Аннотация:To date different cell types of various
mammalian species have been reprogrammed by
Yamanaka’s cocktail of transcription factors, includ-
ing OCT4, KLF4, SOX2, and C-MYC. It has been al-
so shown that several primary human cancer cell lines
were reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells
(iPSCs). We sought if widely used mouse fibroblast
cell lines could be reprogrammed to iPSCs. This ap-
proach of generating iPSCs from stable murine cell
lines assumed to be valuable for different experimental
settings as it allows generating CRISPER/CAS9 base
mutant cell lines that can be assayed in reprogram-
ming. At the other hand only single study has reported
reprogramming murine carcinoma cell line. To this
regard we investigated reprogramming two fibroblast-
originated cell lines, NIH-3T3 and STO, with use of
highly effective lentiviral polycistronic OKSM expres-
sion system. The reprogramming of wild type murine
embryonic fibroblasts and NIH-3T3 and STO cells
were performed with the conventional method with
use of feeder embryonic fibroblasts and N2B27 2i me-
dia. Two independent reprogramming experiments
have shown that in contrast to control wild-type fibro-
blasts, NIH-3T3 and STO cells could not be repro-
grammed to pluripotent state. While in all groups has
been seen generation of cell clones, NIH-3T3 and
STO clones were developed much later then wild type
ones, and they contained round and larger cells, which
are not typical for iPSCs colonies. Alkaline phospha-
tase and immunostaining on Nanog and SSEA1 con-
firmed that the cell colonies derived from NIH-3T3
and STO did not express these pluripotency markers.
Furthermore in contrast to wild-type fibroblast de-
rived iPSC clones, NIH-3T3 and STO clones could
not be maintained by multiple cell passaging in em-
bryonic cell media. Thus this data suggest that proba-
bly genetic abnormalities or abnormal cell signaling or
both could make these immortalized cell lines be re-
fractory to reprogramming to pluripotent state.
