Iterative transcription factor screening enables rapid generation of microglia-like cells from human iPSC - TFiMGLs are responsive to disease-relevant stimuli

ABSTRACT: Differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into specialized cell types is essential for uncovering cell-type specific molecular mechanisms and interrogating cellular function. Transcription factor (TF) screens have enabled efficient production of a few cell types; however, engineering cell types that require complex TF combinations remains challenging. Here, we report an iterative, high-throughput single-cell TF screening method that enables identification of TF combinations for specialized cell differentiation, which we validated by differentiating human microglia-like cells. We found that the expression of six TFs, SPI1, CEBPA, FLI1, MEF2C, CEBPB, and IRF8, is sufficient to differentiate human iPSC into cells with transcriptional and functional similarity to primary human microglia within 4 days.

Direct Cell Conversion of Human Fibroblasts to Monocytic phagocytes by Forced Expression of Monocytic Regulatory Network Elements

Project description:Direct cell conversion is now expected to apply to therapeutic purposes. Although that has been succeeded in several cell types, the mechanism or general way to identify the key transcription factors are still unclear. In addition, most of the cases are not completely identical with the target cells. In previous work, we suggested that cell status is maintained by a homeostatic network of limited number of TFs and no single transcription factor is both necessary and sufficient to drive the differentiation process. Here, identifying the key TFs of human monocyte by combining comparative gene expression analysis and literature based text-mining, we mimicked the monocytic regulatory network in human dermal fibroblasts to induce direct cell conversion of the fibroblasts to monocytes. We suggested that although it is a primary master TF, single TF is not sufficient to induce the direct cell conversion and orchestrated TF regulation is necessary to complete the cell conversion. Total RNA obtained from human dermal fibroblasts(FIB), human CD14+ monocytes(MON), mock lentivirus vector transduced fibroblasts (FIB-mock), SPI1 transduced fibroblasts (FIB-SPI1), and SPI1, CEBPA, MNDA, IRF8 transduced fibroblasts(FIB-4Fs). The fold change was computed compared with fibroblasts or FIB-mock.

Iterative assay for transposase-accessible chromatin by sequencing to home in on functionally relevant neuronal subtypes

Project description:The Drosophila brain contains tens of thousands of distinct cell types. Numerous different transgenic lines reproducibly target specific neuron subsets, yet most still express in several distinct cell types. Furthermore, most lines were developed without a priori knowledge of where the transgenes would be expressed. To aid in the development of cell type-specific tools for neuronal identification and manipulation, we used an iterative assay for transposase-accessible chromatin by sequencing (ATAC-seq) approach. Open chromatin regions (OCRs) that were enriched in neurons compared to whole bodies drove transgene expression preferentially in subsets of neurons. A second round of ATAC-seq from these specific neuron subsets revealed additional enriched OCRs that further restricted transgene expression within the chosen neuron subset. This approach allows for continued refinement of transgene expression and can be used to identify neurons relevant for sleep behavior. Furthermore, this approach is widely applicable to other cell types and to other organisms.

Iterative deep learning-design of human enhancers exploits condensed sequence grammar to achieve cell type-specificity [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:An important and largely unsolved problem in synthetic biology is how to target gene expression to specific cell types. Here, we apply iterative deep learning to design synthetic enhancers with strong differential activity between two human cell lines. We initially train models on published datasets of enhancer activity and chromatin accessibility and use them to guide the design of synthetic enhancers that maximize predicted specificity. We experimentally validate these sequences, use the measurements to re-optimize the predictor, and design a second generation of enhancers with improved specificity. Our design methods embed relevant transcription factor binding site (TFBS) motifs with higher frequencies than comparable endogenous enhancers while using a more selective motif vocabulary, and we show that enhancer activity is correlated with transcription factor expression at the single cell level. Finally, we characterize causal features of top enhancers via perturbation experiments and show enhancers as short as 50bp can maintain specificity.
