Single Cell Transcriptional Sequencing of Epicardium-Derived Cells and Endothelial Cells During Cardiac Development

Project description:The goal of this study was to perform transcriptional profiling of single epicardium-derived cells during early cardiac development. Epicardium enriched Wilms Tumor Gene 1 (Wt1) genetic lineage tracing mouse line (Wt1CreERT2/+; R26mTmG) was utilized to collect fluorescently labeled epicardial cells at embryonic day (E) 12.5 and following epicardial-to-mesenchymal transition at E16.5. Additionally, single cell transcriptional profiling was performed in endothelial cells that were collected from Wt1CreERT2/+ mice and Wt1CreERT2/+;MRTF-A-/-;MRTF-Bflox/flox to generate myocardin-related transcription factor A and B gene deletions in the epicardium and evaluate the impact of deleting a mechanosensitive gene program on coronary vasculature development at E14.5. This transcriptional data provides a resource to determine relative mRNA changes in epicardium-derived cells and endothelial cells during significant stages of cardiac development.

scRNA-seq of E15.5 epicardium and epicardium-derived cells

Project description:The embryonic epicardium provides a source of multipotent progenitors for cardiac lineages, including pericytes, fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. However, it remains unclear if the epicardium comprises of heterogeneous progenitors or if epicardial cells are multipotent. Using scRNA-seq, we analysed the expression profile of epicardial and epicardial-derived cells at E15.5 and found no evidence of discrete epicardial sub-compartments. Our findings also support the notion that epicardial fate is specified after epithelial-mesenchymal transition, not pre-determined.

An injury-associated transient progenitor state in the epicardium mediates heart regeneration

Project description:Adult zebrafish regenerate heart muscle after severe cardiac damage without significant scarring. The epicardium, a mesothelial cell sheet covering the vetebrate heart, is activated by injury and supports muscle regeneration through paracrine effects and as a source of multipotent cells. The understudied cellular heterogeneity of the adult epicardium during heart regeneration has constrained the effort in mobilizing the epicardium for heart repair. To dissect epicardial cell states and the underlying mechanisms that lead to successful heart regeneration in zebrafish, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of isolated epicardial cells from the regenerating adult heart and revealed their dynamic cellular heterogeneity. We defined the epithelial and mesenchymal layers of the epicardium and identified a transiently activated epicardial progenitor cell (aEPC) subpopulation that expresses aldh1a2, ptx3a, col12a1b and marcksb. Upon heart amputation injury, aEPCs emerge from the existing epicardial cells, migrate to enclose the wound, and disappear as regeneration progresses. Genetic lineage tracing combined with modified RNA labelling confirmed an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process of aEPCs and their differentiations to pdgfrb+ mural cells and pdgfra+hapln1a+ mesenchymal fibroblast-like cells that support heart regeneration. Genetic ablation of aEPCs blocked wound closure of the injured ventricle, suppressed cardiomyocyte proliferation, and disrupted heart regeneration. Our findings define a transient progenitor state of the adult epicardium that is an indispensable driver of zebrafish heart regeneration and identified ptx3a as a regeneration-specific non-ontogenetic regulator of the epicardium.

comparison of primary epicardium explant derived CDCs and primary Epicardial cells

Project description:The analysis showed differences of transcriptomes between primary epicardium explant derived CDCs and primary Epicardial cells directly isolated from the heart epicardium.SB-431542 was an effective TGF-b pathway inhibitor that could obviously inhibit the epicardial cells Epithelial-mesenchymal transition. SB-432542 treatment could produce some epithelial clones in the CDCs,which showed epicardiac specific expression profile, compared with the CDCs.

Single-cell analysis of human fetal epicardium reveals its cellular composition and identifies CRIP1 as a modulator of EMT

Project description:Epicardial cells can undergo epithelium-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) upon which the epicardium-derived cells (EPDCs) migrate into the myocardium and deliver growth factors or differentiate into smooth muscle cells or fibroblasts. The cell fate of EPDCs has been proposed to be determined by the persistence of subpopulations found in the proepicardial organ, but findings regarding this epicardial heterogeneity have been inconsistent. In the human heart, the composition of the developing epicardium is largely unknown. Here we performed a direct analysis of the human fetal epicardium through single cell RNA sequencing to investigate its composition and to search for regulators of developmental processes

Nonmuscle myosin IIB regulates epicardial integrity and epicardium-derived mesenchymal cell maturation

Project description:Nonmuscle myosin IIB (NMIIB; heavy chain encoded by MYH10) is essential for cardiac myocyte cytokinesis. The role of NMIIB in other cardiac cells is not known. Here, we show that NMIIB is required in epicardial formation and functions to support myocardial proliferation and coronary vessel development. Ablation of NMIIB in epicardial cells results in disruption of epicardial integrity with a loss of E-cadherin at cell-cell junctions and a focal detachment of epicardial cells from the myocardium. NMIIB-knockout and blebbistatin-treated epicardial explants demonstrate impaired mesenchymal cell maturation during epicardial epithelial-mesenchymal transition. This is manifested by an impaired invasion of collagen gels by the epicardium-derived mesenchymal cells and the reorganization of the cytoskeletal structure. Although there is a marked decrease in the expression of mesenchymal genes, there is no change in Snail (also known as Snai1) or E-cadherin expression. Studies from epicardium-specific NMIIB-knockout mice confirm the importance of NMIIB for epicardial integrity and epicardial functions in promoting cardiac myocyte proliferation and coronary vessel formation during heart development. Our findings provide a novel mechanism linking epicardial formation and epicardial function to the activity of the cytoplasmic motor protein NMIIB.

Comparing a timecourse of hESC-epicardium differentiation with single-cell adult and foetal human epicardium as part of the study: A single-cell comparison of adult and foetal human epicardium defines the age-associated changes in epicardial activity

Project description:This study is associated with the GEO accession GSE216019. Abstract from article: Re-activating quiescent adult epicardium represents a potential therapeutic approach for human cardiac regeneration. However, the exact molecular differences between inactive adult and active foetal epicardium are not known. Here, we combined foetal and adult human hearts for the first time using single-cell and single-nuclei RNA sequencing, and compared epicardial cells from both stages. We found a migratory fibroblast-like epicardial population only in the foetal heart and foetal epicardium expressed angiogenic gene programs, while the adult epicardium was solely mesothelial and immune-responsive. Furthermore, we predicted that adult hearts may still receive foetal epicardial paracrine communication, including WNT-signalling with endocardium, reinforcing the validity of regenerative strategies that administer or reactivate epicardial cells in situ. Finally, we explained graft efficacy of our human embryonic stem-cell derived epicardium model, by noting its similarity to human foetal epicardium. Overall, our study defines epicardial programs of regenerative angiogenesis absent in adult hearts, contextualises animal studies, and defines epicardial endpoints required for effective human heart regeneration.

EPICARDIOID SINGLE-CELL GENOMICS UNCOVER PRINCIPLES OF HUMAN EPICARDIUM BIOLOGY IN HEART DEVELOPMENT AND DISEASE [scATAC-Seq]

Project description:Native human epicardial precursors are virtually inaccessible, as they appear in the embryo less than four weeks post-conception, at which point pregnancy may not yet be detected. Protocols have been established to generate epicardial cells and their progeny from human pluripotent stem cells in vitro. However, no current model is amenable to studying the many facets of human epicardial biology, notably epicardium formation, lineage heterogeneity, and functional crosstalk with other cardiac cell types during organ development and disease. Here, we generated human pluripotent stem cell-derived 3D heart organoids showing retinoic acid-dependent self-organization of the epicardium and myocardium, which we called epicardioids. Time course single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that epicardioids are formed through the specification of first heart field progenitors, a subset of which closely correspond to juxta-cardiac field (JCF) cells that have recently been identified in the embryonic mouse heart as novel common progenitors of myocardium and epicardium and have not yet been described and studied in humans. Analysis of chromatin accessibility by single-cell ATAC-seq additionally revealed key transcriptional programs guiding fate decisions along the epicardial lineage tree. Human epicardioids provide a unique model to gain fundamental insights into human epicardium biology and function during heart development, homeostasis, and disease.
