Extended live-cell barcoding approach for multiplexed mass cytometry.

ABSTRACT: Sample barcoding is essential in mass cytometry analysis, since it can eliminate potential procedural variations, enhance throughput, and allow simultaneous sample processing and acquisition. Sample pooling after prior surface staining termed live-cell barcoding is more desirable than intracellular barcoding, where samples are pooled after fixation and permeabilization, since it does not depend on fixation-sensitive antigenic epitopes. In live-cell barcoding, the general approach uses two tags per sample out of a pool of antibodies paired with five palladium (Pd) isotopes in order to preserve appreciable signal-to-noise ratios and achieve higher yields after sample deconvolution. The number of samples that can be pooled in an experiment using live-cell barcoding is limited, due to weak signal intensities associated with Pd isotopes and the relatively low number of available tags. Here, we describe a novel barcoding technique utilizing 10 different tags, seven cadmium (Cd) tags and three Pd tags, with superior signal intensities that do not impinge on lanthanide detection, which enables enhanced pooling of samples with multiple experimental conditions and markedly enhances sample throughput.

Barcoding of live human peripheral blood mononuclear cells for multiplexed mass cytometry.

Project description:Mass cytometry is developing as a means of multiparametric single-cell analysis. In this study, we present an approach to barcoding separate live human PBMC samples for combined preparation and acquisition on a cytometry by time of flight instrument. Using six different anti-CD45 Ab conjugates labeled with Pd104, Pd106, Pd108, Pd110, In113, and In115, respectively, we barcoded up to 20 samples with unique combinations of exactly three different CD45 Ab tags. Cell events carrying more than or less than three different tags were excluded from analyses during Boolean data deconvolution, allowing for precise sample assignment and the electronic removal of cell aggregates. Data from barcoded samples matched data from corresponding individually stained and acquired samples, at cell event recoveries similar to individual sample analyses. The approach greatly reduced technical noise and minimizes unwanted cell doublet events in mass cytometry data, and it reduces wet work and Ab consumption. It also eliminates sample-to-sample carryover and the requirement of instrument cleaning between samples, thereby effectively reducing overall instrument runtime. Hence, CD45 barcoding facilitates accuracy of mass cytometric immunophenotyping studies, thus supporting biomarker discovery efforts, and it should be applicable to fluorescence flow cytometry as well.

Rapid monoisotopic cisplatin based barcoding for multiplexed mass cytometry.

Project description:Mass cytometry presents an exceptional opportunity to interrogate the biology of highly heterogeneous cell populations, owing to the ability to collect highly parametric proteomic data at a single cell level. However, sample-to-sample variability, due to antibody staining and/or instrument sensitivity, can introduce substantial artifacts into the data, which can in turn lead to erroneous conclusions. This variability can be eliminated by sample barcoding which enables samples to be pooled, stained and run simultaneously. Existing mass cytometry barcoding approaches require time intensive labeling, reduce the number of biologically meaningful parameters and/or rely on expensive reagents. We present an approach utilizing monoisotopic cisplatin to perform cell barcoding that does not require cell permeabilization, can be completed in 10?minutes and can be utilized in combination with existing barcoding techniques to greatly increase the number of samples which can be multiplexed to improve throughput and consistency.

A CD45-based barcoding approach to multiplex mass-cytometry (CyTOF).

Project description:CyTOF enables the study of the immune system with a complexity, depth, and multidimensionality never achieved before. However, the full potential of using CyTOF can be limited by scarce cell samples. Barcoding strategies developed based on direct labeling of cells using maleimido-monoamide-DOTA (m-DOTA) provide a very useful tool. However, using m-DOTA has some inherent problems, mainly associated with signal intensity. This may be a source of uncertainty when samples are multiplexed. As an alternative or complementary approach to m-DOTA, conjugating an antibody, specific for a membrane protein present on most immune cells, with different isotopes could address the issues of stability and signal intensity needed for effective barcoding. We chose for this purpose CD45, and designed experiments to address different types of cultures and the ability to detect extra- and intra-cellular targets. We show here that our approach provides an useful alternative to m-DOTA in terms of sensitivity, specificity, flexibility, and user-friendliness. Our manuscript provides details to effectively barcode immune cells, overcoming limitations in current technology and enabling the use of CyTOF with scarce samples (for instance precious clinical samples).

A Universal Live Cell Barcoding-Platform for Multiplexed Human Single Cell Analysis.

Project description:Single-cell barcoding enables the combined processing and acquisition of multiple individual samples as one. This maximizes assay efficiency and eliminates technical variability in both sample preparation and analysis. Remaining challenges are the barcoding of live, unprocessed cells to increase downstream assay performance combined with the flexibility of the approach towards a broad range of cell types. To that end, we developed a novel antibody-based platform that allows the robust barcoding of live human cells for mass cytometry (CyTOF). By targeting both the MHC class I complex (beta-2-microglobulin) and a broadly expressed sodium-potassium ATPase-subunit (CD298) with platinum-conjugated antibodies, human immune cells, stem cells as well as tumor cells could be multiplexed in the same single-cell assay. In addition, we present a novel palladium-based covalent viability reagent compatible with this barcoding strategy. Altogether, this platform enables mass cytometry-based, live-cell barcoding across a multitude of human sample types and provides a scheme for multiplexed barcoding of human single-cell assays in general.

Improved ClickTags enable live-cell barcoding for highly multiplexed single cell sequencing.

Project description:Click chemistry-enabled DNA barcoding of cells provides a universal strategy for sample multiplexing in single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq). However, current ClickTags are limited to fixed samples as they only label cells efficiently in methanol. Herein, we report the development of a new protocol for barcoding live cells with improved ClickTags. The optimized reactions barcoded live cells without perturbing their physiological states, which allowed sample multiplexing of live cells in scRNA-seq. The general applicability of this protocol is demonstrated in diversified types of samples, including murine and human primary samples. Up to 16 samples across these two species are successfully multiplexed and demultiplexed with high consistency. The wide applications of this method could help to increase throughput, reduce cost and remove the batch effect in scRNA-seq, which is especially valuable for studying clinical samples from a large cohort.

Multiplexed Imaging Mass Cytometry Analysis in Preclinical Models of Pancreatic Cancer.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers. PDAC is characterized by a complex tumor microenvironment (TME), that plays a pivotal role in disease progression and resistance to therapy. Investigating the spatial distribution and interaction of TME cells with the tumor is the basis for understanding the mechanisms underlying disease progression and represents a current challenge in PDAC research. Imaging mass cytometry (IMC) is the major multiplex imaging technology for the spatial analysis of tumor heterogeneity. However, there is a dearth of reports of multiplexed IMC panels for different preclinical mouse models, including pancreatic cancer. We addressed this gap by utilizing two preclinical models of PDAC: the genetically engineered, bearing KRAS-TP53 mutations in pancreatic cells, and the orthotopic, and developed a 28-marker panel for single-cell IMC analysis to assess the abundance, distribution and phenotypes of cells involved in PDAC progression and their reciprocal functional interactions. Herein, we provide an unprecedented definition of the distribution of TME cells in PDAC and compare the diversity between transplanted and genetic disease models. The results obtained represent an important and customizable tool for unraveling the complexities of PDAC and deciphering the mechanisms behind therapy resistance.

Multiplexed mass cytometry profiling of cellular states perturbed by small-molecule regulators.

Project description:Mass cytometry facilitates high-dimensional, quantitative analysis of the effects of bioactive molecules on human samples at single-cell resolution, but instruments process only one sample at a time. Here we describe mass-tag cellular barcoding (MCB), which increases mass cytometry throughput by using n metal ion tags to multiplex up to 2n samples. We used seven tags to multiplex an entire 96-well plate, and applied MCB to characterize human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) signaling dynamics and cell-to-cell communication, signaling variability between PBMCs from eight human donors, and the effects of 27 inhibitors on this system. For each inhibitor, we measured 14 phosphorylation sites in 14 PBMC types at 96 conditions, resulting in 18,816 quantified phosphorylation levels from each multiplexed sample. This high-dimensional, systems-level inquiry allowed analysis across cell-type and signaling space, reclassified inhibitors and revealed off-target effects. High-content, high-throughput screening with MCB should be useful for drug discovery, preclinical testing and mechanistic investigation of human disease.

Highly multiplexed 2-dimensional imaging mass cytometry analysis of HBV-infected liver.

Project description:Studies of human hepatitis B virus (HBV) immune pathogenesis are hampered by limited access to liver tissues and technologies for detailed analyses. Here, utilizing imaging mass cytometry (IMC) to simultaneously detect 30 immune, viral, and structural markers in liver biopsies from patients with hepatitis B e antigen+ (HBeAg+) chronic hepatitis B, we provide potentially novel comprehensive visualization, quantitation, and phenotypic characterizations of hepatic adaptive and innate immune subsets that correlated with hepatocellular injury, histological fibrosis, and age. We further show marked correlations between adaptive and innate immune cell frequencies and phenotype, highlighting complex immune interactions within the hepatic microenvironment with relevance to HBV pathogenesis.

Highly Multiplexed Mass Cytometry Identifies the Immunophenotype in the Skin of Dermatomyositis.

Project description:Dermatomyositis (DM) is a rare, systemic autoimmune disease that most frequently affects the skin, muscles, and lungs. The inflammatory infiltrate in the skin has not been fully characterized, and, in this study, we took a single-cell, unbiased approach using imaging mass cytometry. Substantial monocyte‒macrophage diversity was observed, with the CD14+ population correlating positively with Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index scores (P = 0.031). The T-cell compartment revealed CD4+ T, CD8+ T, and FOXP3+ T cells. Activated (CD69+) circulating memory T cells correlated positively with Cutaneous Dermatomyositis Disease Area and Severity Index scores (P = 0.0268). IFN-β protein was highly upregulated in the T-cell, macrophage, dendritic cell, and endothelial cell populations of DM skin. Myeloid dendritic cells expressed phosphorylated peroxisome proliferator‒activated receptor γ, phosphorylated IRF3, IL-4, and IL-31, and their quantity correlated with itch as measured in Skindex-29. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells colocalized with IFN-γ in addition to the known colocalization with IFN-β. Nuclear phosphorylated peroxisome proliferator‒activated receptor γ expression was found in the DM endothelium. Imaging mass cytometry allows us to characterize single cells in the immune cell population and identify upregulated cytokines and inflammatory pathways in DM. These findings have important implications for the development of future targeted therapies for DM.

Multiplexed Probing of Proteolytic Enzymes Using Mass Cytometry-Compatible Activity-Based Probes.

Project description:The subset of the proteome that contains enzymes in their catalytically active form can be interrogated by using probes targeted toward individual specific enzymes. A subset of such enzymes are proteases that are frequently studied with activity-based probes, small inhibitors equipped with a detectable tag, commonly a fluorophore. Due to the spectral overlap of these commonly used fluorophores, multiplex analysis becomes limited. To overcome this, we developed a series of protease-selective lanthanide-labeled probes compatible with mass cytometry giving us the ability to monitor the activity of multiple proteases in parallel. Using these probes, we were able to identify the distribution of four proteases with different active site geometries in three cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. This provides a framework for the use of mass cytometry for multiplexed enzyme activity detection.
