Culture and differentiation of embryonic stem cells Hong-Lin Su Department of Life Sciences, National Chung-Hsing University Topics-ES cell maintenance • Establishment • Culture condition, including the serum, LIF and the feeder cells • Mouse strains • Non-rodent ES cells • Why ICM? 4 2 8 8 16 64 compaction compaction Morula blastocyst h Teratoma and teratocarcinoma • Definition: a tumor containing an array of somatic cells • usually occur in germ cells • The most common form: ovarian dermoid cyst; which are parthenogenetically activated and usually benign. • Testicular carcinoma: rarely occur, usually malignant; the cell morphology resembles the primordial germ cells (PGC). James Thomso Human ES cell maintenance • Establishment • Culture condition: LIF-independent • Serum: FGF, nodal/activin and Wnt and KSR; LIF • Feeder still important • Why ICM Derivation of pluripotent epiblast stem cells from mammalian embryos New cell lines from mouse epiblast share defining features with human embryonic stem cells The differences between the mouse and human ES cells • • • • • Morphology LIF or FGF dependence or independence Growth condition BMP responsibility Activin/nodal responsibility EpiSC cell culture Pleuripotency markers of EpiSC Pleuripotency in vivo Pleuripotency in vitro Oct4 methylation status in mouse epiSC and ES cells EpiSC is more similar to hESC Fail of integration into inner cell mass EpiSC cells are AP negative Neural Induction Topics for neural induction • BMP- and Wnt antagonists are essential • Culture condition: RA+serum, SDIA, neurobasal/N2, SFEB • ES to neuron: relief LIF, detaching and proper cell density • Mouse ES: tend to become neuron; Human ES: tend to become mesoendoderm • FGF is a determining factor for neurogenesis • Is the ES-derived neural cells the same as embryonic neuroepithelial cells?

Neurosci. 2005), cerebellum and retinal ganglion cells (Dev. Biol, 2006; PNAS, 2005). • SDIA method: midbrain dopaminergic neurons (Neuron, 2000; PNAS, 2002), neural crest derived peripheral neurons (PNAS, 2004). Generation of Cerebellar Neuron Precursors from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells Patterning factors for upper rhombic lips dorsal BMP ventral EGL precursor neurons are induced from ES cells by using SFEB method Generation of Cerebellar Purkinje cells from ES cells Conclusion • Math1 positive EGL precursor cells are generated by using the BMP4+Wnt3a/SFEB method. • Math1-ES cells faithfully express the specific EGL markers and functional ion channels of IGL cells. • Cerebellar Purkinje cells are successfully generated from ES cells under the similar induction condition of EGL-ES cells.
