Generation and expansion of induced respiratory airway progenitors (iRAPs) from human pluripotent stem cells.

ABSTRACT: Several novel distal lung populations were recently identified that may be involved in regeneration after injury.1–3 As these are absent in rodents, a deeper understanding of their roles and lineage relations requires availability of equivalent cells in vitro. Here we report the generation of expandable, clonal spheres, called induced respiratory airway progenitors (iRAPs), from human pluripotent stem cells. iRAPs consist mainly of previously identified type 0 alveolar epithelial (AT0) cells, terminal respiratory bronchiole stem cells (TRB-SCs) and distal basal cells (BCs).3 Velocity analysis of single cell RNAseq data suggests that distal BCs are the most undifferentiated progenitors in the iRAPs and give rise to AT0 cells. iRAPs will be an important resource for studies in human lung regeneration, and potentially for regenerative approaches for human lung disease.

Generation of expandable multipotential distal lung progenitors from human pluripotent stem cells that model idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Human lungs contain unique cell populations in distal respiratory airways and terminal bronchioles (RA/TRB) that accumulate in patients with lung injury and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lethal lung disease. As these populations are absent in rodents, deeper understanding requires a human in vitro model. Here we convert human pluripotent stem cells into expandable spheres, called induced respiratory airway progenitors (iRAPs), consisting of ~99% RA/TRB-associated cell types. One hPSC can give rise to 1010 iRAP cells. We differentiate iRAPs through a stage consistent with transitional AT2 like cells into a population corresponding to mature AT1 cells with 95% purity. iRAPs with deletion of HPS1, which causes pulmonary fibrosis in humans, replicate the aberrant differentiation and recruitment of profibrotic fibroblasts observed in IPF, indicating that intrinsic dysfunction of RA/TRB-associated alveolar progenitors contributes to HPS1-related IPF. iRAPs may provide a system suitable for IPF drug discovery and validation.

Generation of expandable multipotential distal lung progenitors from human pluripotent stem cells that model idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [bulk RNA-Seq]

Project description:Human lungs contain distal respiratory airways (RAs) that are absent in rodents and contain unique cell populations that are more abundant in patients with lung injury and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). A deeper understanding of the potential of these cells requires an in vitro model. Here we report the generation from human pluripotent stem cells of expandable spheres (‘induced respiratory airway progenitors’ (iRAPs)) consisting of RA-associated cell types that could be differentiated into type 1 and type 2 alveolar epithelial cells in defined conditions and show defects that are hallmarks of IPF when mutant for HPS1, a gene associated with IPF in humans. These data indicate that alveolar epithelial cells can derive from distal airway progenitors and that their intrinsic dysfunction may be involved in aberrant, fibrotic repair in IPF. iRAPs thus provide a model to gain insight into human lung regeneration and into pathogenesis of IPF.

Airway-derived p63+ facultative progenitors contribute to alveolar regeneration after lung injury.

Project description:Lung injury activates potential stem cells or progenitors for alveolar repair and regeneration. However, the activation program and source of injury-induced facultative progenitors remain incompletely known. Here, we find that lung injury induces emergence of p63-expressing progenitors, which rapidly proliferate and differentiate into alveolar type-1 (AT1) and type-2 (AT2) cells. scRNA-seq analysis uncovers that a subset of p63+ progenitors exhibit two distinct parallele transient stages before differentiation into mature AT1 and AT2 cells, respectively. Dual recombinases-mediated sequential genetic tracing reveals that facultative p63+ progenitors originate from the distal airway secretory cells and subsequently regenerate alveoli. Functioanlly, secretory cell-specific knockout of p63 significantly impairs their contribution to alveolar epithelium during lung regeneration. Our study identified secretory cell-derived facultative p63+ progenitors that contribute to alveolar regeneration, indicating a potential therapeutic target for lung treatment after injuires.

Single cell transcriptome analysis of bleomycin injured distal adult murine lung airway epithelium

Project description:To comprehensively study the heterogeneity within distal airway epithelium, we performed single cell transcriptomic analysis of the naive lung samples. Our analysis reveals that distal lung airway epithelial cells are highly heterogenous. We employed supervised clustering to identify a rare group of cells with transcriptional similiarities to embryonic distal lung bud tip progenitors. This approach identified a quiescent progenitor population of airway cells that accounted for all in vitro regenerative activity. Furthermore, these cells were also required for in vivo transplantation, reconstitution of alveoli, and functional recovery of injured mice. These findings indicate that small subpopulations of specialized stem/progenitors are required for effective lung regeneration and could potentially be used as therapeutic adjuncts after major lung injury.

Single cell RNA Sequencing Identifies G-protein Coupled Receptor 87 as a Basal Cell Marker Expressed in Distal Honeycomb Cysts in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Project description:Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating and life-threatening lung disease characterized by epithelial reprogramming and increased extracellular matrix deposition leading to loss of lung function. A prominent histopathological structure in the IPF lung are aberrant bronchioles filled with mucus, referred to as honeycomb cysts. These heterogeneous bronchiolized areas feature clusters of simple epithelium with Keratin (KRT)5+ basal-like cells interspersed with pseudostratified epithelium containing differentiated, hyperplastic epithelial cells as well as aberrant ciliated cells. Recent single-cell RNA sequencing studies of the lung epithelium shed further light into cellular subtypes unique to IPF, including basaloid KRT5-/KRT17+ cells present in the distal lung. However, IPF distal bronchiole cell subtypes still remain poorly characterized and their disease contribution remains underinvestigated. Using single-cell RNA sequencing of enriched EpCAM+ lung cells of the distal IPF lung, we identified G-protein coupled receptor (GPR) 87, as a marker of distal bronchioles and KRT5+ IPF basal cells contributing to impaired airway differentiation and honeycombing.

Single-cell division tracing and transcriptomics reveal cell types and differentiation paths in the regenerating lung

Project description:Understanding the molecular and cellular processes involved in lung epithelial regeneration may fuel the development of therapeutic approaches for lung diseases. We combine mouse models allowing diphtheria toxin-mediated damage of specific epithelial cell types and parallel GFP-labeling of functionally dividing cells with single-cell transcriptomics to characterize the regeneration of the distal lung. We uncover cell types, including Krt13+ basal and Krt15+ club cells, detect an intermediate cell state between basal and goblet cells, reveal goblet cells as actively dividing progenitor cells, and provide evidence that adventitial fibroblasts act as supporting cells in epithelial regeneration. We also show that diphtheria toxin-expressing cells can persist in the lung, express specific inflammatory factors, and transcriptionally resemble a previously undescribed population in the lungs of COVID-19 patients. Our study provides a comprehensive single-cell atlas of the distal lung that characterizes early transcriptional and cellular responses to concise epithelial injury, encompassing proliferation, differentiation, and cell-to-cell interactions.

GRAMD2+ alveolar type I cell plasticity facilitates cell state transitions in organoid culture

Project description:Alveolar epithelial regeneration is critical for normal lung function and becomes dysregulated in disease. While alveolar type 2 (AT2) and club cells are known distal lung epithelial progenitors, determining if alveolar epithelial type 1 (AT1) cells also contribute to alveolar regeneration has been hampered by lack of highly specific mouse models labeling AT1 cells. To address this, the Gramd2CreERT2 transgenic strain was generated and crossed to ROSAmTmG mice. Extensive cellular characterization, including distal lung immunofluorescence and cytospin staining, confirmed that GRAMD2+ AT1 cells are highly enriched for green fluoresecent protein (GFP). Interestingly, Gramd2CreERT2 GFP+ cells were able to form colonies in organoid co-culture with Mlg fibroblasts. Temporal scRNAseq revealed that Gramd2+ AT1 cells transition through numerous intermediate lung epithelial cell states including basal, secretory and AT2 cell in organoids while acquiring proliferative capacity. Our results indicate that Gramd2+ AT1 cells are highly plastic suggesting they may contribute to alveolar regeneration.
