| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
By using a micro-nano devices, we successfully isolated and culture single cell-derived two novel pluripotent cell subtypes co-existing in the conventional hiPSCs population. Both types can be stably maintained and keep their properties inherited during proliferation. One type holds higher pluripotency, and is more sensitive to the microenvironment. We discovered a serum response factor-based regulation loop, which explained the relevance among cell-matrix adhesion, cell-cell adhesion, pluripotent stem cell morphology and pluripotency. We also found the high cell-matrix adhesion repressed the expression of some pluripotency-related genes, implying that the low-adhesion substrate may be a more suitable substrate for high-pluripotency state cells culture. A mathematical model was constructed and experimentally verified. It helped to provide a mechanistic view on the relationship among adhesion, pluripotent stem cell morphology and pluripotency.
