Decoding the Transcriptional Program for Blood Development from Single Cell Gene Expression Measurements

ABSTRACT: Blood and cardiovascular development represent paradigms of embryonic organ formation, with increasingly specialised cells generated from early mesoderm. Here, we map the progression of mesoderm towards blood by single cell expression analysis of 3,934 cells, aiming to capture an entire embryo equivalent of cells with blood-forming potential at four sequential developmental stages. Using novel computational approaches, we reconstruct the developmental journey at single cell resolution, which reveals asynchrony of maturation and sequential waves of expression for major regulators. Considering transitions between individual cellular states, we synthesise executable transcriptional regulatory network models that recapitulate blood development. Using mouse embryos and embryonic stem cells, we validate model predictions by showing that Sox7 inhibits primitive erythropoiesis, and that Sox and Hox factors control early expression of Erg. We therefore demonstrate that single cell analysis of a developing organ coupled with novel computational approaches can reveal the transcriptional programs that control organogenesis.

Decoding the regulatory network of early blood development from single-cell gene expression measurements.

Project description:Reconstruction of the molecular pathways controlling organ development has been hampered by a lack of methods to resolve embryonic progenitor cells. Here we describe a strategy to address this problem that combines gene expression profiling of large numbers of single cells with data analysis based on diffusion maps for dimensionality reduction and network synthesis from state transition graphs. Applying the approach to hematopoietic development in the mouse embryo, we map the progression of mesoderm toward blood using single-cell gene expression analysis of 3,934 cells with blood-forming potential captured at four time points between E7.0 and E8.5. Transitions between individual cellular states are then used as input to develop a single-cell network synthesis toolkit to generate a computationally executable transcriptional regulatory network model of blood development. Several model predictions concerning the roles of Sox and Hox factors are validated experimentally. Our results demonstrate that single-cell analysis of a developing organ coupled with computational approaches can reveal the transcriptional programs that underpin organogenesis.

Single Cell Expression Profiling Resolves the Transcriptional Programs of Early Mesoderm Diversification

Project description:We analyzed 1,205 cells from the epiblast and nascent mesoderm of gastrulating mouse embryos by single cell RNA-seq, representing the first transcriptome-wide in vivo view of mammalian gastrulation. Based on the distribution of key marker genes and their spatiotemporal expression patterns within the embryo, we identified 10 cell clusters corresponding to the epiblast and developing mesodermal populations. This enabled us to explore the global gene expression dynamics associated with the induction of Brachyury, anterior-posterior patterning of the primitive streak and the earliest stages of blood development.

Lineage recording in human cerebral organoids (whole organoids)

Project description:Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived organoid systems provide models to study human organ development. Single-cell transcriptome sequencing enables highly-resolved descriptions of cell state heterogeneity within these systems and computational methods can reconstruct developmental trajectories. However, new approaches are needed to directly measure lineage relationships in these systems. Here we establish an inducible dual channel lineage recorder, iTracer, that couples reporter barcodes, inducible CRISPR/Cas9 scarring, and single-cell transcriptomics to analyze state and lineage relationships in iPSC-derived systems. This data set include the iTracer data of 12 cerebral organoids.

Single-cell RNA-seq of wild-type and Pbx1/Pbx2 double-knockout EpiSCs differentiated in vitro to pre-somitic mesoderm in the first 48 hours of differentiation.

Project description:In vertebrates, body axis elongation is fuelled by bipotent neuromesodermal progenitors (NMPs), which support the development of both spinal cord and paraxial mesoderm (PM). HOX transcription factors have been historically implicated in axial elongation, with their sequential activation playing a fundamental role in timing PM development. PBX1 and PBX2 are obligate anterior HOX cofactors, and therefore they represent prominent candidates for controlling the distinct response to individual HOX factors. To pinpoint the role of PBX proteins in the development of pre-somitic mesoderm (PSM), wild-type (WT) and Pbx1/Pbx2 double-mutant (Pbx1/2-DKO) EpiSCs were differentiated in vitro to PSM. Single cells from different time-points (WT: EpiSCs, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 36 hours, 48 hours; Pbx1/2-DKO: 24 hours, 36 hours, 48 hours) were FACS-sorted into 384-well capture plates, and single-cell RNA-sequencing was performed using MARS-seq (Jaitin D.A. et al., Science, 343, 776-779 (2014)). Two wells were left empty in each plate, as a no-cell control during data analysis.

Single-cell RNA-seq reveals sequential trophoblast transition during human embryo implantation

Project description:We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of human post-implantation trophoblast cells. A hierarchical model was established, which was characterized by the sequential and stepwise development of two primitive cytotrophoblast cell (pCTB) subtypes after the trophectoderm (TE), two primitive syncytiotrophoblast (pSTB) subtypes, and migrative trophoblast cells (MTB). Further analysis characterized a new subtype of fusion-competent cells, which not only prepare for fusion to form primitive syncytiotrophoblast but also possess migration ability, which could be dual-function cells during implantation. Our work allows for reconstruction of sequential trophoblast cell transcriptional programs transition during implantation and provides a valuable resource to study pathologies in early pregnancy, such as recurrent implantation failure.

RNA-seq of wild-type and PGR (progesterone receptor) knockout pluripotent mouse EpiSCs (epiblast stem cells) and differentiated samples derived from these cell lines (primitive streak and mesoderm)

Project description:EpiSCs (epiblast stem cells) are murine pluripotent stem cells derived from the epiblast of a post-implantation embryo. These cells are primed to differentiate towards embryonic germ layers and are a useful model to study these early developmental events. PGR (progesterone receptor) is a nuclear receptor described mainly in the context of fertility and breast cancer. We noticed that it is also a TF that is expressed in primed EpiSCs, but not in naive mESCs and is further upregulated during mesoderm specification. We hypothesized that it is involved in differentiation to primitive streak and mesoderm progenitors. To test this hypothesis we generated EpiSCs with a genetic knockout of PGR using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated knock-in of an antibiotic resistance cassette. Differentiation of the wild-type and knockout cells and comparison of the different cell types allowed us to conclude that PGR is important for acquiring extraembryonic mesoderm fate and modulates cardiac differentiation, specifically it ensures that correct pools of FHF (first heart field) and SHF (second heart field) are being produced. Our study sheds light on previously unappreciated role of PGR in early embryonic development.
