Summary |
The introduction and widespread adoption of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has opened new avenues for craniofacial regenerative medicine. Neural crest cells (NCCs) are the precursor population to many craniofacial structures, including dental and periodontal structures, and iPSC-derived NCCs may, in the near future, offer an unlimited supply of patient-specific cells for craniofacial repair interventions. Here, we used an established protocol involving simultaneous Wnt signaling activation and TGF-β signaling inhibition to differentiate three human iPSC lines to cranial NCCs. We then derived a putative craniofacial mesenchymal progenitor (PCMP) population with chondrogenic and osteogenic potential from cranial NCCs and investigated their similarity to widely studied human postnatal dental or periodontal stem/progenitor cells. PCMPs were quite distinct from both their precursor cells (NCCs) and bone-marrow mesenchymal stromal cells, a stromal population of mesodermal origin. Despite their similarity with dental stem/progenitor cells, PCMPS were clearly differentiated by a core set of 66 genes, including ACKR3 (CXCR7), whose expression (both at transcript and protein level) appear to be peculiar to PCMPs. Altogether, our data demonstrate the feasibility of craniofacial mesenchymal progenitor derivation from human iPSCs through a neural crest-intermediate and set the foundation for future studies regarding their full differentiation repertoire and their in vivo existence.

Overall design |
We performed microarray analysis of triplicate samples for six different human cell populations, namely human iPSC-derived neural crest cells (NCCs), human NCC-derived putative craniofacial mesenchymal progenitors (PCMPs), stem cells of the apical papilla (SCAP), dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs).
