Serum-based culture conditions provoke gene expression variability in mouse embryonic stem cells as revealed by single cell analysis

ABSTRACT: Variation in gene expression is an important feature of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the mechanisms responsible for global gene expression variation in ESCs are not fully understood. We performed single cell mRNA-seq analysis of mouse ESCs and uncovered significant heterogeneity in ESCs cultured in serum. Using novel computational approaches we define highly variable gene clusters; and reveal their distinct epigenetic characteristics. We show that bivalent genes are prone to expression variation. At the same time, we identify an ESC priming pathway that initiates the exit from the naÃ¯ve ESC state. Finally, we provide evidence that a large proportion of intracellular network variability is due to the extracellular culture environment. Serum free culture reduces cellular heterogeneity and transcriptome variation in ESCs. Single cell mRNA-seq analysis of ES cells cultured with serum

Deciphering the relationship between polycomb repression and stochastic gene expression from single-cell RNA-seq data

Project description:Polycomb repressive complexes are important histone modifiers, which silence gene expression, yet there exists a subset of polycomb-bound genes actively transcribed by RNA polymerase II. To investigate the switching between polycomb-repressed and active states, we sequence mRNA from OS25 mouse embryonic stem cells cultured in serum/LIF. To validate our finding that polycomb modulates stochastic gene expression and transcriptional bursting, we perform knockout experiments and we sequence mRNA from Ring1A knockout (untreated) and Ring1A/B double knockout cells with constitutive Ring1A knockout and tamoxifen-inducible conditional Ring1B knockout.

Distinct myeloid progenitor differentiation pathways uncovered through single cell RNA sequencing

Project description:Haematopoietic stem cells can differentiate into all blood cell types. In this process, cells become progressively restricted to a single cell type. The order in which differentiating cells loose lineage potential, and the prospective isolation of cells with a defined potential remains a long-standing question. We performed gene expression analysis of haematopoietic cells from Gata1-EGFP reporter mice, leading to a model for hematopoiesis where the initial lineage decision consists of a seperation of erythroid/megakaryocyte/mast cell/eosinophil potential from lymphopoietic/monocyte/neutrophil potential Find unbiased heterogeneity in the preGM hematopoietic progenitor population

Deconstructing the dynamic transcriptional program of pluripotent stem cells.

Project description:Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are capable of dynamic interconversion between distinct substates, but the regulatory circuits specifying these states and enabling transitions between them are not well understood. We set out to address this issue and map the landscape of gene expression variability in PSCs by single-cell expression profiling of PSCs under different chemical and genetic perturbations. We find that signaling factors and developmental regulators show highly variable expression in PSCs, with expression states for some variable genes heritable through multiple cell divisions. Expression variability and population heterogeneity can be influenced by perturbation of signaling pathways and chromatin regulators. Strikingly, either removal of mature miRNAs or pharmacologic blockage of external signaling pathways drives PSCs into a low-noise ground state characterized by a reconfigured pluripotency regulatory network, increased self-renewal efficiency, and a distinct chromatin state, an effect mediated by the action of opposing miRNA families on the c-myc / Lin28 / let-7 axis. These findings illuminate the causes of transcriptional heterogeneity in PSCs and their consequences for cellular decision-making.

Single-cell RNA-seq of motor neuron progenitors differentiated from mouse embryonic stem cell line HM1 by treatment with RA and SAG

Project description:To define the sequence of events that lead to the generation of somatic motor neurons (MNs), we took advantage of ESCs, which can be directed to differentiate into spinal neural progenitors (NPs) in vitro (Gouti et al. 2014). This method relies on the exposure of ESCs, cultured as a monolayer, to a brief pulse of Wnt signalling prior to neural induction. Subsequently, removal of Wnt signalling and exposure to retinoic acid (RA) results in the generation of NPs. Exposure of these NPs to Shh signalling agonist SAG induces the expression of genes expressed in the ventral spinal cord and the induction of MNs.

Single-cell RNA-seq Reveals Unique Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotypes in Culture

Project description:Background. Heterogeneity in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) has been classically defined with a small set of predefined markers. Single cell genomics provides a unique unbiased approach to evaluate VSMC phenotypes. Objectives. The goal of this study was to define the heterogeneity of primary murine VSMCs grown in culture. VSMCs grown in culture are routinely used as a model of VSMCs in the vessel wall. We wanted to better understand the assumptions of this model. RNA sequencing was performed on single aortic VSMCs from 3-4 month old male mice at passages 1 and 2 (P1 and P2). Single cell contractility measurements were performed using Traction Force microscopy.

Pseudo-temporal ordering of individual cells reveals regulators of differentiation

Project description:Single-cell expression profiling by RNA-Seq promises to exploit cell-to-cell variation in gene expression to reveal regulatory circuitry governing cell differentiation and other biological processes. Here, we describe Monocle, a novel unsupervised algorithm for ordering cells by progress through differentiation that dramatically increases temporal resolution of expression measurements. This reordering unmasks switch-like changes in expression of key regulatory factors, reveals sequentially organized waves of gene regulation, and exposes regulators of cell differentiation. A functional screen confirms that a number of these regulators dramatically alter the efficiency of myoblast differentiation, demonstrating that single-cell expression analysis with Monocle can uncover new regulators even in well-studied systems. We selected primary human myoblasts as a model system of cell differentiation to investigate whether ordering cells by progress revealed new regulators of the process. We sequenced RNA-Seq libraries from each of several hundred cells taken over a time-course of serum-induced differentiation. Please note that this dataset is a single-cell RNA-Seq data set, and each cell comes from a capture plate. Thus, each well of the plate was scored and flagged with several QC criteria prior to library construction, which are provided as sample characteristics; CONTROL indicates that this library is a off-chip tube control library constructed from RNA of approximately 250 cells and 'DEBRIS' indicates that the well contained visible debris (and may or may not include a cell). Libraries marked DEBRIS thus cannot be confirmed to come from a single cell.

Project description:We were interested in investigating the heterogeneity of CD4+ Th2 cells during infection response. In order to do so we injected Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (Nb) in recipient mice as this is known to elicit a Type 2 response. Mice were subcutaneously injected with Nb larvae and single CD4+ cells were isolated from mediastinal lymph nodes, mesenteric lymph nodes, and lungs 5 days after infection.
