description | Neurodegeneration causes a significant disease burden and there are few therapeutic interventions available for reversing or slowing the disease progression. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold significant potential since they are sourced from adult tissue and have the capacity to be differentiated into numerous cell lineages, including motor neurons. This differentiation process traditionally relies on cell lineage patterning factors to be supplied in the differentiation media. Genetic engineering of iPSC with the introduction of recombinant master regulators of motor neuron (MN) differentiation has the potential to shorten and streamline cell developmental programs. We have established stable iPSC cell lines with transient induction of exogenous LHX3 and ISL1 from the Tet-activator regulatory region and have demonstrated that induction of the transgenes is not sufficient for the development of mature MNs in the absence of neuron patterning factors. Comparative global transcriptome analysis of MN development from native and Lhx-ISL1 modified iPSC cultures demonstrated that the genetic manipulation helped to streamline the neuronal patterning process. However, leaky gene expression of the exogenous MN master regulators in iPSC resulted in the premature activation of genetic pathways characteristic of the mature MN function. Dysregulation of metabolic and regulatory pathways within the developmental process affected the MN electrophysiological responses. |
