Description

Culture system, kit and method for cell reprogramming TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of cells, in particular to a culture system, kit and method for reprogramming human somatic cells into sub-pluripotent stem cells. BACKGROUND

[0002] The essence of biological individual development is actually the process of establishing multiple cell lineages, in which cells face a series of fate regulation, and errors in cell fate regulation can lead to cells with abnormal state, function and type, which is an important reason for the formation of many major diseases. Establishing a method for precisely regulating cell fate is a basic approach to realize the regulation of individual development, physiology, metabolism and aging and other life activities as well as disease treatment. For a long time, cell fate regulation during development has been considered to be unidirectional and irreversible. However, after a long period of research by the laboratory of Deng Hongkui, Peking University, and other domestic and foreign laboratories, cell reprogramming technology has been established, which breaks this inherent cognition and opens a new era of stem cell and regenerative medicine research. In 2007, Japanese scientist Shinya Yamanaka reprogrammed human skin cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC or iPS) through four transcription factors OSKM, which has similar ability to embryonic stem cells. Through specific induction conditions, iPSCs can be differentiated into nearly 200 functional cells in the human body, and can be used for clinical treatment of many refractory / incurable diseases. However, since the transcription factors need to be inserted into the chromosome through a virus, it can damage the genomic stability and has a risk of tumorigenesis, which has great clinical risks.

[0003] It is well known that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted widespread attention from the public and academia due to their unique biological characteristics and potential therapeutic value. At present, the acquisition of MSCs can be generally divided into two categories. One is tissue-derived MSCs. Researchers have discovered and isolated mesenchymal stem cells from different human tissues, and MSCs from different tissues express tissue-specific genes. The therapeutic effects of MSCs from different tissues have obvious differences, and are also affected by many factors, including donor and tissue source, donor health status, cell heterogeneity, transplantation scheme, and reagents used for isolation, culture, cryopreservation and thawing, which greatly limit the therapeutic value of tissue-derived MSCs. The other is pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs. The acquisition of this type of MSCs depends on pluripotent stem cell technology, and the preparation of iPSCs is affected by many factors, such as selection of somatic cells, selection and optimization of mediating factors and vectors, iPSC cell culture, iPSC screening and identification, reprogramming efficiency, preparation period, etc. Moreover, iPSCs have tumorigenicity and potential clinical application risks, which are not yet recognized by the public.

[0004] Professor Deng Hongkui's research group first used chemical small molecules to reprogram mouse fibroblasts into iPSCs. Through chemical small molecule regulation of cell fate, it provides an accurate, flexible and controllable means for cell fate regulation, and brings new possibilities for the treatment of major diseases and regenerative medicine. In 2022, Deng Hongkui's laboratory published again, claiming to use chemical small molecule reprogramming technology to reprogram human fibroblasts / adipose mesenchymal stem cells into iPSCs. International research groups have successively published papers claiming that important signaling pathways in cells can be regulated by chemical small molecules to reprogram skin cells into functional cells such as myocardial cells, neural progenitor cells, and liver cells.

[0005] Chemical reprogramming is fundamentally different from traditional reprogramming techniques: traditional transgenic reprogramming techniques such as induced pluripotent stem cell technology (iPS technology) drive direct changes in cell fate through overexpression of endogenous transcription factors, and the induction process is difficult to control; while chemical reprogramming uses exogenous chemical small molecules to simulate external signal stimulation to drive cell fate to change in a phased manner. Therefore, this method is highly controllable and is expected to achieve precise regulation of cell fate, reverse cell identity and functional state, and make reverse development possible. The method of chemical reprogramming opens up a new field for cells to go from mature to juvenile state, which is also considered a key principle of regeneration and rejuvenation. Cell reprogramming has proven that the developmental direction of cells is reversible, and the reprogramming process starts from somatic cells, which can be induced into "young" adult cells with specific functionality by chemical small molecules. During the process of reprogramming somatic cells to pluripotent state, aging-related epigenetic markers are erased, and pluripotent genome OCT4 and other genes are not activated, and the cells do not reach stem cell homeostasis and are not tumorigenic, but their unique plastic state can be used for clinical treatment of various diseases caused by cell loss, such as Parkinson's disease and diabetes, and has broad application space. In view of this, the present application provides a culture system, kit and method for reprogramming somatic cells into sub-pluripotent stem cells.
