1 ESC CONGRESS 2012, Munich Comparative study of human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from bone marrow cells, hair keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts I have no financial relationships to disclose Kaomei Guan, PhD Heart Research Center Göttingen Georg-August-University Göttingen

2 Patient-specific ips cell technology Reprogramming of somatic cells into ips cells: Cell Type Reprogramming: Reprogramming: OSNL or OSKM Keratinocyte Blood cell Plasmids Viruses MSC Skin fibroblast Proteins Small molecules ips cells Functional cardiomyocytes Understanding the pathophysiology of monogenetic and complex diseases Drug screening Development of novel patient-specific therapeutic strategies

3 Unanswered questions which donor cell source would be the best for the generation of hipscs? Are there differences in cardiac differentiation efficiency among ipscs with different origins? Are there functional differences in cardiomyocytes derived from ipscs with different origins?

4 Cell sources used for reprogramming Criteria: Non-invasive for the patient Fast proliferation and easy cultivation Enough cells for reprogramming Easy to be reprogrammed Hair follicles: Keratinocytes -non-invasive -not easy to cultivate Bone marrow aspirate: MSCs Skin biopsies: Fibroblasts -invasive -fast proliferation -mild invasive -fast proliferation

5 Isolation and cultivation of keratinocytes Dispase digestion Transfer hair follicles into culture dish Cultivation for days Outer root sheath cells

6 Isolation and cultivation of mesenchymal stem cells 800g 20 min Plate MN cells into culture dish BM aspirate Ficoll Mononuclear (MN) cells Cultivation for 7 10 days 7 days 10 days Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) 100 µm 100 µm

7 Comparison of three cell sources Plucked hairs (ca. 40) Bone marrow aspirate (10 ml) Skin punch (3.5 4 mm) Age of donors (years) Cell number after x x x 10 5 week cultivation Successful rate 95.7% (n=47) 100% (n=18) 100% (n=5)

24 Summary 1. Human ips cells can be generated from keratinocytes, MSCs, and fibroblasts with different advantages and disadvantages. 2. MSCs and fibroblasts are easier to be reprogrammed than keratinocytes. 3. All generated ips cells can differentiate into cardiomyocytes with efficiencies ranging from 10-41%, but highest in MSC-iPS cells. 4. Cardiomyocytes generated from ips cells with different cell origin show structurally and functionally comparable properties. 5. Rhythmically beating and force producing EHTs can be generated.
