1. Collation of Small Molecule Kinase Inhibitor Libraries
<ol>
	<li>Collate inhibitor libraries from publicly accessible kinase inhibitor collections, e.g. Library of Integrated Network-based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) from Harvard Medical School, a targeted collection of 228 potent and selective kinase inhibitors (http://lincs.hms.harvard.edu), and the Protein Kinase Inhibitor Set (PKIS), a 376 compound collection assembled by industrial researchers (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembldb/extra/PKIS)13. Alternatively, assemble a bespoke kinase inhibitor collection from commercially available compounds. 
	NOTE: In our laboratory, we have assembled a collection of 72 potent and selective tool kinase inhibitors covering 51 primary target kinases, all of which are available from commercial sources.</li>
	<li>Assemble kinase inhibitors into 96-well plates for optimal high-throughput processing at multiple concentrations (use 1, 0.1 and 0.01 mM). Include in each plate control wells containing DMSO only and reference control inhibitors PD173074 (FGFRi) and Ruxolitinib (JAKi), which are known to promote na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states respectively. Annotate in a spreadsheet or similar software.</li>
</ol>
2. mESC Culture Conditions and Procedures for Screen Preparation
<ol>
	<li>Prepare 0.1% gelatin-coated 10 cm dishes by adding 5 mL of 0.1% (w/v) gelatin to 10 cm plates and incubate at room temperature for 5 min. Aspirate gelatin and let plate dry for 2 min.</li>
	<li>Culture any standard mESC line at 37 &#176;C 5% CO2 on 0.1% gelatin-coated 10 cm dishes in standard mESC media (see Materials Table) containing 100 ng/mL GST-LIF, 10% Fetal Calf Serum and 5% Knockout Serum Replacement. Replace media every day and passage mESCs at around 80% confluency every second day at a dilution of 1:5-1:10.</li>
	<li>To passage mESCs, aspirate media and wash with 5 mL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) per plate.</li>
	<li>Add 1 mL trypsin-EDTA (0.05% Trypsin, 0.02% EDTA) per plate of mESCs and incubate at 37 &#176;C for 10 min.</li>
	<li>Resuspend trypsinized cells in 4 mL of mESC media and centrifuge at 1,200 rpm for 5 min.</li>
	<li>Thoroughly resuspend cell pellet in 5 mL of mESC media, pipetting up and down to generate a single cell suspension.</li>
	<li>Count cells by combining a 10 &#181;L cell suspension and 10 &#181;L of Trypan Blue (0.4%). Place into a cell counting chamber or use a hemocytometer and light microscope.</li>
	<li>Seed 3 x 103 mESCs into 0.1% gelatin coated 96 well plates, final volume 100 &#181;L of media, using a multichannel pipette.</li>
	<li>Apply kinase inhibitors at 1:100 dilution (1 &#181;L inhibitor added to 100 &#181;L media) using a multi-channel pipette. Gently pipette media to mix inhibitor and cell suspension, then allow cells to settle in a tissue culture hood for 1 h to ensure equal distribution across the plating surface. Culture cells for 48 h without changing the media. 
	NOTE: Stock plates of 1/0.1/0.01 mM will give a final inhibitor concentration of 10/1/0.1 &#181;M respectively. we recommend starting the screen at a final concentration of 1 &#181;M to ensure effective inhibition of primary target kinases whilst minimizing off-target effects.</li>
</ol>
3. Kinase Inhibitor Screening Analysis
<ol>
	<li>Wash 96 well mESC plates in 200 &#181;L PBS using multi-channel aspirator and pipettes.</li>
	<li>Make cell extracts in 150 &#181;L of lysis buffer (20 mM Tris pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% NP-40 (v/v), 0.5% sodium deoxycholate (w/v), 10 mM &#946;-glycerophosphate, 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate, 1 mM NaF, 2 mM Na3VO4, Complete Protease Inhibitor Cocktail Tablets).</li>
	<li>Clarify extracts by centrifugation at 1,500 x g for 30 min in V-bottomed 96-well plates.</li>
	<li>Immobilize 100 &#181;L of supernatants onto a nitrocellulose membrane using a 96-well vacuum dot blot manifold.</li>
	<li>Dry the membrane, and stain with 40 mL of Ponceau S to ensure consistent transfer.</li>
	<li>Wash membrane with TBST and block in TBST/3% (w/v) milk.</li>
	<li>Incubate in Nanog and Dnmt3b antibodies at a dilution of 1:1,000 (v/v) in TBST/3% (w/v) milk powder overnight.</li>
	<li>Wash membranes in 3 x 10 min in TBST and incubate in 30 mL of secondary antibodies at a dilution of 1:10,000 (v/v) in TBST/3% (w/v) milk.</li>
	<li>Develop using a digital immunoblotting imaging system. 
	NOTE: If possible, use quantitative fluorescence immunoblotting to detect Nanog and Dnmt3b. However, the background signal for Dnmt3b by fluorescence immunoblotting is too high. Therefore, 800 nm fluorescence anti-rabbit (Nanog) and anti-mouse-HRP (Dnmt3b) secondary antibodies are used.</li>
</ol>
4. Analysis of Screen Data and Validation of Inhibitors as Bona Fide Pluripotency Regulators
NOTE: This is a critical step to ensure that only bona fide pluripotency modulators are identified. It is essential to triage inhibitors based on both Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio and overall signal, to ensure that kinase inhibitors which adversely affect mESC survival are not selected for further analysis.
<ol>
	<li>Quantify Nanog and Dnmt3b signal using immunoblotting analysis software, and import values into a spreadsheet or similar software. Calculate Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio for all samples compared to DMSO control. Also, determine total Nanog and Dnmt3b signal to ensure that kinase inhibitors do not affect Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio by altering mESC viability.</li>
	<li>Use ranked Nanog:Dnmt3b ratios to identify inhibitors which promote na&#239;ve pluripotency (Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio higher than control) and primed pluripotency (Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio lower than control). Set cut-off at 2x deviation from control values, and filter out kinase inhibitors which produce a total Nanog+Dnmt3b signal of less that 50% of the DMSO control value to generate a high confidence list of kinase inhibitors which stabilise na&#239;ve (high Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio) and primed (low Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio) pluripotent states.</li>
	<li>Validate kinase inhibitors by seeding mESCs at 2 x 105 cells per 6 well in 2 mL media, and add kinase inhibitors at 1 &#181;M for 48 h, without changing media.</li>
	<li>Lyse mESCs in lysis buffer and analyze Nanog and Dnmt3b expression by conventional SDS-PAGE immunoblotting.</li>
	<li>Further validate hits by SDS-PAGE immunoblotting for na&#239;ve pluripotency markers Klf2 and Klf4, and Oct4 to ensure that pluripotency is maintained following 48 h inhibitor treatment.</li>

Here we demonstrate a widely accessible methodology to probe the role of kinase signalling pathways in regulating na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transition. This addresses a key question in the ESC field. Although high-throughput genomics and transcriptomics approaches are routinely used to identify key transcriptional regulators of na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states, elucidating pluripotency signalling networks has proven to be challenging. We now provide a flexible strategy employing chemical inhibitors to identify kinases that control na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transition in mESCs. This relies on simple equipment, reagents and materials that are available to most laboratories that study cell signalling and ESC biology. Critical to the success of this platform is our development of a robust assay to quantify the transition between na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states. Establishing this assay required significant iterative modifications to cell plating density, time of inhibitor incubation and immunoblotting conditions.
Small molecule approaches are gaining traction for rational use in therapeutic ESC applications15,16. A major strength of small molecule screening is that tool compounds are designed and/or modified for efficient cellular uptake. Transfection efficiency is not limiting, and use of hazardous delivery systems such as lentivirus is not necessary. Furthermore, inhibitors frequently inhibit multiple isoforms within a kinase family (e.g. Fgfr1-4, Jak1-3), which overcomes functional redundancy that hinders genetic/genomic interference techniques such as RNAi and CRISPR/Cas9. As more potent and selective tool compounds become available from both academic and pharmaceutical drug discovery programmes, understudied and poorly understood kinases will be pushed to the forefront of ESC research. We therefore propose that this high-throughput screening approach will open up new avenues of research into core ESC regulatory networks.
One minor limitation of this technology is that even the most potent and selective small molecule inhibitors engage and inhibit multiple unrelated kinases in vivo. However, increasingly comprehensive kinase inhibitor profiling data allows functional targets of kinase inhibitors to be readily identified (http://lincs.hms.harvard.edu/kinomescan; http://www.kinase-screen.mrc.ac.uk/kinase-inhibitors). Finally, in principle our platform can be applied to interrogate any small molecule collection and/or cellular assay for which high-quality immunoblotting antibodies are available. This will allow study of multiple regulatory systems in pluripotency regulation and facilitate identification of small molecule inhibitors which modify diverse cellular processes. Specifically, we envisage that application of emerging small molecule collections such as the epigenetic probes being developed by the Structural Genomics Consortium (http://www.thesgc.org/chemical-probes/epigenetics) has the potential to uncover further novel regulators of pluripotent transitions.

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have the capacity to self-renew or differentiate into any cell type in the adult body, a phenomenon known as pluripotency1. Recent evidence indicates that developmentally distinct pluripotent states exist, termed &#34;na&#239;ve&#34; and &#34;primed&#34; pluripotency2. Na&#239;ve ESCs represent a state of development similar to that found in the preimplantation embryo3. In contrast, primed pluripotent ESCs are poised to exit pluripotency and differentiate into specialized embryonic lineages4,5.
Na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states are marked by distinct gene regulatory networks. Na&#239;ve pluripotency is characterized by expression of key pluripotency transcription factors such as Nanog, Krueppel-like transcription factors (Klfs), Rex12 and Esrrb6. In mouse ESCs (mESCs), primed pluripotency is characterized by reduced expression of na&#239;ve markers and a specific gene expression signature which includes the de novo DNA methyltransferase Dnmt3b7. In vivo, primed pluripotent post implantation epiblast stem cells (EpiSCs)4,5 additionally express the Epiblast marker Fgf5 and markers of lineage priming such as Brachyury8.
mESCs provide a tractable model to probe mechanisms that control na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transitions in vitro. When cultured in leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and fetal bovine serum (FBS), mESCs undergo dynamic transition between na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states9,10. LIF-Jak-Stat3 signaling functions to promote a na&#239;ve gene regulatory network11, whilst autocrine signaling via the fibroblast growth factor 4 (Fgf4) Erk1/2 pathway drives transition to the primed state12. However, it remains a challenge to systematically evaluate the role of protein kinases in specifying distinct pluripotent states.
Here, we describe a quantitative and scalable platform by which to perform targeted small molecule screens for kinase regulators of the na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transition. We use simple mESC culture conditions and standard reagents, materials and equipment to uncover and validate kinase inhibitors with hitherto unappreciated ability to stabilize na&#239;ve pluripotency. Furthermore, we discuss potential extended applications for this technology, including for screening of other small molecule collections such as emerging inhibitor libraries targeting epigenetic regulators.

a simple method to identify kinases that regulate embryonic stem cell pluripotency by high-throughput inhibitor screening

A Simple Method to Identify Kinases That Regulate Embryonic Stem Cell Pluripotency by High-throughput Inhibitor Screening

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can self-renew or differentiate into all cell types, a phenomenon known as pluripotency. Distinct pluripotent states have been described, termed &#34;na&#239;ve&#34; and &#34;primed&#34; pluripotency. The mechanisms that control na&#239;ve-primed transition are poorly understood. In particular, we remain poorly informed about protein kinases that specify na&#239;ve and primed pluripotent states, despite increasing availability of high-quality tool compounds to probe kinase function. Here, we describe a scalable platform to perform targeted small molecule screens for kinase regulators of the na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transition in mouse ESCs. This approach utilizes simple cell culture conditions and standard reagents, materials and equipment to uncover and validate kinase inhibitors with hitherto unappreciated effects on pluripotency. We discuss potential applications for this technology, including screening of other small molecule collections such as increasingly sophisticated kinase inhibitors and emerging libraries of epigenetic tool compounds.

Using the procedure presented here (Figure 1), we screen the LINCS library of 228 potent and selective kinase inhibitors to identify those which modulate mESC pluripotency. The library is prepared at a concentration of 0.1 mM for a 1:100 dilution and final screening concentration of 1 µM in mESCs. 48 h later, mESCs were lysed and extracts prepared for quantitative dot blot analysis of Nanog and Dnmt3b expression (Figure 2, top). Results from other screening concentrations are not represented here for brevity. Nanog:Dnmt3b ratio is determined for each kinase inhibitor and compounds ranked and a 2x cut-off applied (Figure 2, bottom). Total Nanog and Dnmt3b signal relative to control is overlaid onto inhibitor ranking and subjected to a 0.5x cut-off, to allow triaging of inhibitors which show significant mESC toxicity. Select kinase inhibitors which stabilize the naïve state are validated using conventional Nanog/Dnmt3b immunoblotting (Figure 3). The primary kinase targets of these inhibitors are presented in Table 1. We also demonstrate the applicability of this screen to identify inhibitors which stabilize the primed state14.

Table 1: Selected hit compounds and their primary kinase target(s).

Here, we present a quantitative and scalable protocol to perform targeted small molecule screens for kinase regulators of the na&#239;ve-primed pluripotent transition.

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) can self-renew or differentiate into all cell types, a phenomenon known as pluripotency. Distinct pluripotent states have been ...

The overall goal of this screen is to identify small molecule protein kinase inhibitors that modulate embryonic stem cell pluripotency. This method can help answer key questions in the embryonic stem cell signaling field by identifying novel protein kinase signaling pathways that regulate embryonic stem cell pluripotency. So the main advantage of this technique is that the screen is relatively easy to perform using standard laboratory equipment and readily available reagents.We first had the idea for this method when we realized that most research in pluripotency signaling pathways had completely ignored vast waves of the kinome. Prepare gelatin-coated 10 centimeter dishes by adding five milliliters of 0.1%gelatin to 10 centimeter plates. After incubating at room temperature for five minutes, aspirate the gelatin and let the plate dry for two minutes.Then, plate any standard mouse ES cell line on the coated dishes in standard mouse ES cell media containing 100 nanograms per milliliter of GST-tagged LIF, 10%fetal calf serum, and 5%knockout serum replacement. Culture the cells at 37 degrees celsius 5%CO2 and replace the media every day. Passage the mouse ES cells at around 80%confluency every second day by aspirating the media and washing with five milliliters of phosphate-buffered saline per plate.Then, add one milliliter of trypsin EDTA per plate of mouse ES cells and incubate at 37 degrees celsius for 10 minutes. Following incubation, re-suspend the trypsinized cells in four milliliters of media and centrifuge the cells at 1200 RPM for five minutes. Thoroughly re-suspend the resulting cell pellet in five milliliters of media, pipetting up and down to generate a single cell suspension.Count the cells by combining a 10 microliter cell suspension and 10 microliters of trypan blue. Place the mixture into a cell counting chamber or use a hemocytometer and light microscope. Next, seed 3000 mouse ES cells into 0.1%gelatin-coated 96 well plates in a final volume of 100 microliters of media using a multichannel pipette.Then, apply kinase inhibitors at a one to 100 dilution using a multichannel pipette. Gently pipette the media to mix the inhibitor and cell suspension. Then, allow the cells to settle in a tissue culture hood for one hour to ensure equal distribution across the plating surface.Culture the cells for 48 hours without changing the media. To begin the screening analysis, wash 96 well mouse ES cell plates in 200 microliters of PBS using a multichannel aspirator and pipettes. After washing, mix cell extracts in 150 microliters of lysis buffer.Clarify the extracts by centrifugation at 1500 times G for 30 minutes in V-bottomed 96 well plates. Then, immobilize 100 microliters of supernatants onto a nitrocellulose membrane using a 96 well vacuum dot plot manifold. Dry the membrane and stain with 40 milliliters of Ponceau S to ensure consistent transfer.After washing the membrane with TBST, block it in TBST plus 3%milk. Then, incubate the membrane in Nanog and Dnmt3b antibodies at a dilution of one to 1000 in the blocking buffer overnight. The next day, wash the membrane three times for 10 minutes in TBST.Then, incubate it in 30 milliliters of secondary antibodies at a dilution of one to 10, 000 in blocking buffer. Develop the membrane using a digital immunoblotting imaging system. It is critical to validate kinase inhibitors identified in the screen using conventional immunoblotting before proceeding.This helps remove false positives before further downstream analysis. Analyze the screen data and validate inhibitors as bonafide pluripotency regulators as described in the text protocol. Shown here is a representative Nanog dot plot from the performed screen.Positive control inhibitors which drive primed or naive pluripotency are highlighted. Also shown is a representative Dnmt3b dot plot from the performed screen. Positive control inhibitors which drive primed or naive pluripotency are again highlighted.In this plot, the inhibitors were ranked for the Nanog to Dnmt3b ratio. A two-fold Nanog to Dnmt3b ratio threshold is set to identify inhibitors that stabilize naive or primed pluripotency. Summed Nanog and Dnmt3b signals are also provided.In addition, kinase inhibitors selected for further validation are noted. Shown here is a conventional immunoblot validation of selected kinase inhibitors, Nanog and Dnmt3b immunoblots, as well as the Nanog to Dnmt3b ratio and the total signal are provided. After watching this video, you should have a good understanding of how to identify small molecule kinase inhibitors that modulate embryonic stem cell pluripotency.Once mastered, this technique can be done in 72 hours if performed properly. Though this method can provide insight into the kinase signaling pathways that control pluripotency, it can also be applied to embryonic stem cell differentiation and other regulatory systems such as epigenetic modifiers. Following the procedure, other libraries of small molecule inhibitors, such as those targeting epigenetic modifiers, can be used to identify new players in pluripotency regulation.After its development, this technique paved the way for our research group to elucidate novel pluripotency signaling pathways. We use this technique to identify a novel role for the amplified pathway in regulating pluripotency.
