Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) fall in two states, one highly undifferentiated, the naïve state, and the primed state, characterized by the inability to contribute to germinal lineage. Several reports have demonstrated that these states can be modified by changes to the cell culture conditions. With the advent of nuclear reprogramming, bovine induced pluripotent stem cells (biPSCs) have been generated. These cells represent examples of a transient-intermediate state of pluripotency with remarkable characteristics and biotechnological potential. Herein, we generated and characterized biPSC. Next, we evaluated different culture conditions for the ability to affect the expression of the set of core pluripotent transcription factors in biPSC. It was found that the use of 6-bromoindirubin-3-oxime and Sc1 inhibitors alone or in combination with 5-AzaC induced significantly higher levels of expression of endogenousREX1,OCT4,NANOG, andSOX2. Furthermore, LIF increased the levels of expression ofOCT4andREX1, compared with those cultured with LIF + bFGF. By contrast, bFGF decreased the levels of expression for bothREX1andOCT4. These results demonstrate that the biPSC gene expression profile is malleable by modification of the cell culture conditions well after nuclear reprogramming, and the culture conditions may determine their differentiation potential.

Stem cell research is essential not only for the research and treatment of human diseases, but also for the genetic preservation and improvement of animals. Since embryonic stem cells (ESCs) were established in mice, substantial efforts have been made to establish true ESCs in many species. Although various culture conditions were used to establish ESCs in cattle, the capturing of true bovine ESCs (bESCs) has not been achieved. In this review, the difficulty of establishing bESCs with various culture conditions is described, and the characteristics of proprietary induced pluripotent stem cells and extended pluripotent stem cells are introduced. We conclude with a suggestion of a strategy for establishing true bESCs.

Abstract Background Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disorder affecting ~1% of the world’s population. It is largely heritable with genetic risk reflected by a combination of common variants of small effect and highly penetrant rare mutations. Chromatin modifications are known to play critical roles in the mediation of many neurodevelopmental processes, and, when disturbed, may also contribute to the precipitation of psychiatric disorders, such as SCZ. While a handful of candidate-based studies have measured changes in promoter-bound histone modifications, few mechanistic studies have been carried out to explore how these modifications may affect chromatin to precipitate behavioral phenotypes associated with the disease. Methods We applied an unbiased proteomics approach to evaluate the epigenetic landscape of SCZ in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC), neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neurons from SCZ patients vs. matched controls. We utilized proteomics-based, label free liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) on purified histones from these cells and confirmed our results by western blotting in postmortem SCZ cortical brain tissues. Furthermore we validated our findings with the application of histone interaction assays and structural and biophysical assessments to identify and confirm novel chromatin ‘readers’. To relate our findings to a SCZ phenotype we used a SCZ rodent model of prepulse inhibition (PPI) to perform pharmacological manipulations and behavioral assessments. Results Using label free mass spectrometry we performed PTM screening of hiPSCs, NPCs and matured neurons derived from SCZ patients and matched controls. We identified, amongst others, altered patterns of hyperacetylation in SCZ neurons. Additionally we identified enhanced binding of particular acetylation ‘reader’ proteins. Pharmacological inhibition of such proteins in an animal model of amphetamine sensitization ameliorated PPI deficits further validating this epigenetic signature in SCZ. Discussion Recent evidence indicates that relevance and patterns of acetylation in epigenetics advances beyond its role in transcription and small molecule inhibitors of these aberrant interactions hold promise as useful therapeutics. This study identifies a role for modulating gene expression changes associated with a SCZ epigenetic signature and warrants further investigation in terms of how this early gene expression pattern perhaps determines susceptibility or severity of the SCZ disease trajectory.
