detailed analysis places Tgf-ß/Smad activation upstream of cell cycle regulator activation, such as Cdkn1a, and repression of the c-Myc transcriptional network. The Tgf-ß/Smad pathway is directly controlled by multiple low-affinity miRNA interactions with Tgf-ß/Activin receptor mRNAs and receptor-mediated activation is required for Tgf-ß/Smad target induction with Ago loss. Our characterization reveals the interplay of post-transcriptional regulatory pathways with transcriptional networks in maintaining cell state and likely coordinating cell state transitions. Overall design: mRNA seq from stable genetic Dicer and Dgcr8 mutant mouse embryonic stem cells.
