Project description:Rituximab (RTX) is widely used as a first-line therapeutic strategy in B cell-mediated autoimmune diseases. However, a large proportion of patients either do not respond to the treatment or relapse during B cell reconstitution. Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a prototypic B cell mediated autoimmune disease in which pathogenic antibodies directed against the platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb-IIIa (GPIIbIIIa) lead to platelet destruction by macrophages in the spleen. In ITP, RTX-mediated B-cell depletion leads to an immediate clinical response in 50% of patients but 80% of patients will subsequently relapse in the next following months. Patients failing to respond or relapsing after RTX treatment are splenectomized when alternative therapies are inefficient or unavailable. Therapeutic splenectomy, resulting in a durable platelet response in 60-70 % of ITP patients, offers a unique access to study the autoimmune response in the spleen. To understand the cellular basis of disease's relapse in secondary lymphoid organs in humans, memory B cells were sorted and analyzed by scRNAseq from the spleen of three different groups of splenectomized ITP patients: 1) Patients that achieved a complete response after a course of RTX and relapsed during B-cell reconstitution (hereafter referred to as “RTX relapse” patients), 2) patients with primary failure of RTX, i.e. who did not respond to treatment at the time of B-cell depletion (“RTX failure” patients), 3) patients with active ITP that were not treated with RTX (“ITP” patients). All were compared with sorted splenic memory B cells from organ donors with no immune disease who died from stroke or head trauma, hereafter referred to as healthy donors (“HD” patients). We also included in this analysis splenic memory B cells from children with sickle cell disease that underwent splenectomy and are known to have a high frequency of B cell activation secondary to classical childhood infections and vaccinations, reflected by an increased number of GC. Single-cell mRNA sequencing was performed according to an adapted version of the SORT-seq protocol (Muraro et al., 2016, Cell Systems 3, 385–394), with cDNA libraries generation, sequencing and reads alignment performed at Single Cell Discoveries (Utrecht, Netherlands).

Project description:Memory B cells represent one of the pillar of humoral protection and are found in the circulation and secondary lymphoid organs several decades after initial pathogen or vaccine encounter. The exact cellular and biological mechanisms allowing long-term survival of quiescent cells in such a fluctuating microenvironment remain poorly understood. Assessing the true longevity of human memory B cells against common pathogens is, in most settings, hindered by the possibility for any given individual to re-encounter them during his lifetime. Smallpox, officially declared eradicated in 1980 (Fenner WHO 1988), represents one notable exception. Alongside smallpox eradication, anti-smallpox vaccination, based on the live Vaccinia virus, was progressively discontinued during the 1970s. As such, any detectable anti-vaccinia memory B cell in an individual post 2010 would likely have been generated more than 40 years ago, without any re-stimulation with the immunizing antigen during that timeframe. Anti-vaccinia antibodies serum titers remain stable in human for more than 80 years after first vaccination (Amanna NEJM 2007, PMID: 17989383), with several identified immunodominant epitopes including the envelope glycoprotein B5R (Lantto J Virol 2011, PMID: 21147924). Anti-vaccinia memory B cells have similarly been followed longitudinally in the blood for up to 65 years post vaccination (Amanna NEJM 2007, PMID: 17989383 ; Crotty JI 2003, PMID : 14607890) and, following a contraction phase taking place in the first couple of years after immunization, reach a remarkably stable plateau that last for decades at around 0.1% of total circulating IgG+ memory B cells. Functional analysis of such long-lived memory B cells, however, is still lacking. As a proxy to study long-lived memory B cells, IgG+ switched memory B cells specific for the immunodominant Vaccinia antigen B5R (B5R+ IgG+ memory B cells) were sorted and analyzed by scRNAseq from the spleen of six organ donors, collected between 2015 and 2018. For all donors, B5R+ IgG+ memory B cells were sorted alongside total IgG+ memory B cells (live IgD-CD27+IgG+CD20+CD3-CD14-CD16-) and naïve B cells (live IgD+CD27-CD38-CD24-CD20+CD3-CD14-CD16-). Single-cell mRNA sequencing was performed according to an adapted version of the SORT-seq protocol (Muraro et al., 2016, PMID: 27693023), with cDNA libraries generation, sequencing and reads alignment performed at Single Cell Discoveries (Utrecht, Netherlands).

Project description:Bufotoxin is an endogenous toxin made up of several physiologically active components that toads deploy as a defense against their natural enemies. Bufadienolides (BDS), which is isolated from bufotoxin, is an important anticancer drug, and other components such as bufotenine and alkaloids are also important drug resources. The distribution characteristics and biosynthesis of bufotoxins in the postauricular glands (PGs) of toads are not well understood. We examined the toad's PGs using the MADLI/MSI technique, a total of 1,872 components were found, and some pharmacological components were visible. These findings indicate that bufotoxins are primarily abundant in the plasma glands (pG) and epidermal tissues of the glands. By using single-cell sequencing, it was possible to create a single-cell atlas of 9316 PGs cells. These cells were then categorized into nine clusters using marker genes, and two types of epithelial cells were verified using in situ hybridization investigations. It was confirmed that cholesterol is a precursor component of BDS biosynthesis, we concentrated on the cholesterol metabolism component and postulated the primary bile acid pathway as a downstream biosynthesis pathway of BDS through transcriptomic studies of two pG and mucous glands (MG) with distinct secretory functions. Optimal and silenced genes for potential BDS synthesis pathways, toad toxin tryptamine and alkaloid biosynthesis, terpene skeleton and steroid hormones were identified by calculating the cellular coverage of genes. Our data demonstrate the metabolic mapping of bufotoxins in the PGs of the toad, and create the first single-cell atlas of PGs in the toad, providing a reference for the study of biosynthesis of natural active ingredients in animals.

Project description:To begin to understand how TFs regulate retinal cell type identity in human tissues, we established a pooled loss of function (LOF) experiment based on the CROP-seq protocol in developed retinal organoids. We targeted five TFs (OTX2, NRL, CRX, VSX2, and PAX6) that are important for retinal development and expressed dynamically over the organoid developmental time course.

Project description:In order to provide multi-omic resolution to human retinal organoid developmental dynamics, we performed scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq from the same cell suspension across a time course (6-46 weeks) of human retinal organoid development. This data set covers all the retinal organoid scRNA-seq data generated from IMR90 and409B2-iCas9 cell lines.

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-perturb data of one cerebral organoid with simultaneous TSC2 perturbation and lineage recording.
