Abstract | It has been reported that human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) treated with BMP4 and inhibitors of TGF signaling (A83-01) and FGF signaling (PD173074), called BAP, can efficiently differentiate to extraembryonic (ExE) cells in vitro. Due to restricted access to human embryos, it is ethically impossible to test the developmental potential of ExE cells in vivo. Here, we demonstrate that most ExE cells expressed molecular markers for both trophoblasts (TBs) and amniotic cells (ACs). Following intra-uterine transplantation, ExE cells contributed to the mouse placenta. More interestingly, ExE cells could chimerize with the mouse blastocyst as, after injection into the blastocyst, they penetrated its trophectoderm. After implantation of the injected blastocysts into surrogate mice, human cells were found at E14 in placental labyrinth, junction zones, and even near the uterine decidua, expressed placental markers, and secreted human chorionic gonadotropin. Surprisingly, ExE cells also contributed to cartilages of the chimeric embryo with some expressing the chondrogenic marker SOX9, consistent with the mesodermal potential of TBs and ACs in the placenta. Deleting MSX2, a mesodermal determinant, restricted the contribution of ExE cells to the placenta. Thus, we conclude that hESC-derived ExE cells can chimerize with the mouse blastocyst and contribute to both the placenta and cartilages of the chimera consistent with their heteogenious nature. Intra-uterus and intra-blastocyst injections are novel and sensitive methods to study the developmental potential of ExE cells. |
