An unsupervised and broadly applicable method for physical cell interaction profiling of complex tissues

ABSTRACT: Cellular identity in complex multicellular organisms is controlled in part by the physical organization of cells. However, large-scale investigation of the cellular interactome has been technically challenging. Here we develop Cell Interaction by Multiplet sequencing (CIM-seq), an unsupervised and high-throughput method to analyze direct physical cell-cell interactions between every cell types presented in a tissue. CIM-seq is based on RNA sequencing of incompletely dissociated cells, followed by computational deconvolution into constituent cell types using machine learning. Contrary to previous deconvolution-based methods, CIM-seq estimates parameters such as number of cells and cell types in each multiplet directly from sequencing the data, making it compatible with high-throughput droplet-based methods. When applied to gut epithelium, or whole dissociated lung and spleen, CIM-seq correctly identifies known interactions, including those between different cell lineages and immune cells. In the colon, CIM-seq identifies a previously unrecognized goblet cell subtype expressing the wound-healing marker Plet1, which is directly adjacent to colonic stem cells. Our results from different tissue types demonstrate that CIM-seq is broadly applicable to profile cell type interactions in different tissue types using in an unsupervised manner.

Unsupervised cell interaction profiling based on multiplet RNA sequencing reveals major architectural differences between small intestinal and colonic epithelium.

Project description:Cellular identity in complex multicellular organisms is strictly maintained over the course of life. This control is achieved in part by the organ structure itself, such that neighboring cells influence each other’s identity. However, large-scale investigation of the cellular interactome has been technically challenging. Here, we develop CIM-seq, an unsupervised and high-throughput method to analyze direct physical cell interactions between every cell type in a given tissue. CIM-seq is based on RNA sequencing of incompletely dissociated cells, followed by computational deconvolution of these into their constituent cell types using particle swarm optimization. We use CIM-seq to define the cell interaction landscape of the mouse small intestinal and colonic epithelium uncovering both known and novel interactions. Specifically, we find that the general architecture of the stem cell niche is radically different between the two tissues. In small intestine, the stem-paneth cell interaction forms an exceptionally strong and exclusive niche, in which paneth cells provide Wnt ligands1. In colonic epithelium, no similar compartment exists to support stem cells, and Wnt signaling is provided by a mesenchymal cell layer. However, colonic stem cells are associated with a subset of goblet cells expressing the wound healing marker Plet1, suggesting an additional level of structural control in the colon. These results identify novel cellular interactions specific for the colonic stem cell niche and shed light on a previously unappreciated complexity of the tissue organization and biology of the colon. CIM-seq is broadly applicable to studies that aim to simultaneously investigate the constituent cell types and the global interaction profile in a specific tissue.

GMM-Demux: sample demultiplexing, multiplet detection, experiment planning and novel cell type verification in single cell sequencing.

Project description:Identifying and removing multiplets is essential to improving the scalability and the reliability of single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Multiplets create artificial cell types in the dataset. We propose a Gaussian-mixture-model-based multiplet identification method, GMM-Demux. GMM-Demux accurately identifies and removes multiplets through sample barcoding, including cell hashing and MULTI-seq. GMM-Demux uses a droplet formation model to authenticate putative cell types discovered from a scRNA-seq dataset. We generated two in-house cell hashing datasets and compared GMM-Demux against three state-of-the-art sample barcoding classifiers. We show that GMM-Demux is stable, highly accurate and recognized 9 multiplet-induced fake cell types in a PBMC dataset.

RNA-Seq of single cells from the mouse lumbar dorsal root ganglion

Project description:In order to establish a consensus catalog of dorsal rott ganglion cell types, we used comprehensive transcriptome analysis of single cells for unsupervised identification and molecular classification of sensory neurons independent of any a priori knowledge of sensory subtypes. RNA-Seq was performed on 799 dissociated single cells dissected from the mouse lumbar dorsal root ganglion distributed over a total of nine 96-well plates

Discovery of PDE7B as a novel effector of GBM growth by computational deconvolution of an in vitro physical coculture system

Project description:Cell-to-cell interactions between tumor cells and their microenvironment are critical determinants of tumor tissue biology and therapeutic responses. Interactions between glioblastoma (GBM) cells and endothelial cells (ECs) establish a purported stem cell niche. We hypothesized that genes that mediate these interactions would be important, particularly as therapeutic targets. Using a novel computational approach to deconvoluting expression data from mixed physical coculture of GBM cells and ECs, we identified upregulation of the cAMP specific phosphodiesterase PDE7B in GBM cells in response to ECs. We further found that elevated PDE7B expression occurs in most GBM cases and has a negative effect on survival. PDE7B overexpression resulted in the expansion of a stem-like cell subpopulation, increased tumor aggressiveness, and increased growth in an intracranial GBM model. This deconvolution algorithm provides a new tool for cancer biology, and these results identify PDE7B as a therapeutic target in GBM. 3 replicates from U87 monocultures, 3 replicates from HBMEC monocultures, 3 replicates from U87-HBMEC cocultures

Prediction of bacterial infection outcome using single cell RNA-seq analysis of human immune cells [WB/PBMCs bulk RNA-seq]

Project description:During host-pathogen encounters, the complex interactions between different immune cell-types can determine the outcome of infection. Advances in single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) allow to probe this complexity of immunity, and afforded the basis for deconvolution algorithms that infer cell-type compositions from bulk RNA-seq measurements. However, immune activation, an important aspect of immune surveillance, is not represented in current algorithms. Here, using scRNA-seq of human peripheral blood cells infected with Salmonella, we developed a novel deconvolution algorithm to infer dynamic immune states from bulk measurements. We applied our dynamic deconvolution algorithm both to cohorts of healthy individuals challenged ex vivo with Salmonella and to cohorts of tuberculosis patients during different stages of disease. We revealed cell-type specific immune responses associated not only with ex vivo infection phenotype but also with clinical disease stage. We propose that our approach provides a predictive power to identify risk for disease, and can be applied to comprehensively study human infection outcome.
