Single cell sequencing of 43,168 cells during the differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells to cardiomyocytes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Differentiation into diverse cell lineages requires orchestration of gene regulatory networks guiding cell fate choices. Genetic factors acting through changes in transcriptional levels can contribute to cardiovascular disease risk by impacting early stages of development and have cell type-specific effects. We set out to characterize lineage trajectory progression of subpopulations and identify potential disease-related genes by examining their expression changes in single cells during early stages of cardiac lineage specification. Using 43,168 single-cell transcriptomes, we developed novel classification and trajectory analysis methods to dissect cellular composition and gene networks across five discrete time points underlying lineage derivation of mesoderm, definitive endoderm, vascular endothelium, cardiac precursors, and definitive cell types that comprise cardiomyocytes and a previously unrecognized cardiac outflow tract population.
