Primate gastrulation and early organogenesis at single-cell resolution

ABSTRACT: Our understanding of human early development is severely hampered by limited access to embryonic tissues. Due to their close evolutionary relationship with humans, non-human primates (NHPs) are often used as surrogates to understand human development but currently suffer from a lack of in vivo datasets, especially from gastrulation to early organogenesis during which the major embryonic cell types are dynamically specified. To fill this gap, we have collected six Carnegie stage (CS) 8-CS11 cynomolgus monkey embryos and performed in-depth transcriptome analyses of 56,636 single cells. Our analyses reveal transcriptomic features of major peri-gastrulation cell types, which help shed light on morphogenetic events including primitive streak (PS) development, somitogenesis, gut tube formation, neural tube patterning, and neural crest regionalization in primates. In addition, comparative analyses with mouse embryos and human embryoids uncover conserved and divergent features of peri-gastrulation development across species, e.g. species-specific dependency on Hippo signaling during presomitic mesoderm differentiation, and provide an initial assessment of relevant stem cell models of human early organogenesis. This comprehensive single-cell transcriptome atlas not only fills the knowledge gap in the NHP research field but also serves as an invaluable resource for understanding human embryogenesis and developmental disorders.

Recapitulating human peri-gastrulation development via self-organization of extended pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Stem cell models that replicate the gastrulation process in human embryos have been created, but they lack the essential extraembryonic cells needed for early embryonic development and patterning. Here, we introduce a robust and efficient method that prompts human extended pluripotent stem (EPS) cells to self-organize into embryo-like structures, called peri-gastruloids, which encompass both embryonic (epiblast) and extraembryonic (hypoblast) tissues. These peri-gastruloids simulate critical stages of human peri-gastrulation development, such as forming amniotic and yolk sac cavities, developing bilaminar and trilaminar embryonic discs, specifying primordial germ cells, initiating gastrulation, and early neurulation. Single-cell RNA sequencing unveiled transcriptomic characteristics of these human peri-gastruloids, which closely resemble the primary peri-gastrulation cell types found in human and non-human primates. Our results emphasize the remarkable self-organizing ability of EPS cells to generate advanced human embryo-like structures. This peri-gastruloid platform allows for further exploration beyond gastrulation and may potentially aid in the development of human fetal tissues for use in regenerative medicine.

Amniogenesis occurs in two independent waves in primate embryos

Project description:In primates the amnion emerges through cavitation of the epiblast during implantation, whereas in other species by folding of the ectoderm later around gastrulation. How the mechanisms of amniogenesis diversified in evolution remains unknown. Here we employed the naïve-to-primed transition of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC) to model peri-implantation epiblast development. We discovered that during this transition hPSC transiently gain the ability to differentiate into cavitating epithelium that transcriptionally matches the early amnion of human embryos. In contrast, primed hPSC produce cells resembling late amnion, uncovering an independent differentiation route. Unexpectedly, single-cell analysis of primate embryos revealed two transcriptionally distinct amniogenesis waves. The early wave occurs through a trophectoderm-like route and encompasses cavitation, whereas the late wave follows an ectoderm-like pathway during gastrulation. The discovery of two independent waves of amniogenesis both of which can be modelled in hPSC explains how amniogenesis through cavitation emerged during the evolution of primates.

THAP1 is a master regulator of zinc finger transcription factors guiding gastrulation of murine embryos [ChIP-seq_SH]

Project description:Gastrulation and early organogenesis are remarkable processes of early embryonic development. Our previous study showed that deletion of DYT6 gene product THAP1 leads to embryonic lethality at the stage of gastrulation and early organogenesis. However, the function of THAP1 in regulating gene expression, as well as its role in regulating embryo gastrulation and early organogenesis are not well characterized. In this study, we used different in vitro and in vivo models to characterize the function of THAP1 in regulating gene expression and in controlling embryonic development, which could help us to understand pathogenesis of THAP1-associated disorders and provide data to characterize the transcription regulation of gastrulation of murine embryo.

In vitro culture of cynomolgus monkey embryos beyond gastrulation

Project description:Gastrulation is a milestone event of embryonic development, during which germ layers are specified and reassigned into the body plan. Due to the inaccessibility in vivo at this stage and the ethical limitations, gastrulation currently remains a mystery in primates. Here, we report the establishment of an in vitro system to culture cynomolgus monkey embryos after up to 20 days to develop beyond the initiation of gastrulation. The histology, immunostaining and single cell sequencing results showed that the in vitro cultured embryos largely recapitulated the key events of early post-implantation development, and initiated gastrulation in primates. Considering the high similarities between monkeys and humans, this system will provide a unique platform for the investigations of human early post-implantation development at physiological, pathological and environmental conditions.

The proteomic landscape and temporal dynamics of mammalian gastruloid development

Project description:Gastrulation is the highly coordinated process by which the early embryo breaks symmetry, establishes germ layers and a body plan, and sets the stage for organogenesis. As early mammalian development is challenging to study in vivo, stem cell-derived models have emerged as powerful surrogates, e.g. human and mouse gastruloids. However, although single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) and high-resolution imaging have been extensively applied to characterize such in vitro embryo models, a paucity of measurements of protein dynamics and regulation leaves a major gap in our understanding. Here we sought to address this by applying quantitative proteomics to human and mouse gastruloids at four key stages of their differentiation (naïve ESCs, primed ESCs, early gastruloids, late gastruloids). To the resulting data, we perform network analysis to map the dynamics of expression of macromolecular protein complexes and biochemical pathways, including identifying cooperative proteins that associate with them. With matched RNA-seq and phosphosite data from these same stages, we investigate pathway-, stage- and species-specific aspects of translational and post-translational regulation, e.g. finding peri-gastrulation stages of human vs. mice to be discordant with respect to the mitochondrial transcriptome vs. proteome, and nominating novel kinase-substrate relationships based on phosphosite dynamics. Finally, we leverage correlated dynamics to identify conserved protein networks centered around congenital disease genes. Altogether, our study showcases the potential of intersecting proteomics and in vitro embryo models to advance our understanding of early mammalian development in ways that may not be possible through transcriptomics alone.

Timecourse single-cell RNA-seq of whole rabbit embryos sampled across gestational days 7, 8 and 9

Project description:We characterised the transcriptomic profiles of 146,133 individual cells (post-QC) from whole rabbit embryos spanning gestational days 7, 8 and 9. These experiments were performed to elucidate the molecular programmes underlying gastrulation and early organogenesis in a non-rodent mammal. Combined with existing datasets of early mouse development, our rabbit developmental atlas facilitates a broad cross-species approach to deciphering early human development. Cell libraries were prepared using the 10X Genomics Chromium platform.
