While progress in organoid technology has been steadily advancing, many challenges remain including rampant batch-to-batch and cell line-to-cell line variability and irreproducibility. Here, we demonstrate that a major contributor to successful cortical organoid production is the manner in which hPSCs are maintained prior to differentiation. Optimal results were achieved using fibroblast-feeder-supported hPSCs compared to feeder-independent cells, related to differences in their transcriptomic states. Feeder-supported hPSCs display elevated activation of diverse TGFβ superfamily signaling pathways and increased expression of genes associated with naïve pluripotency. We further identify combinations of TGFβ-related growth factors that are necessary and together sufficient to impart broad telencephalic organoid competency to feeder-free hPSCs and enable reproducible formation of brain structures suitable for disease modeling."}],"extern":"1","doi":"10.1101/2019.12.13.875773","publisher":"Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory","title":"TGFβ superfamily signaling regulates the state of human stem cell pluripotency and competency to create telencephalic organoids","publication_status":"published","day":"13","author":[{"full_name":"Watanabe, Momoko","first_name":"Momoko","last_name":"Watanabe"},{"last_name":"Haney","first_name":"Jillian R.","full_name":"Haney, Jillian R."},{"first_name":"Neda","full_name":"Vishlaghi, Neda","last_name":"Vishlaghi"},{"last_name":"Turcios","first_name":"Felix","full_name":"Turcios, Felix"},{"last_name":"Buth","full_name":"Buth, Jessie E.","first_name":"Jessie E."},{"first_name":"Wen","full_name":"Gu, Wen","last_name":"Gu"},{"first_name":"Amanda J.","full_name":"Collier, Amanda J.","last_name":"Collier"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-6618-6889","last_name":"Miranda","id":"862A3C56-A8BF-11E9-B4FA-D9E3E5697425","first_name":"Osvaldo","full_name":"Miranda, Osvaldo"},{"last_name":"Chen","first_name":"Di","full_name":"Chen, Di"},{"last_name":"Sabri","full_name":"Sabri, Shan","first_name":"Shan"},{"first_name":"Amander T.","full_name":"Clark, Amander T.","last_name":"Clark"},{"last_name":"Plath","full_name":"Plath, Kathrin","first_name":"Kathrin"},{"first_name":"Heather R.","full_name":"Christofk, Heather R.","last_name":"Christofk"},{"first_name":"Michael J.","full_name":"Gandal, Michael J.","last_name":"Gandal"},{"first_name":"Bennett G.","full_name":"Novitch, Bennett G.","last_name":"Novitch"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","month":"12","status":"public","type":"preprint","page":"75","oa_version":"Preprint","citation":{"chicago":"Watanabe, Momoko, Jillian R.
