Project description:We used spatially resolved transcriptomics to define the cellular diversity within a sonic hedgehog (SHH) patient-derived model of Medulloblastoma (MB) and identify how cells specific to a transcriptional state or spatial location are pivotal in responses to treatment with the CDK4/6 inhibitor, Palbociclib. Our analysis reveals that SHH tumour in the mouse brain contains multiple malignant transcriptional states, recapitulating the extent of intratumoural cellular diversity identified in primary human SHH MB. Our study offers new insight into the previously described features of CDK4/6 inhibition in MB, with Palbociclib treatment inducing neuronal differentiation across all remaining cell types comprising the bulk of the SHH patient-derived orthotropic xenograft model. This study is, to the best of our knowledge, the first spatially resolved gene expression atlas of SHH PDOX MB and acts as proof-of-principle for the use of ST-seq in identifying spatially-organised tumour heterogeneity of MB.

Project description:Using Multiome and previously published sc/snRNA-seq data, we studied eight anatomical regions of the human heart including left and right ventricular free walls (LV and RV), left and right atria (LA and RA), left ventricular apex (AX), interventricular septum (SP), sino-atrial node (SAN) and atrioventricular node (AVN). For the first time, we profile the cells of the human cardiac conduction system, revealing their distinctive repertoire of ion channels, G-protein coupled receptors and cell-cell interactions. We map the identified cells to spatial transcriptomic data to discover cellular niches within the eight regions of the heart.

Project description:Visium (10x Genomics) spatially resolved transcriptomics data generated from normal and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) lung parenchyma tissues collected from human donors. The fresh-frozen tissues that were analyzed were from four healthy control (HC) subjects and from four IPF patients. For each IPF patient, three different tissues were selected representing areas of mild (“B1”), moderate (“B2\") or severe (“B3”) fibrosis within the same donor, as determined by histological inspection of Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E)-stained samples. Data from a total of 25 tissue sections, from 16 unique lung tissue blocks. The lung tissues were collected post-mortem (HC donors) or during lung transplant/resection (IPF patients) after obtaining informed consent. The study protocols were approved by the local human research ethics committee (HC: Lund, permit number Dnr 2016/317; IPF: Gothenburg, permit number 1026-15) and the samples are anonymized and cannot/should not be traced back to individual donors.

Project description:B cell-interacting reticular cells (BRC) form transcriptionally and topologically stable immune-interacting microenvironments that direct efficient humoral immunity. While several immune niche factors have been elucidated, the cues sustaining BRC function and topology across activation states remain unclear. Here, we employed spatial transcriptome analysis of murine ingunal and mesenteric lymph nodes to examine co-localization of distinct BRC subsets and immune cells complementing BRC-immune cell interaction analysis. Spatial analysis supported predicted feedforward BRC-immune cell circuits that sustain topologically-organized, functional niches across inflammatory states, lymphoid organs and species.

Project description:We developed cell2location, a principled and versatile Bayesian model that is designed to resolve fine-grained cell types in spatial transcriptomic data and create comprehensive cellular maps of diverse tissues. To validate cell2location in real tissue, we applied the model to data from the mouse brain, which features diverse neural cell types organised in a well characterised spatial architecture across brain areas, thus presenting a canonical use case to test spatial genomics. We generated matched single nucleus (sn, this submission) and Visium spatial RNA-seq (10X Genomics) profiles of adjacent mouse brain sections that contain multiple regions from the telencephalon and diencephalon. To assess the biological and intra-organ technical variation in spatial mapping, we assayed two mouse brains and serial tissue sections from each brain (total of 3 and 2 matched sections from two animals, respectively, and an extra section for snRNA-seq), creating a rich multi-modal and replicated transcriptomic dataset. Tissue processing. Brains of wild-type adult C57BL/6 mice (postnatal day 56, 1 female and 1 male) were dissected, snap frozen, embedded in optimal cutting temperature compound (Tissue-Tek) and stored at -80oC. Brain hemispheres were cryosectioned at -20oC using a cryostat (Leica, CM3050S). To assess tissue quality, RNA was extracted from test tissue sections using the RNeasy Pico Kit (Qiagen) and yielded high RIN values (9.6 and 9.7) on an Agilent Bioanalyser, indicating high RNA quality. For matched single nuclei and Visium RNA-seq experiments, brain hemispheres were cryosectioned to adjacent thick (200 µm) and thin (10 µm) coronal sections, respectively, and processed the same day. In total, four consecutive sets of thick and thin tissue sections were collected from each brain. Five sets of tissue sections yielded both good quality single nuclei and Visium data (three adjacent sections from mouse 1 and two sections from mouse 2) while one additional section from mouse 2 yielded good single nuclei; these were considered for analysis in this study. Visium spatial transcriptomics. Thin (10 µm) mouse brain sections were cryosectioned and mounted directly onto separate capture areas on 10X Visium Spatial Gene Expression slides (beta product version). Processing was done per manufacturer’s protocols. Briefly, sections were methanol-fixed, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained, and imaged on a NanoZoomer 2.0 slide scanner (Hamamatsu). Sections were then permeabilized and further processed to obtain cDNA libraries that were quality controlled using the Agilent Bioanalyser. The cDNA libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 system, aiming at 300 million raw reads per section with read lengths 28cy R1, 8cy i7 index, 0cy i5 index, 91cy read 2. 10X Visium spatial sequencing data was aligned to mouse pre-mRNA genome reference version mm10 using 10X SpaceRanger and mRNA count matrices were generated by adding intronic and exonic reads for each gene in each location. The paired histology H&E images were processed using 10X SpaceRanger to select locations covered by tissue by aligning pre-recorded spot locations with fiducial border spots in the histology image. This allows evaluating the correspondence between cell maps produced using our method and the known brain anatomy. This also allows identifying the number of nuclei in each spot using nuclear segmentation as described in Suppl. Methods and reported in Fig S8A-D. The histology image was used to manually annotate cortical layers in the primary somatosensory cortex (SSp) region using the lasso tool in the 10X Loupe browser.

Project description:Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI IMS) allows for highly multiplexed, unlabeled mapping of analytes from tissue sections. However, further work is needed to improve sensitivity and depth of coverage for protein and peptide IMS. Laser-based post-ionization MALDI-2 has been shown to increase sensitivity for several molecular classes but has not yet been reported for peptides. We demonstrate signal enhancement of proteolytic peptides from thin tissue sections of human kidney by conventional MALDI (termed MALDI-1), and conventional MALDI augmented using a second ionizing laser (termed MALDI-2). Proteins were digested in situ using trypsin prior to IMS analysis. For tentative identification of peptides and proteins, a tissue homogenate from the same tissue analyzed by IMS was analyzed by LC-MS/MS. These proteins were digested in silico to generate a database of theoretical peptides to then match to MALDI IMS datasets. Peptides were tentatively identified by matching the MALDI peak list to the database peptide list employing a 5 ppm error window. This resulted in 314 ± 45 (n=3) peptides and 1 112 ± 84 (n=3) peptides for MALDI-1 and MALDI-2, respectively. Protein identifications requiring two or more peptides per protein resulted in 55 ± 13 proteins identifications with MALDI-1 and 205 ± 10 with MALDI-2. These results demonstrate that MALDI-2 provides enhanced sensitivity for the spatial mapping of tryptic peptides and significantly increases the number of proteins identified in IMS experiments.

Project description:Single-cell RNAseq (scRNAseq) and paired VDJ analysis and spatial transcriptomics, we create the first comprehensive cell atlas of the healthy developing, paediatric and adult human gut, including 347,980 cells from up to 10 distinct anatomical sites. We use this data to trace the cellular composition of the gut throughout life, define novel cell markers and cell-cell interactions. We find four neuronal cell populations in the developing enteric nervous system, with expression patterns indicative of irritable bowel syndrome and Hirschsprung’s disease, and identify key cell players and communication networks initiating lymphoid structure formation in early human development.

Project description:Our understanding of how human skin cells differ according to body site and tumour formation is limited. To address this we have created a multi-scale spatial atlas of healthy skin and basal cell carcinoma (BCC), incorporating in vivo optical coherence tomography, single cell RNA sequencing, spatial global transcriptional profiling and in situ sequencing. Computational spatial deconvolution and projection revealed the localisation of distinct cell populations to specific tissue contexts. Although cell populations were conserved between healthy anatomical sites and in BCC, mesenchymal cell populations including fibroblasts and pericytes retain signatures of developmental origin. Spatial profiling and in silico lineage tracing support a hair follicle origin for BCC and demonstrate that cancer-associated fibroblasts are an expansion of a POSTN+ subpopulation associated with hair follicles in healthy skin. RGS5+ pericytes are also expanded in BCC suggesting a role in vascular remodelling during cancer neovascularization. Our findings suggest that the identity of mesenchymal cell populations is regulated by signals emanating from adjacent structures and that these signals are repurposed to promote the expansion of skin cancer stroma. The resource we have created is publicly available in an interactive format for the research community.
