Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Analysis of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Neural Organoids

ABSTRACT: Human pluripotent stem cell-derived 3D neural organoids have been shown to recapitulate the major features and cytoarchitecture of early human brain development. We used three commercially available kits: STEMdiff™ Cerebral Organoid Kit, STEMdiff™ Dorsal Forebrain Organoid Differentiation Kit, and STEMdiff™ Ventral Forebrain Organoid Differentiation Kit. These neural organoids contain unique and diverse cell types which model the early brain and are patterned with developmental cues. Here, we sought to investigate the cellular diversity of these organoids using single-cell RNA sequencing.

Brain organoids reproducibly generate the cellular diversity of the human cerebral cortex

Project description:Stem cell-derived human brain organoids hold an unprecedented degree of promise as experimental models of the human brain. They are, however, plagued by poor reproducibility and high organoid-to-organoid variability. Here, we show that a human organoid model pre-patterned to form the dorsal forebrain and cultured for over six months can achieve reproducible generation of a rich diversity of cell types appropriate for the human cerebral cortex. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing of 166,242 cells isolated from 21 individual organoids, we find that 95% of the organoids generated a virtually indistinguishable compendium of cell types, through the same temporal trajectories, and with organoid-to-organoid variability that is comparable to that of individual endogenous brains. The data demonstrate that reproducible development of complex central nervous system (CNS) cellular diversity does not require the context of the embryo, and that establishment of terminal cell identity is a highly constrained process that can emerge from diverse stem cell origins and growth environments.

Generation of Brain Region-specific Organoids using a Miniaturized Spinning Bioreactor and Modelling ZIKV Exposure

Project description:Cerebral organoids, three-dimensional cultures that model organogenesis, provide a new platform to investigate human brain development. High cost, variability and tissue heterogeneity limit accessibility and broad applications of current organoid technologies. Here we developed a miniaturized spinning bioreactor (SpinΩ) to generate forebrain-specific organoids from human iPSCs. These organoids recapitulate key features of human cortical development, including progenitor zone organization, neurogenesis, gene expression, and importantly, a distinct human-specific outer radial glia cell layer. We have also developed protocols to generate midbrain and hypothalamic organoids. Finally, we employed this forebrain organoid platform to model Zika virus (ZIKV) exposure. Quantitative analyses revealed that preferential, productive ZIKA infection of cortical neural progenitors leads to increased cell death and reduced proliferation, resulting in decreased neuronal cell layer volume that resembles microcephaly. Together, our brain region-specific organoids and SpinΩ provide an accessible and versatile platform for modeling human brain development and diseases, and for compound testing.

Induction of inverted morphology in brain organoids by vertical-mixing bioreactors

Project description:Organoid technology provides an opportunity to generate brain-like structures by recapitulating developmental steps in the manner of self-organization. We examined the vertical-mixing effect on brain organoid structures using bioreactors and established inverted brain organoids. The organoids generated by vertical mixing showed neurons that migrated from the outer periphery to the inner core of organoids, in contrast to orbital mixing. To uncover the mechanisms of the inverted structure, we investigated the direction of primary cilia, a cellular mechanosensor. Primary cilia of neural progenitors by vertical mixing were aligned in a multidirectional manner, and those by orbital mixing in a bidirectional manner. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that neurons of inverted brain organoids presented a GABAergic character of the ventral forebrain.

RNA-sequencing reveals predominance of THRA splicing isoform 2 in developing human brain [untreated]

Project description:Thyroid Hormone Receptor α (THRα) is a nuclear hormone receptor for triiodothyronine (T3) that acts as a transcription factor. Depending on its splicing pattern, it may act either as a stimulator or inhibitor of gene transcription. The relative proportions of the THRα splicing isoforms (THRα1 versus THRα2) in different tissues are crucial for the outcome of transcription regulation. To date, the tissue-specific expression patterns of the two main isoforms in human cortical development have not been determined. To address this gap, we generated cortical brain organoids in vitro following the STEMdiff™ Cerebral Organoid Kit guidelines. We then generated the stranded bulk RNA-Seq dataset here presented. We employed a bioinformatics pipeline to ensure the quality of the dataset and to extract and quantify the read counts specific for our isoforms of interest. We observed a steady increase of THRα transcript in time and a strong predominance of THRα2 transcripts at all stages.

Conserved proteomic programs between human cerebral tissue and organoids implicate RUVBL2 in neurodevelopment and disease

Project description:Cerebral organoids have emerged as faithful humanoid avatars for modeling numerous advanced neurodevelopmental and pathological processes and additionally serve as a powerful discovery platform for less well-characterized neurobiological programs. Towards this later prospect, we leveraged mass spectrometry-based proteomics to molecularly profile precursor and more committed neural compartments of both human-derived organoids and mid-gestation fetal brain tissue to define overlapping protein-level programs. Interestingly, this included numerous precursor-enriched transcriptional regulatory proteins that were notably not found to be differentially expressed in previous transcriptomic datasets. Specifically, we show that the RuvB-like 2 (RUVBL2) AAA-type ATPase is preferentially expressed in the SOX2-positive compartment of organoids and chemical inactivation leads to precursor cell displacement and apoptosis within the more mature DCX-positive niche. To explore potential clinicopathological correlates of this disruption in organoid cytoarchitecture, we interrogated various clinical datasets, and identified de novo deletions, missense mutations and a novel recurring tandem duplication involving RUVBL2 in patients diagnosed with neurodevelopmental and autism spectrum disorders. Together, our study demonstrates how cell-type specific and phenotype-level profiling of cerebral organoids can help nominate and implicate previously unappreciated genes in neurodevelopment and disease.

Trans-omic Profiling Uncovers Molecular Controls of the Early Human Cerebral Organoid Formation

Project description:Defining molecular controls that orchestrate human brain development is essential for uncovering the complexity behind neurodevelopment and the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Due to the difficulties in accessing embryonic and fetal brain tissues, the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived three-dimensional neural organoids has made it possible to recapitulate this developmental process in vitro and provide a unique opportunity to investigate human brain development and disease. To elucidate the molecular programs that drive this highly dynamic process, here, we generate a comprehensive trans-omic map of the phosphoproteome, proteome, and transcriptome of the initial stages of pluripotency and neural differentiation towards the formation of cerebral organoids. Our integrative analysis uncovers key phospho-signalling events underlying neural lineage differentiation, and their convergence on transcriptional (co-)factors and chromatin remodellers that govern downstream gene regulatory networks (GRNs). Comparative analysis with developing human and mouse embryos using these GRNs demonstrates the fidelity of our early cerebral organoids in modelling embryonic brain development. Finally, we demonstrate biochemical modulation of the AKT signalling as a key molecular switch for controlling human cerebral organoid formation. Our data provides a comprehensive resource to gain insight into the molecular controls in human embryonic brain development and also provide a guide for future development of protocols for human cerebral organoid differentiation.

Silk scaffolding drives self-assembly of functional and mature human brain organoids [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are intrinsically able to self-organize into cerebral organoids that mimic features of developing human brain tissue. These three-dimensional (3D) structures provide a unique opportunity to generate cytoarchitecture and cell-cell interactions reminiscent of human brain complexity in a dish. However, current in vitro brain organoid methodologies often result in intra-organoid variability, limiting their use in recapitulating later developmental stages as well as in disease modeling and drug discovery. In addition, cell stress and hypoxia resulting from long-term culture lead to incomplete maturation and cell death within the inner core. Here, we used a recombinant silk microfiber network as a scaffold to drive human PSCs to self-arrange into engineered cerebral organoids. Silk scaffolding promoted neuroectoderm formation and reduced heterogeneity of cellular organization within individual organoids. Bulk and single cell transcriptomics confirmed that silk cerebral organoids display more homogeneous and functionally mature neuronal properties than organoids grown in the absence of silk fibers. Furthermore, oxygen sensing analysis showed that silk scaffolds create more favorable growth and differentiation conditions by facilitating the delivery of oxygen and nutrients. Silk-engineering platform appears to reduce intra-organoid variability and enhances functional maturation during spontaneous self-patterning in human brain organoid differentiation.
