Project description:Microfluidic deterministic barcoding of mRNAs and proteins in tissue slides followed by high throughput sequencing enables the construction of high-spatial-resolution multi-omics atlas at the genome scale. Applying it to mouse embryo tissues revealed major tissue (sub)types in early-stage organogenesis, brain micro-vasculatures, and the fine structure of an optical vesicle at the single-cell-layer resolution.

Project description:As the first type of tumor immunotherapy drugs, cytokines have attracted sustained attention due to their multi-functional cellular response in immunotherapy. However, the application of cytokines for tumor immunotherapy was still limited to their short half-time, narrow therapeutic window, and undesired side effects. Here, we constructed a portable smart light-controllable (PSLC) device to address this issue. By combining the PSLC device and light-switchable gene modules, it is theoretically possible to regulate the cytokines expressed within target tumors by optical remote control. Then, cytokine interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and chemokine CXCL10, two essential immune regulatory molecules that play crucial roles in immunotherapy, are selected to test this system.

Project description:The absorption of visible light in aquatic environments has led to the common assumption that aquatic organisms sense and adapt to penetrative blue/green light wavelengths, but show little or no response to the more attenuated red/far-red wavelengths. Here we show that two marine diatom species, Phaeodactylum tricornutum and Thalassiosira pseudonana, possess a bona fide red/far-red light sensing phytochrome (DPH) that uses biliverdin as a chromophore and displays accentuated red-shifted absorbance peaks compared to other characterized plant and algal phytochromes. Exposure to both red and far-red light causes changes in gene expression in P. tricornutum and the responses to far-red light disappear in DPH knockout cells, demonstrating that P. tricornutum DPH mediates far-red light signaling. The identification of DPH genes in diverse diatom species widely distributed along the water column further emphasizes the ecological significance of far-red light sensing, raising questions about the sources of far-red light. Our analyses indicate that, although far-red wavelengths from sunlight are only detectable at the ocean surface, chlorophyll fluorescence and Raman scattering can generate red/far-red photons in deeper layers. This study opens up novel perspectives on phytochrome-mediated far-red light signaling in the ocean and on the light sensing and adaptive capabilities of marine phototrophs.

Project description:A quorum sensing null mutant was compared with D. shibae wild-type in order to identify quorum sensing controlled traits in this organism. Samples were taken at different optical densities in the exponential phase and in the stationary phase in order to clarify if quorum sensing regulation is dependent on cell-densitiy

Project description:Chemical modifications to the tails of histone proteins act as gene regulators that play a pivotal role in adaptive responses to environmental stress. Determining the short and long term kinetics of histone marks is essential for understanding their functions in adaptation. We used Caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism to study the histone modification kinetics in response to environmental stress, taking advantage of their ability to live in both terrestrial and aquatic environments. We investigated the multigenerational genome-wide dynamics of five histone marks (H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H4K20me1, H3K36me1, and H3K9me3) by maintaining P0 animals on terrestrial (agar plates), F1 in aquatic cultures, and F2 back on terrestrial environments. We determined the distributions of histone marks in the gene promoter regions and found that H4K20me1, H3K36me1, and H3K9me3 showed up to eleven-fold differences in density, whereas H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 remained highly constant during adaptation from terrestrial to aquatic environments. Furthermore, we predicted that up to five combinations of histone marks can co-occupy single gene promoters and confirmed the colocalization of these histone marks by structured illumination microscopy. The co-occupancy increases with environment changes and different co-occupancy patterns contribute to variances in gene expressions and thereby presents a supporting evidence for the histone code hypothesis.

Project description:Thallium (Tl) is a trace metal element used in the electronics, semiconductor and electro-optical industries. With the development of high-tech industries, thallium severely pollutes the aquatic environment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cardiotoxicity and developmental toxicity of Tl by using vertebrate model zebrafish embryos. RNA-seq was performed on wild type zebrafish embryos exposed to 0, 200, and 800 ppb Tl from 6 to 48 hpf. The transcriptomic profile revealed molecular understanding regarding the cardiovascular and developmental toxicity of Tl, providing valuable information for risk assessment of the emerging contaminant thallium.

Project description:The growing appreciation of immune cell-cell interactions within disease environments has led to significant efforts to develop highly effective protein-, and cell-based immunotherapies. However, characterizing these complex cell-cell interactions in high resolution remains challenging. Thus, technologies that leverage therapeutic-based modalities for profiling intercellular environments can provide unique advantages towards understanding these cellular interactions at molecular-level detail. To address this, we introduce photocatalytic cell tagging (PhoTag), a platform for profiling cell-cell interactions that utilizes a single domain antibody (VHH) conjugated to a photoactivatable flavin-based cofactor. Upon irradiation with visible light, the tethered flavin photocatalyst generates phenoxy radical tags for targeted labeling within cell-cell contact environments. Using anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 VHH flavin conjugates, we demonstrate that PhoTag achieves highly selective synaptic labeling in antigen presenting cell-T cell co-culture systems. By combining the high resolution transcellular biotinylation capability of PhoTag with multi-omics single cell sequencing, we interrogated transient interactions between Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) populations and Raji PD-L1 B cells and discovered that specific T cell subtypes can transiently interact more efficiently than others. We envision that the spatio-temporal and modular nature of PhoTag will enable its broad utilization for detailed profiling of intercellular interactions across different biological systems.

Project description:Recent advances in high-resolution mapping of spatial interactions among regulatory elements support the existence of complex topological assemblies of enhancers and promoters known as enhancer-promoter hubs or cliques. Yet, organization principles of these multi-interacting enhancer-promoter hubs and their potential role in regulating gene expression in cancer remains unclear. Here, we systematically identified enhancer-promoter hubs in breast cancer, lymphoma, and leukemia. We found that highly interacting enhancer-promoter hubs form at key oncogenes and lineage-associated transcription factors potentially promoting oncogenesis of these diverse cancer types. Genomic and optical mapping of interactions among enhancer and promoter elements further showed that topological alterations in hubs coincide with transcriptional changes underlying acquired resistance to targeted therapy in T cell leukemia and B cell lymphoma. Together, our findings suggest that enhancer-promoter hubs are dynamic and heterogeneous topological assemblies with the potential to control gene expression circuits promoting oncogenesis and drug resistance.
