Summary:
Dua laboratorium di Cina telah secara mandiri berhasil mengubah sel kulit menjadi neuron hanya menggunakan koktail bahan kimia , dengan satu kelompok menggunakan sel manusia dari individu yang sehat dan pasien Alzheimer , dan kelompok lainnya menggunakan sel dari tikus . Kedua penelitian memperkuat gagasan bahwa pendekatan murni kimia adalah cara yang menjanjikan untuk meningkatkan penelitian pemrograman ulang sel

Two labs in China have independently succeeded in transforming skin cells
into neurons using only a cocktail of chemicals, with one group using human
cells from healthy individuals and Alzheimer's patients, and the other group
using cells from mice. The two studies reinforce the idea that a purely
chemical approach is a promising way to scale up cell reprogramming research
that may avoid the technical challenges and safety concerns associated with the
more popular method of using transcription factors. Both papers appear on
August 6 in the journalCell Stem Cell.
One of the challenges of forcing cells to change identity is that the cells
you end up with may look normal but have different internal activities than
their naturally forming counterparts. The two papers provide evidence that
similar gene expression, action potentials, and synapse formation can be
detected in transcription-factor-induced neurons as those generated from the
chemical cocktails. (Both groups used mixtures of seven small molecules, but
different recipes--outlined in detail in the supplemental information section
of each paper--because they focused on different species.)
"We found that the conversion process induced by our chemical strategy
is accompanied by the down-regulation of [skin-cell] specific genes and the
increased expression of neuronal transcription factors," said human study
co-author Jian Zhao, of the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences and
Tongji University. "By coordinating multiple signaling pathways, these
small molecules modulate neuronal transcription factor gene expression and
thereby promote the neuronal cell transition." The authors add that the
direct conversion bypasses a proliferative intermediate progenitor stage, which
circumvents safety issues posed by other reprogramming methods.
Zhao's paper, co-led with cell biologist Gang Pei, also shows that the pure
chemical protocol can be used to make neurons from the skins cells of
Alzheimer's patients. Most of the work using patient stem cells has been done
by using transcription factors--molecules that affect which genes are expressed
in a cell--to create induced pluripotent stem cells. Chemical cell
reprogramming is seen as an alternative for disease modeling or even potential
cell replacement therapy of neurological disorders, but the
"proof-of-concept" is still emerging.
"In comparison with using transgenic reprogramming factors, the small
molecules that are used in this chemical approach are cell permeable;
cost-effective; and easy to synthesize, preserve, and standardize; and their
effects can be reversible," says mouse study co-author Hongkui Deng of the
Peking University Stem Cell Research Center. "In addition, the use of
small molecules can be fine-tuned by adjusting their concentrations and
duration, and the approach bypasses the technical challenges and safety
concerns of genetic manipulations, which may be promising in their future
applications."
Deng worked for four years with Zhen Chai and Yang Zhao, also of Peking
University, to identify the small molecules that could create chemically
induced mouse neurons. Researchers had been close for years, but a
transcription factor was always necessary to complete the transformation.
Through many chemical screens they identified the key ingredient, I-BET151,
which works to suppress transcription in skin cells. They then found the right
steps and conditions to mature the neurons post-transformation.
The authors of both papers aim to learn more about the biology behind
chemically induced reprogramming and to make the protocols more efficient.
While their success is promising, there are still a number of hurdles to
overcome.
"We hope in the future that the chemical approaches would be more
robust in inducing functional mature neurons," Deng says. "In addition,
we are attempting to generate specific neuronal subtypes and patient-specific
functional neurons for translational medicine by using pure chemicals."
Jian Zhao, of the human study, says: "It should be possible to
generate different subtypes of neurons with a similar chemical approach but
using slightly modified chemical cocktails." She adds: "It also needs
to be explored whether functional neurons could be induced by chemical
cocktails in living organisms with neurological diseases or injury."
