Abstract

Blood supply shortages, especially the shortage of rare blood types, threaten the current medical system. Research on stem cells has shed light on in vitro blood cell manufacturing. The in vitro production of universal red blood cells (RBCs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has become the focus of transfusion medicine. To obtain O-type Rh D-negative blood, we developed O-type Rh D-negative human (h)iPSCs using homology-directed repair (HDR)-based CRISPR/Cas9. HuAiPSCs derived from human umbilical arterial endothelial cells and showing haematopoietic differentiation preferences were selected for gene modification. Guide RNAs (gRNAs) were selected, and a donor template flanked by gRNA-directed homologous arms was set to introduce a premature stop code to RHD exon 2. CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing has resulted in the successful generation of an RHD knockout cell line. The HuAiPSC-A1-RHD cell line was differentiated into haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and subsequently into erythrocytes in the oxygen concentration-optimized differentiation scheme. HuAiPSC-A1-RHD derived erythrocytes remained positive for the RBC markers CD71 and CD235a. These erythrocytes did not express D antigen and did not agglutinate in the presence of anti-Rh D reagents. In conclusion, taking the priority of haematopoietic preference hiPSCs, the HDR-based CRISPR/Cas9 system and optimizing the erythroid-lineage differentiation protocol, we first generated O-type Rh D-negative universal erythrocytes from RHD knockout HuAiPSCs. Its production is highly efficient and shows great potential for clinical applications.

摘要

血液供应短缺,尤其是稀有血型短缺,威胁着当前的医疗体系。干细胞研究为体外血细胞制造带来了曙光。诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)体外生产通用红细胞(RBC)已成为输血医学的焦点。为了获得 O 型 Rh D-阴性血液,我们使用基于同源定向修复(HDR)的 CRISPR/Cas9 从 O 型 Rh D-阴性人(h)iPSC 中开发了 O 型 Rh D-阴性 hPSC。从人脐动脉内皮细胞中获得的 HuAiPSC 并表现出造血分化偏好的细胞被选择进行基因修饰。选择了向导 RNA(gRNA),并设置了一个由 gRNA 引导的同源臂侧翼的供体模板,以引入 RHD 外显子 2 中的提前终止密码子。CRISPR/Cas9 基因编辑导致成功产生 RHD 敲除细胞系。HuAiPSC-A1-RHD 细胞系分化为造血干细胞/祖细胞,随后在优化的氧浓度分化方案中分化为红细胞。HuAiPSC-A1-RHD 衍生的红细胞仍然对 RBC 标志物 CD71 和 CD235a 呈阳性。这些红细胞不表达 D 抗原,并且在存在抗 Rh D 试剂的情况下不凝集。总之,在优先考虑造血偏好的 hiPSC、基于 HDR 的 CRISPR/Cas9 系统和优化红系分化方案的情况下,我们首次从 RHD 敲除 HuAiPSC 中生成了 O 型 Rh D-阴性通用红细胞。其生产效率高,具有很大的临床应用潜力。
