Single-cell gene expression profiles of hESC-derived retinal organoid progenitor cells and photoreceptor precursors from deep full-length scRNA-seq.

ABSTRACT: Human retinal organoids have been invaluable in vitro models of retinal development and disease. To investigate whether cell states and gene expression changes observed in human fetal cone development are accurately replicated in organoids, we produced H9 hESC-derived retinal organoids using two published methods (Kuwahara et al. 2015, Nat Comm 6, 6286, https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms7286; Zhong et al. 2014, Nat Comm 5, 4047, https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms5047). We then FACS-enriched cone and rod precursors and retinal progenitor cells every two weeks from 55-140 DIC, as well as at 225 DIC, and performed deep, full-length scRNA-seq chemistry. These data were used to identify maturation differences related to the organoid production method, identify aberrant cell populations or gene expression timing relative to human fetal retina, and define cone and rod photoreceptor trajectories in the retinal organoid setting.
