Project description:During early mouse embryonic development, pluripotent cells rapidly divide and diversify to construct the developing foetus, yet the underlying regulatory programs that define the cell repertoire for each organ remain ill-defined. To delineate comprehensive chromatin landscapes of mammalian lineages during early organogenesis, we mapped chromatin accessibility in 19,453 single nuclei from mouse embryos collected at 8.25 days post-fertilisation. Identification of cell type-specific regions of open chromatin pinpointed known regulatory regions and two new TAL1-bound endothelial enhancers, which we validated using transgenic mouse assays. Integrated gene expression and transcription factor motif enrichment analyses highlighted known and previously unrecognised cell type-specific transcriptional regulators. Subsequent in vivo experiments in zebrafish revealed a powerful role for the ETS transcription factor FEV in endothelial identity. Concerted in vivo validation experiments in mouse and zebrafish thus illustrate how single-cell open chromatin maps, representative of a mammalian embryo, provide access to the regulatory blueprint for mammalian organogenesis.

Project description:Recent surveys of mouse organogenesis cell atlas (MOCA) with single cell transcriptomics have uncovered hundreds of cell types, but the cell-type-specific transcriptional regulatory programs responsible for the unique identity and function of each cell type have yet to be elucidated. We applied a four-level combinatorial indexing assay, SPATAC-seq, to profile the chromatin accessibility in >350,000 cells derived from 13 embryos staged between embryonic day (E) 10.5 and 13.5 in a single experiment. The resulting map revealed the status of open chromatin for 844,817 candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) in 33 main cell types and 296 subtypes. By integrating this accessible chromatin atlas with scRNA data of MOCA, we characterized the gene regulatory sequences and transcription factors associated with cell fate commitment, such as unreported role of Nr5a2 and Gata6 in gastrointestinal tract. Finaly, we integrated this atlas with previous scATAC-seq data from mouse embryos at E8.25 and 13 adult mouse tissues to dissect life stage specific gene regulatory programs across different cell types. This rich resource and comprerhensive analysis provide a foundation for expolring gene regulators in mammalian cell differentiation.

Project description:Salivary glands develop as highly branched structures designed to produce and secrete saliva. Advances in mouse genetics, stem cell biology, and regenerative medicine are having a tremendous impact on our understanding of salivary gland organogenesis. Understanding how submandibular gland (SMG) initiation, branching morphogenesis, and cell differentiation occur, as well as defining the progenitor/stem cells and cell and tissue interactions that drive SMG development will help guide regenerative approaches for patients suffering from loss of salivary gland function. This review focuses on recent literature from the past 5 years investigating the regulatory mechanisms driving SMG organogenesis.

Project description:The abstract of the manuscript titled "Signalling pathways involved in adult heart formation revealed by gene expression profiling in Drosophila" is given below: "Drosophila provides a powerful system for defining the complex genetic programs that drive organogenesis. Under control of the steroid hormone ecdysone, the adult heart in Drosophila forms during metamorphosis by a remodelling of the larval cardiac organ. Here, we evaluated the extent to which transcriptional signatures revealed by genomic approaches can provide new insights into the molecular pathways that underlie heart organogenesis. Whole-genome expression profiling at 8 successive time-points covering adult heart formation revealed a highly dynamic temporal map of gene expression through 13 transcript clusters with distinct expression kinetics. A functional atlas of the transcriptome profile strikingly points to the genomic transcriptional response of the ecdysone cascade, and a sharp regulation of key components belonging to a few evolutionary conserved signalling pathways. A reverse genetic analysis provided evidence that these specific signalling pathways are involved in discrete steps of adult heart formation. In particular, the Wnt signalling pathway is shown to participate in inflow tract and cardiomyocyte differentiation, while activation of the PDGF-VEGF pathway is required for cardiac valve formation. Thus, a detailed temporal map of gene expression can reveal signalling pathways responsible for specific developmental programs and provides here substantial grasp into heart formation." Keywords: Time-course analysis Total RNAs were prepared from dissected cardiac tubes of Drosophila staged pupae at 8 successive time-points 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 42 and 48 hours after puparium formation covering adult heart organogenesis. For each time-point sample, 5 cardiac tubes were hand dissected from staged individuals. Four independent biological replicates were analyzed to confer a high reproducibility and statistical significance of the expression data. PolyA+ RNAs were linearly amplified (32 amplifications), labelled (32 with Cy3 and 32 with Cy5), and used for hybridization on Drosophila high-density oligonucleotide (INDAC) dual-channel microarrays (32 arrays) according to a loop-design dedicated to time-course experiments. Given the same number of arrays (8), a simple loop design is more efficient than a reference design: direct comparisons, smallest variance for log ratios, balancing varieties with dye-swapping (including technical replicates) and no reference sample needed (which has no intrinsic interest in our study). A graphical representation of the loop design used on this study is showed in the associated manuscript.
