Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have great potential for regenerative medicine, but genetic aberrations may occur during culture. In this study, two iPSC lines were periodically analyzed using advanced optical mapping, revealing the rapid increase of trisomic cells for chromosome 12 in one cell line. The analysis also identified numerous structural variations distinct from those found in the general population.
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold great potential for regenerative medicine. By reprogramming a patient ' s own cells, immunological rejection can be avoided during transplantation. For expansion and gene editing, iPSCs are grown in artificial culture for extended times. Culture affords potential danger for the accumulation of genetic aberrations. To study these, two induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell lines were cultured and periodically analyzed using advanced optical mapping to detect and classify chromosome numerical and segmental changes that included deletions, insertions, balanced translocations and inversions. In one of the lines, a population trisomic for chromosome 12 gained dominance over a small number of passages. This appearance and dominance of the culture by chromosome 12 trisomic cells was tracked through intermediate passages by the analysis of chromosome spreads. Mathematical modeling suggested that the proliferation rates of diploid versus trisomic cells could not account for the rapid dominance of the trisomic population. In addition, optical mapping revealed hundreds of structural variations distinct from those generally found within the human population. Many of these structural variants were detected in samples obtained early in the culturing process and were maintained in late passage samples, while others were acquired over the course of culturing.
