In vivo single cell transcriptomics reveal K. pneumoniae skews lung macrophages to promote infection

ABSTRACT: The strategies deployed by antibiotic resistant bacteria to counteract host defences are poorly understood. Here, we elucidate a novel host-pathogen interaction resulting in skewing lung macrophage polarisation by the human pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae. We identify interstitial macrophages (IMs) as the main population of lung macrophages associated with Klebsiella. Single cell transcriptomics and trajectory analysis of cells reveal type I IFN and IL10 signalling, and macrophage polarization are characteristic of infected IMs, whereas Toll-like receptor (TLR) and Nod-like receptor signalling are features of infected alveolar macrophages. Klebsiella-induced macrophage polarization is a singular M2-type we termed M(Kp). To rewire macrophages, Klebsiella hijacks a TLR-type I IFN-IL10-STAT6 axis. Absence of STAT6 limits Klebsiella intracellular survival and facilitates the clearance of the pathogen in vivo. Glycolysis characterises M(Kp) metabolism, and inhibition of glycolysis results in clearance of intracellular Klebsiella. Capsule polysaccharide governs M(Kp). Klebsiella also skews human macrophage polarization towards M(Kp) in a type I IFN-IL10-STAT6-dependent manner. Klebsiella induction of M(Kp) represents a novel strategy to overcome host restriction, and identifies STAT6 as target to boost defences against Klebsiella.

Single-cell transcriptomics of suprachiasmatic nuclei reveal a Prokineticin-driven circadian network

Project description:Circadian rhythms in mammals are governed by the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), in which 20,000 clock cells are connected together into a powerful time-keeping network. In the absence of network-level cellular interactions, the SCN fails as a clock. The topology and specific roles of its distinct cell populations (nodes) that direct network functions are, however, not understood. To characterise its component cells and network structure, we conducted single-cell sequencing of SCN organotypic slices and identified eleven distinct neuronal sub-populations across circadian day and night. We defined neuropeptidergic signalling axes between these nodes, and built neuropeptide-specific network topologies. This revealed their temporal plasticity, being upregulated in circadian day. Through intersectional genetics and real-time imaging, we interrogated the contribution of the Prok2-ProkR2 neuropeptidergic axis to network-wide time-keeping. We showed that Prok2-ProkR2 signaling acts as a key regulator of SCN period and rhythmicity and contributes to defining the network-level properties that underpin robust circadian co-ordination. These results highlight the diverse and distinct contributions of neuropeptide-modulated communication of temporal information across the SCN.

Single-cell division tracing and transcriptomics reveal cell types and differentiation paths in the regenerating lung

Project description:Understanding the molecular and cellular processes involved in lung epithelial regeneration may fuel the development of therapeutic approaches for lung diseases. We combine mouse models allowing diphtheria toxin-mediated damage of specific epithelial cell types and parallel GFP-labeling of functionally dividing cells with single-cell transcriptomics to characterize the regeneration of the distal lung. We uncover cell types, including Krt13+ basal and Krt15+ club cells, detect an intermediate cell state between basal and goblet cells, reveal goblet cells as actively dividing progenitor cells, and provide evidence that adventitial fibroblasts act as supporting cells in epithelial regeneration. We also show that diphtheria toxin-expressing cells can persist in the lung, express specific inflammatory factors, and transcriptionally resemble a previously undescribed population in the lungs of COVID-19 patients. Our study provides a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the distal lung that characterizes early transcriptional and cellular responses to concise epithelial injury, encompassing proliferation, differentiation, and cell-to-cell interactions.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveal the dynamic of haematopoietic stem cell production in the aorta.

Project description:Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are generated from haemogenic endothelial (HE) cells via the formation of intra-aortic haematopoietic clusters (IAHCs) in vertebrate embryos. The molecular events controlling endothelial specification, endothelial-to-haematopoietic transition (EHT) and IAHC formation, as it occurs in vivo inside the aorta, are still poorly understood. To gain insight in these processes, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of non-HE cells, HE cells, cells undergoing EHT, IAHC cells, and whole IAHCs isolated from mouse embryo aortas. Our analysis identified the genes and transcription factor networks activated during the endothelial-to-haematopoietic switch and IAHC cell maturation toward an HSC fate. Our study provides an unprecedented complete resource to study in depth HSC generation in vivo. It will pave the way for improving HSC production in vitro to address the growing need for tailor-made HSCs to treat patients with blood-related disorders.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals immune response of intestinal cell types to viral infection.

Project description:Human intestinal epithelial cells form a primary barrier protecting us from pathogens, yet only limited knowledge is available about individual contribution of each cell type to mounting an immune response against infection. Here, we developed a framework combining single-cell RNA-Seq and highly multiplex RNA FISH and applied it to human intestinal organoids infected with human astrovirus, a model human enteric virus. We found that interferon controls the infection and that astrovirus infects all major cell types and lineages and induces expression of the cell proliferation marker MKI67. Intriguingly, each intestinal epithelial cell lineage exhibits a unique basal expression of interferon-stimulated genes and, upon astrovirus infection, undergoes an antiviral transcriptional reprogramming by upregulating distinct sets of interferon-stimulated genes. These findings suggest that in the human intestinal epithelium, each cell lineage plays a unique role in resolving virus infection. Our framework is applicable to other organoids and viruses, opening new avenues to unravel roles of individual cell types in viral pathogenesis.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveal the intratumoral landscape of infiltrated T-cell subpopulations in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Project description:Systematic analysis of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes is essential for the development of new cancer treatments and the prediction of clinical responses to immunotherapy. Immunomodulatory drugs are used for the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), depending on immune infiltration profiles of the tumor microenvironment. In this study, we isolated 11,866 single T cells from tumors and paired adjacent normal tissues of three patients with OSCC. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified 14 distinct T-cell subpopulations within the tumors and 5 T-cell subpopulations in the adjacent normal tissues and delineated their developmental trajectories. Exhausted CD8+ T cells and regulatory CD4+ T cells (CD4+ Tregs) were enriched in OSCC tumors, potentially linked to tumor immunosuppression. Programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4) were identified as marker genes in exhausted CD8+ T cells, whereas forkhead box P3 (FOXP3) and CTLA4 were identified as markers of CD4+ Tregs. Furthermore, our data revealed that thymocyte selection-associated high-mobility group box (TOX) may be a key regulator of T-cell dysfunction in the OSCC microenvironment. Overexpression of TOX upregulated expression of genes related to T-cell dysfunction. In vitro experiments demonstrated that cytotoxic activity and proliferation efficiency of CD8+ T cells overexpressing PD-1 or TOX were reduced. Notable, the transcription factor PRDM1 was found to transactivate TOX expression via a binding motif in the TOX promoter. Our findings provide valuable insight into the functional states and heterogeneity of T-cell populations in OSCC that could advance the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Single-Cell and Population Transcriptomics Reveal Pan-epithelial Remodeling in Type 2-High Asthma.

Project description:The type 2 cytokine-high asthma endotype (T2H) is characterized by IL-13-driven mucus obstruction of the airways. To further investigate this incompletely understood pathobiology, we characterize IL-13 effects on human airway epithelial cell cultures using single-cell RNA sequencing, finding that IL-13 generates a distinctive transcriptional state for each cell type. Specifically, we discover a mucus secretory program induced by IL-13 in all cell types which converts both mucus and defense secretory cells into a metaplastic state with emergent mucin production and secretion, while leading to ER stress and cell death in ciliated cells. The IL-13-remodeled epithelium secretes a pathologic, mucin-imbalanced, and innate immunity-depleted proteome that arrests mucociliary motion. Signatures of IL-13-induced cellular remodeling are mirrored by transcriptional signatures characteristic of the nasal airway epithelium within T2H versus T2-low asthmatic children. Our results reveal the epithelium-wide scope of T2H asthma and present candidate therapeutic targets for restoring normal epithelial function.
