Immune Transcriptome Study of Human Nucleated Erythroid Cells from Different Tissues by Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing

ABSTRACT: Purpose: studying of immunity-related genes in CD235a erythroid cell in order to validate previous findings on the subject using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and its benefits such as mRNA co-localization in a single cell and cell specific marker gating of populaions of interest. Methods: we extracted mononuclear cells from the fetal liver, the fetal thymus, the cord blood and the adult bone marrow, performed magnetic separation of CD235a (Erythroid) cells, marked magnetically separated cells with BD Sample Tags, loaded the cells on a BD Rhapsody cartridge, lysed the cells, performed reverse transcription, cDNA library preparation, QC of final cDNA libraries by BioAnalyzer 2000 and Qubit 4, pooled the final cDNA libraries, sequenced them on a Illumina NextSeq 550 sequencer. Then, we processed FASTQ R1 and R2 files using the BD Pipeline V1.9 and got final metrics in a mols_per_cell.tsv file. Results: in this work, we investigated other possible immunity-related functions on a single cell level using RNA sequencing of adult bone marrow, cord blood and fetal liver NECs and found that NECs from every studied origin expressed ARG1, CXCL5, CXCL8, DEFA3, DEFA4, IL1B, IL15, IL18, IGHE (secreted), LGALS3, LAGLS9, TGFB3 and VEGFA. Conclusions: our study allows to access new potential immunological roles of CD235a erythroid cells, both validated and discarded previous results regarding cytokine and chemokine gene expression in erythroid cells.

Project description:Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) offer an important model for investigating the human hematopoietic celldevelopment. Here, we used long serial analysis of gene expression and quantitative real-time PCR to characterize two subsets of primitive hematopoietic cells derived in vitro from hESCs. This revealed differences in their expression of genes associated with lymphoid and myeloid development, cellular biosynthetic processes, and cell cycle regulation. Further comparisons with analogous data for primitive hematopoietic cells isolated from first trimester human fetal liver and newborn cord blood showed a strong similarity between the transcriptomes of the most primitive hESC- and in vivo-derived populations, with the main differences involving genes that regulate HSC development, self-renewal and homing, chromatin remodeling, AP1 transcription complex genes, and non-coding RNAs. These data suggest that primitive hematopoietic cells are generated from hESCs in vitro by processes similar to those operative during human embryogenesis in vivo, although some differences were also detected. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are capable of indefinite self-renewal but can also be induced to undergo a stepwise process of differentiation into a spectrum of recognizable mature blood cell types. However, a clear understanding of the molecular mechanism by which the first hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) acquire their unique defining properties of self-renewal and repopulating potential is lacking. As a first step towards obtaining the information needed to close this gap, we have undertaken a comparative gene expression analysis of different highly purified primitive human hematopoietic subpopulations (erythroid-megakaryocytic progenitor enriched CD43+CD235a+CD41a+/- cells, mutiplepotent progenitor enriched lin-CD34+CD43+CD45-, and lin-CD34+CD43+CD45+ cells) generated either in vitro from hESCs or in vivo from fetal (human fetal liver lin-CD34+CD38- cells) or neonatal hematopoietic primitive cells (human cord blood lin-CD34+CD38- and lin-CD34+CD38+ cells). This involved preparing a long serial analysis of gene expression (LongSAGE) library from an extracts of each prospectively isolated subpopulation and then sequencing each library to a depth of 200,000 tags.

Project description:Background: It has been reported that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT signaling pathway regulates erythropoietin (EPO)-induced survival, proliferation, and maturation of early erythroid progenitors. Erythroid cell proliferation and survival has also been related to activation of the JAK-STAT pathway. The goal of this study was to observe the function of EPO activation of JAK-STAT and PI3K/AKT pathways in the development of erythroid progenitors from hematopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells, as well as to distinguish early EPO target genes in human erythroid progenitors during ontogeny. Methods: Hematopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells, isolated from fetal and adult hematopoietic tissues, were differentiated into erythroid progenitor cells. We have used microarray analysis to examine JAK-STAT and PI3K/AKT related genes, as well as broad gene expression modulation in these human erythroid progenitor cells. Results: In microarray studies, a total of 1755 genes were expressed in fetal liver, 3844 in cord blood, 1770 in adult bone marrow, and 1325 genes in peripheral blood-derived erythroid progenitor cells. The erythroid progenitor cells shared 1011 common genes. Using the Ingenuity Pathways Analysis software, we evaluated the network pathways of genes linked to hematological system development, cellular growth and proliferation. The KITLG, EPO, GATA1, PIM1 and STAT3 genes represent the major connection points in the hematological system development linked genes. Some JAK-STAT signaling pathway-linked genes were steadily upregulated throughout ontogeny (PIM1, SOCS, MYC, PTPN11), while others were downregulated (PTPN6, PIAS, SPRED2). In addition, some JAK-STAT pathway related genes have specific expression just at certain stages of ontogeny (STATs, GRB2, CREBB). Beside continuously upregulated (AKT1, PPP2CA, CHUK, NFKB1) and downregulated (FOXO1, PDPK1, PIK3CG) genes in the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, we also observed intermittently regulated gene expression (NFKBIA, YWHAH). Conclusions: This broad overview of gene expression in erythropoiesis revealed transcription factors with a prevalence at certain stages of ontogenesis. Finally, our results show that EPO-mediated proliferation and survival of erythroid progenitors occurs mainly through modulation of JAK-STAT pathway associated STATs, GRB2 and PIK3 genes, as well as AKT pathway- coupled NFKBIA and YWHAH genes. Adult peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from buffy coats of 3 healthy donors using Lymphocyte Separation Medium (BioWhittaker, Walkersville, MD). We washed mononuclear cells twice with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, Invitrogen Corporation, Carlsbad, CA), and CD34+ cells were purified by positive immunomagnetic selection using the MACS cell isolation system (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA). Fresh bone marrow CD34+ cells were collected (AllCells LLC, Berkeley, CA). Cord blood CD34+ cells (AllCells LLC) and fetal liver CD34+ cells (Cambrex Bio Science, Inc., Walkersville, MD) were collected and frozen. For analysis, CD34+ cells were resuspended in medium, which contained 30% FBS, 2 mmol/L glutamine, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 Âµg/ml streptomycin, 1% deionized BSA, 10 mmol/L beta-mercaptoethanol, 1 mmol/L dexamethasone, 33 Âµg/ml holo-transferrin, 10 ng/ml SCF, 1 ng/ml IL-3 and 1 ng/ml GM-CSF (Sigma, St. Louis, MO), and 1 U/ml human recombinant EPO (Amgen Inc, Thousand Oaks, CA) Erythroid progenitor cells differentiated from hematopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells of fetal liver, cord blood, bone marrow and peripheral blood origin Biological replicates: 2 fetal liver, 3 cord blood, 3 bone marrow, 3 peripheral blood origin
