Spatial and cell type transcriptional landscape of human cerebellar development.

ABSTRACT: The human neonatal cerebellum is one-fourth of its adult size yet contains the blueprint required to integrate environmental cues with developing motor, cognitive and emotional skills into adulthood. Although mature cerebellar neuroanatomy is well studied, understanding of its developmental origins is limited. In this study, we systematically mapped the molecular, cellular and spatial composition of human fetal cerebellum by combining laser capture microscopy and SPLiT-seq single-nucleus transcriptomics. We profiled functionally distinct regions and gene expression dynamics within cell types and across development. The resulting cell atlas demonstrates that the molecular organization of the cerebellar anlage recapitulates cytoarchitecturally distinct regions and developmentally transient cell types that are distinct from the mouse cerebellum. By mapping genes dominant for pediatric and adult neurological disorders onto our dataset, we identify relevant cell types underlying disease mechanisms. These data provide a resource for probing the cellular basis of human cerebellar development and disease.

High-resolution transcriptional landscape of xeno-free human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cerebellar organoids.

Project description:Current protocols for producing cerebellar neurons from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) often rely on animal co-culture and mostly exist as monolayers, limiting their capability to recapitulate the complex processes in the developing cerebellum. Here, we employed a robust method, without the need for mouse co-culture to generate three-dimensional cerebellar organoids from hPSCs that display hallmarks of in vivo cerebellar development. Single-cell profiling followed by comparison to human and mouse cerebellar atlases revealed the presence and maturity of transcriptionally distinct populations encompassing major cerebellar cell types. Encapsulation with Matrigel aimed to provide more physiologically-relevant conditions through recapitulation of basement-membrane signalling, influenced both growth dynamics and cellular composition of the organoids, altering developmentally relevant gene expression programmes. We identified enrichment of cerebellar disease genes in distinct cell populations in the hPSC-derived cerebellar organoids. These findings ascertain xeno-free human cerebellar organoids as a unique model to gain insight into cerebellar development and its associated disorders.

The Single-cell and spatial transcriptional landscape of human development

Project description:The understanding of human early embryo developoment is very import for us to resovle the mysteries of how human organs especially the brain works and how human disease come up.Therefor, we carried out single cell RNA-seq and spatial transcriptional RNA-seq of human early embryo and analysed gene expression dynamics during the embryo development.We found some import genes and pathways that may control the ongoing of development.These findings help us make a step in understanding how we human being grow from a simple embryo to a complex one.

Molecular and spatial design of human cerebellar development

Project description:Human cerebellar development is precisely orchestrated by molecular regulatory networks. Here, we combined single-cell transcriptomics, spatial transcriptomics and chromatin accessibility states to systematically depict an integrative temporal-spatial landscape of human fetal cerebellar development. The multiomic data reveal molecular networks, providing an informative regulatory map to show how and when cell fates are determined. Spatial transcriptomics illustrated the distinct molecular signatures of the progenitors, Purkinje cells and granule cells located in different regions of the developing cerebellar cortex. We identified RORB as a new marker of developing human Purkinje cells, which was not expressed in mice. In addition, the RL progenitors highly expressed the human-specific gene ARHGAP11B , and ARHGAP11B expression led to cerebellar cortex expansion and folding in mice. We finally mapped the genes and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of diseases related to cerebellar dysfunction onto cell types, indicating the cellular basis and possible pathogenesis mechanisms of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Cerebellar organoids model cell type-specific FOXP2 expression during human cerebellar development

Project description:Cerebellar organoids differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) contain key cerebellar cell types and are increasingly used to study cerebellar diseases. In this study, we demonstrate the potential of cerebellar organoids for studying features of early human cerebellar development. Forkhead box protein P2 (FOXP2) is a transcription factor associated with speech and language development that is highly expressed in the developing brain. However, little attention has been directed to the study of FOXP2 in the early developing cerebellum. Here we used CRISPR gene editing in human iPSCs to generate a fluorescent FOXP2-reporter line. By combining transcriptomic analysis of iPSC-derived cerebellar organoids with published cerebellar datasets, we describe the expression and identify potential downstream targets of FOXP2 in the early developing human cerebellum. Our results highlight expression of FOXP2 in early human Purkinje cells and cerebellar nuclei neurons, and the vulnerability of these cell populations to neurodevelopmental disorders. Our study demonstrates the power of cerebellar organoids to model early human developmental processes and disorders.

Transcriptional landscape of the human cell cycle.

Project description:Steady-state gene expression across the cell cycle has been studied extensively. However, transcriptional gene regulation and the dynamics of histone modification at different cell-cycle stages are largely unknown. By applying a combination of global nuclear run-on sequencing (GRO-seq), RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and histone-modification Chip sequencing (ChIP-seq), we depicted a comprehensive transcriptional landscape at the G0/G1, G1/S, and M phases of breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Importantly, GRO-seq and RNA-seq analysis identified different cell-cycle-regulated genes, suggesting a lag between transcription and steady-state expression during the cell cycle. Interestingly, we identified genes actively transcribed at early M phase that are longer in length and have low expression and are accompanied by a global increase in active histone 3 lysine 4 methylation (H3K4me2) and histone 3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) modifications. In addition, we identified 2,440 cell-cycle-regulated enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) that are strongly associated with differential active transcription but not with stable expression levels across the cell cycle. Motif analysis of dynamic eRNAs predicted Kruppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) as a key regulator of G1/S transition, and this identification was validated experimentally. Taken together, our combined analysis characterized the transcriptional and histone-modification profile of the human cell cycle and identified dynamic transcriptional signatures across the cell cycle.

A comprehensive single cell transcriptional landscape of human hematopoietic progenitors.

Project description:Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor cells (HSPCs) are endowed with the role of maintaining a diverse pool of blood cells throughout the human life. Despite recent efforts, the nature of the early cell fate decisions remains contentious. Using single-cell RNA-Seq, we show that existing approaches to stratify bone marrow CD34+ cells reveal a hierarchically-structured transcriptional landscape of hematopoietic differentiation. Still, this landscape misses important early fate decisions. We here provide a broader transcriptional profiling of bone marrow lineage negative hematopoietic progenitors that recovers a key missing branchpoint into basophils and expands our understanding of the underlying structure of early adult human haematopoiesis. We also show that this map has strong similarities in topology and gene expression to that found in mouse. Finally, we identify the sialomucin CD164, as a reliable marker for the earliest branches of HSPCs specification and we showed how its use can foster the design of alternative transplantation cell products.
