Introduction
• Definition of human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESC)• Derived from preimplantation embryo• Proliferate without differentiation for a long
period• Have potential of stable differentiation
towards three embryonic layers and all types of cells of an embryo and an adult individual

• Particular situation in the USA• Approval of ethical committee is always
required (local or national)

to all three germ layers• Classic method used for
differentiation in the mouse•Plate the cells•Look for the interesting
cells

• PGD introduced in 1990 can be carried out for an increasing number of monogenic and chromosomal disorders for couples with a high risk of an affected child
• Affected embryos will not be transferred and may be used to derive human embryonic stem cell lines if there are no legal restrictions
• Belgium law (May 2003) on the protection of human embryo in vitro allows embryo research and derivation of hESC lines
![Page 20: 3-6-20151Herhaling titel van presentatie HUMAN EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS AND ITS POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS IN GENETICS Professor ANDRE VAN STEIRTEGHEM Koninklijke](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d2b5503460f94a006ca/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Different hES cell lines have different gene
expression characteristics comparative
studies are required before considering
clinical use
• Derivation of most cell lines using MEF
only for in vitro research
• Feeder-free conditions reported
(Klimanskaya et al. Lancet 365: 1636, 2005)

• Sofar at Vrije Universiteit Brussel 14 well
established hESC lines
• Four from genetically normal embryos
• Ten from genetically abnormal PGD embryos:
myotonic dystrophy, carrier cystic fibrosis,
Huntington disease, Marfan syndrome, fascio-
scapulo-humeral disease, spinocerebellar ataxia,
Fragile-X syndrome (2 lines), adult polykystic
kidney disease and bare lymphocyte syndrome

• Genetically normal and affected hES cell lines can be compared
• DM1, CF and HD common genetic diseases without treatment
• Model for human diseases: hES cell lines can be unlimited source of specific cell types involved in pathology of the disease eg CNS neurons in HD
• Study of mechanisms of dynamic mutations caused by unstable triplet repeats using hES cell lines from DM1 and HD
• CF line with F508 and 5T pathogenesis of CBAVD

• Each of the genetic diseases are very rare (< 5 births per 10,000) maximum of 200 000 affected patients per disease in European Union
• However, there are about 7000 different genetic diseases the number of affected patients is high (estimate in Europe of 25-30 million)
• Pharmacotherapy for genetic diseases is almost non-existing; validation of new compounds is currently almost impossible
• Search for biomarkers associated with the expression of mutated genes
![Page 24: 3-6-20151Herhaling titel van presentatie HUMAN EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS AND ITS POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS IN GENETICS Professor ANDRE VAN STEIRTEGHEM Koninklijke](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062714/56649d2b5503460f94a006ca/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Functional genomic studies can be
carried out to search for the molecular
mechanisms of the genetic diseases
• Using chemical data bases it may be
possible to discover molecules with
therapeutic potential
