Single-Cell Sequencing Reveals Lineage-Specific Dynamic Genetic Regulation of Gene Expression During Human Cardiomyocyte Differentiation

ABSTRACT: The impact of genetic regulatory elements on gene expression can vary across cell states. During dynamic processes such as cellular differentiation, cells transition through multiple cell states, and may differentiate toward multiple terminal cell types. We collected time-series single-cell RNA-sequencing data from 19 human cell lines, capturing 7 time points along a 16-day differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells to cardiomyocytes. We used unsupervised clustering, marker gene expression patterns, and pseudotime inference methods to map individual cells to a position along one of two bifurcating differentiation trajectories that were inferred from the data. We then identified genetic effects on gene regulation with varying effects across these trajectories. We identified hundreds of dynamic eQTLs that change significantly across pseudotime, including many variants whose effects are specific to one of the two lineages. We then re-analyzed previously collected bulk data, and used cell state information to infer cell type interaction eQTLs in bulk, assigning previously identified dynamic eQTLs to one of the newly characterized cellular trajectories.

Dynamic genetic regulation of gene expression during cellular differentiation

Project description:The impact of genetic regulatory elements on gene expression can change during differentiation and across cell types and environments. We mapped expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) throughout differentiation to elucidate the dynamics of genetic effects and the associated cell type specific mechanisms. To do so, we generated high resolution time-series RNA-sequencing data, capturing differentiation from induced pluripotent stem cells to cardiomyocytes with 16 time points in 19 human cell lines. Genetic effects on gene regulation in these data show clear temporal structure. We identified hundreds of dynamic eQTLs that change significantly over time, with enrichment in enhancers of relevant cell types. We also found nonlinear dynamic eQTLs, which have effects only during intermediate stages of differentiation. These include a variant associated with body mass index, highlighting that transient genetic effects can contribute to disease.

Human embryoid bodies as a novel system for genomic studies of functionally diverse cell types

Project description:Embryoid bodies, 3D aggregates of spontaneously differentiating iPSCs, have the potential to be a useful model system for genomic studies of diverse cell types. We first collected single-cell RNA-sequencing data from embryoid bodies (EBs) generated from 3 Yoruba individuals (18858, 18511, and 19160) in 3 replicates. We classify functional heterogeneity in EB cells using unsupervised clustering, differential expression analysis, reference annotation, and topic modelling. We then inferred differentiation trajectories that recapitulate known developmental patterns of gene expression. We later collected Day 21 EBs from a single replicate of 5 additional Yoruba iPSC lines (18856, 18912, 19140,19159, and 19210) and use this data to demonstrate robustness of EB cell type composition across iPSC lines. Our results establish EBs as a powerful model system to facilitate discovery of QTLs for cell type composition, as well as eQTLs and dynamic eQTLs across a multitude of human cell types and developmental trajectories.

Longitudinal multi-omics identifies responses of megakaryocytes, erythroid cells and plasmablasts as hallmarks of severe COVID-19 trajectories [sequencing]

Project description:In order to characterise the temporal dynamics of host response during COVID-19, we performed a longitudinal multi-omics study using a two centre German cohort of 13 patients. Bulk RNA was extracted from peripheral blood sampled at up to 5 time points per patient. At each sample point, a patient’s disease trajectory, “pseudotime”, was categorised according to clinical parameters. Both, whole transcriptome and B cell receptor sequence analysis was used to determine signatures specific to different disease trajectories. We identified coexpression modules that were associated with specific patterns across different COVID-19 disease trajectories. One module identified was related to failing interferon I response at the peak of disease severity. A second module showed biphasic upregulation of transcripts associated with erythropoiesis. Bulk BCR identified expansion of IgA+ and IgG+ cells. In sum, this study demonstrated distinct gene expression dynamics upon SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Capturing human trophoblast development with naive pluripotent stem cells in vitro [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:We report global transcriptional alteration and transcriptional trajectories from naive human pluripotent stem cells-derived trphectoderm to cytotrophoblast. By graph-based cell identities of total samples on the Seurat platform, we identified 9 main clusters, and further revealed the pseudotime differentiation during trophectoderm-cytotrophoblast transition.

Single cell RNA sequencing of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia stem cell

Project description:Chronic myelomonocyticleukemia (CMML) is a clinically heterogeneous stem cell malignancy with overlapping features of myelodysplasiaand myeloproliferation. CMML is further subclassified according to percentage of leukemic blasts present in blood or bone marrow, reflecting its intrinsic tendency to progression towards acute myeloid leukemia. Over 90% of CMML patients carry founding mutations in epigenetic and/or splicing genes, which typically involve the primitive stem cell compartment. Thus, transcriptional dysregulation at the stem cell level is likely fundamental to disease onset and progression. However, the critical early hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) subpopulation has not been studied in CMML. We performed single cell RNA sequencing on>6,800 Lin-CD34+CD38-primitive HSPCs from seven CMML patients and three healthy controls. We found substantial inter-and intra-patient heterogeneity, with CMML stem cells displaying distinct transcriptional programs, differentiation potential and cellular signaling pathway priming. Pseudotime analyses revealed that CMML-1/CMML-2 HSPCs have distinct cellular trajectories, indicating that transformation events initiate early within the hematopoietic hierarchy and suggesting against a simple linear clonal evolution dynamic in acute leukemic transformation. We further identified several transcription factors uniquely active in distinct sample subsets. Together our findings provide novel insights into the CMML stem cell compartment, revealing an unexpected degree of transcriptional and subclonal heterogeneity and highlighting early mediators of disease initiation and transformation, of potential translational importance

Effects of genetic variation on gene expression revealed following hypoxic stress in cardiomyocytes [methylation]

Project description:The predominant outcome of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is myocardial infarction (MI), where cardiomyocytes are deprived of oxygen. To study inter-individual differences in cardiomyocytes’ response to hypoxia, we established an in vitro model of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes from 15 individuals. We characterized gene expression levels, chromatin accessibility, and methylation profiles in these cardiomyocytes in four culturing conditions that correspond to normoxia (10% O2), hypoxia (1% O2) and short or long-term re-oxygenation (back to 10% O2). In our population sample, 2,113 genes change their expression following hypoxia and short- or long-term re-oxygenation. Using available genotypes from all individuals, we identified 1,573 genes with a cis eQTL in at least one of the four culturing conditions. Taking into account the incomplete power to identify eQTLs in any given condition, we also identified 367 dynamic eQTLs, which are classified as eQTLs in at least one, but not in all conditions. A subset of dynamic eQTLs, which are detected only following hypoxia, have not been previously annotated as eQTLs even in much larger collections of heart tissues. We did not detect differences in DNA methylation, or chromatin accessibility as the cells transitioned between normoxia and hypoxia, but we observed a change in chromatin accessibility in 831 genomic regions upon re-oxygenation. Differentially accessible regions are enriched for features of active regulatory regions, SINE elements, and E2F4 transcription factor binding sites . Finally, we found that genes associated with dynamic eQTLs are also associated with complex traits and disease. Our data thus demonstrate how unique genetic effects on gene expression, which are likely relevant for disease, can be uncovered under conditions of stress.

Expression profiles of four hematopoietic cell types isolated from the bone marrow of BXD recombinant inbred mice.

Project description:Genetical genomics is a strategy for mapping gene expression variation to expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). We performed a genetical genomics experiment in four functionally distinct but developmentally closely related hematopoietic cell populations isolated from the BXD panel of recombinant inbred mouse strains. This analysis allowed us to analyze eQTL robustness/sensitivity across different cellular differentiation states. Although we identified a large number (365) of “static” eQTLs that were consistently active in all four cell types, we found a much larger number (1283) of “dynamic” eQTLs showing cell-type-dependence. Of these, 140, 45, 531, and 295 were preferentially active in stem, progenitor, erythroid and myeloid cells, respectively. A detailed investigation of those dynamic eQTLs showed that in many cases the eQTL specificity was associated with expression changes in the target gene. We found no evidence for target genes that were regulated by distinct eQTLs in different cell types, suggesting that large-scale changes within functional regulatory networks are uncommon. Our results demonstrate that heritable differences in gene expression are highly sensitive to the developmental stage of the cell population under study. Therefore, future genetical genomics studies should aim at studying multiple well-defined and highly-purified cell types in order to construct as comprehensive a picture of the changing functional regulatory relationships as possible.
