タイトル Tumorigenicity assay essential for facilitating safety studies of hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes for clinical application.
ジャーナル Sci Rep
Abstract Transplantation of cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-CMs) is a promising treatment for heart failure, but residual undifferentiated hiPSCs and malignant transformed cells may lead to tumor formation. Here we describe a highly sensitive tumorigenicity assay for the detection of these cells in hiPSC-CMs. The soft agar colony formation assay and cell growth analysis were unable to detect malignantly transformed cells in hiPSC-CMs. There were no karyotypic abnormalities during hiPSCs subculture and differentiation. The hiPSC markers TRA1-60 and LIN28 showed the highest sensitivity for detecting undifferentiated hiPSCs among primary cardiomyocytes. Transplantation of hiPSC-CMs with a LIN28-positive fraction > 0.33% resulted in tumor formation in nude rats, whereas no tumors were formed when the fraction was < 0.1%. These findings suggested that combination of these in vitro and in vivo tumorigenecity assays can verify the safety of hiPSC-CMs for cell transplantation therapy.
