Project description:We leverage the extraordinary molecular diversity of modified heparan sulfate (HS) glycans 8 to establish cellular glycotypes, defined by binding patterns of a panel of flow-cytometry compatible single-chain variable fragment antibodies (scFvs) specific for differentially modified HS. We find distinct glycotypes between closely related hematopoietic progenitors and lineages. The glycotypes of murine and human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) reveal dynamic yet similar HS modification patterns in vivo and in vitro, including along megakaryocyte and erythrocyte differentiation. Prospective HS scFv-based sorting identifies new cellular subtypes from both immunophenotypic megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitors and heterogeneous pools of HSPCs, thus offering additional discriminative power beyond conventional CD markers. Mechanistically, single-cell RNAseq revealed that a heptad of HS-related genes participate in megakaryocyte-erythrocyte fate determination and are reflective of the HS epitope recognized by specific HS scFvs. In summary, HS glycotyping establishes a role for HS modification patterns in hematopoietic lineage differentiation in mouse and human, and provides an orthogonal approach to define and isolate viable cell types across different cell lineages and species at unprecedented resolution.

Project description:Single cell lineage analysis was used to assess clonal genetic heterogeneity and functional aspects of AML HSPCs derived at diagnosis and relapse. To address inherent limitations of single cell analysis, we developed a unique high-resolution technique capable of following single cell-derived subclones of different HSPC subpopulations during the AML course. Each of these subclones was evaluated for chemo-resistance, in-vivo leukemogenic potential in Nod Scid Gamma (NSG) mice, mutational profile, and the subclone cell of origin identified using retrospective cell lineage reconstruction.

Project description:Myelofibrosis is a severe myeloproliferative neoplasm characterised by increased numbers of abnormal bone marrow megakaryocytes that induce fibrosis, destroying the hematopoietic microenvironment. To determine the cellular and molecular basis for aberrant megakaryopoiesis in myelofibrosis, we performed single-cell transcriptome profiling of 135,929 CD34+Lineage- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), single-cell proteomics, genomics and functional assays. We identified a bias towards megakaryocyte differentiation apparent from early multipotent stem cells in myelofibrosis and associated aberrant molecular signatures. A sub-fraction of myelofibrosis megakaryocyte progenitors (MkP) were transcriptionally similar to healthy-donor MkP but the majority were disease-specific, with distinct populations expressing fibrosis- and proliferation-associated genes. Mutant-clone HSPCs showed increased expression of megakaryocyte-associated genes compared to wild-type HSPCs, and we provide early validation of G6B as a potential immunotherapy target. Our study paves the way for selective targeting of the myelofibrosis clone and illustrates the power of single-cell multi-omics to discover tumor-specific therapeutic targets and mediators of tissue fibrosis.

Project description:Current gene-expression databases for the haematopoietic system provide information on gene expression profiles present in bulk populations. Although informative, these studies lack the resolution that can be gained at a single-cell level. In particular, population-average data assumes homogeneity within the population and may as such obscure the ability to detect the heterogeneity of decision-making processes in individual cells. Here we report 1656 single cell transcriptomes analysed by single-cell RNA sequencing. Cells were FACS sorted on broad gates encompassing haematopoietic stem and progenitor populations (HSPCs), with index sorting data collected to permit retrospective identification of populations by surface marker expression. Our dataset thus represents the gene expression landscape of HSPCs at single-cell resolution, capturing the heterogeneity in and between cell populations. Pseudotime analysis visualized haematopoietic stem (HSC) to progenitor transitions, identified HSC as well as lineage-specific transcriptional programs, and also highlighted putative lineage branching points. To provide access to the wider scientific community, a user-friendly website was developed with intuitive search and display functionality.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy, associated with unfavorable patient outcome primarily due to disease relapse. Since specific early leukemic hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) are suggested to be responsible for AML propagation, the present study used single cell analysis (SCA) to detect and explore rare relapse-initiating HSPC clones, appearing already at diagnosis. To address inherent SCA limitations, we developed a unique high-resolution technique capable to follow single cell-derived subclones of heterogeneous HSPC subpopulations during AML evolution. Each of these subclones was evaluated for chemo-resistance, in-vivo leukemogenic potential, mutational profile, and the subclone cell of origin identified using reconstruction of phylogenetic trees. This study, employing combined functional and genomic analyses, unraveled the patient-specific HSPC subpopulations involved in chemo-resistance and determined, at time of diagnosis, the phenotype of the relapse-initiating clone, allowing early prediction of AML recurrence and suggesting novel precise therapeutic targets for relapse prevention.

Project description:Purpose and Methods: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), an autoimmune disorder, is mainly caused by megakaryocyte dysfunction, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we performed single-cell transcriptome profiling of bone marrow (BM) CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to determine defects in megakaryopoiesis in ITP. Results: Gene expression, cell-cell interactions, and transcriptional regulatory networks varied in HSPCs of ITP, particularly in natural killer/T cell progenitors and a pre-B cell subset, highlighting the selective immune aberratixon associated with defective megakaryopoiesis in ITP. CD9 can be used to enrich megakaryocyte-biased HSPCs, and CD9+Lin−CD34+CD45RA− HSPCs have the potential to be novel diagnostic and therapeutic targets in ITP. Further analysis revealed that megakaryocytic progenitors (MkP) can be divided into seven subclusters with different gene expression patterns and functions. The ITP-associated DEGs were MkP subtype-specific, with most DEGs concentrated in the subcluster possessing dual functions of immunomodulation and platelet generation. Conclusions: This study comprehensively dissects defective hematopoiesis and provides novel therapeutic targets for ITP.

Project description:Myelofibrosis is a severe myeloproliferative neoplasm characterised by increased numbers of abnormal bone marrow megakaryocytes that induce progressive fibrosis, destroying the hematopoietic microenvironment. To determine the cellular and molecular basis for aberrant megakaryopoiesis in myelofibrosis, we performed high-throughput single-cell transcriptome profiling of 50,702 hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), and single-cell proteomics, genomics and functional assays. We identified an aberrant pathway for direct megakaryocyte differentiation from the earliest stages of hematopoiesis in myelofibrosis and associated aberrant molecular signatures, including surface antigens selectively expressed by JAK2-mutant HSPCs. Myelofibrosis megakaryocyte progenitors were heterogeneous, with distinct expression of fibrosis and proliferation-associated genes and putative therapy targets. We validated the integrin G6B as a promising JAK2-mutant clone-specific surface antigen, warranting further development as an immunotherapeutic target. Our study paves the way for selective immunotherapeutic targeting in myelofibrosis and more broadly illustrates the power of single-cell multi-omics to discover tumor-specific therapeutic targets and mediators of tissue fibrosis.

Project description:T(8;21), which produces the AML1-ETO (AE) fusion oncoprotein, is one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities in AML patients. Despite its prevalence among patients, it has remained challenging to study the impact of AE on leukemia development in vivo due to limitations of the current t(8;21) mouse models. Here, we devised a germline transmitted transgenic Rosa26-AE9a knock-in mouse model that expresses AE9a protein, a truncated AE variant, at moderately elevated levels compared to endogenous RUNX1. These mice develop myeloid leukemia with longer latency and lower penetrance compared to mice using the AE9a retroviral transduction-transplantation model. Pre-leukemic mice exhibited myeloid progenitor skewing in their bone marrow, with more granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (GMP) at the expense of megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors (MEP). Importantly, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) of pre-leukemic mice had increased clonogenic potential. We performed single cell RNA-sequencing on pre-leukemic HSPCs and confirmed both this granulocytic bias and hindered differentiation. Overall, we have overcome the limitation of uncontrolled AE9a oncogene expression in the retroviral transduction-transplantation mouse model and have devised a new germline transmitted Rosa26 locus AE9a knock-in model that more faithfully represents t(8;21) human disease.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) rely upon cellular crosstalk, including extracellular vesicles (EVs) for lifelong niche occupancy and cellular function. Vesicle secretion is tightly linked to intracellular homeostasis; however, these mechanisms are poorly understood in HSPCs, particularly at the single-cell level. In this study, we target ceramide-dependent EV secretion by pharmacologic blockade in ex vivo expanded HSPCs. We use these cells to investigate single-cell resolution of short-term and delayed transcriptional changes induced by ceramide-EV inhibition.
