Project description:Given that TREX1-deficient tumor cells showed a growth delay in immunocompetent but not immunodeficient hosts, we characterize the consequences of CT26 tumor-intrinsic TREX1 loss on the host immune system by performing single-cell RNA sequencing on intra-tumoral immune cells sorted from control and TREX1 KO CT26 tumors.

Project description:Activation of CD8+ T cells depends exquisitely on the affinity of the T cell receptor (TCR) for a peptide MHC (pMHC) ligand complex. Here, we activated OT-I transgenic CD8+ T cells with pure peptide and examined early activation responses by single-cell RNA-sequencing. T cells were activated with the high affinity OT-I cognate peptide (N4=SIINFEKL) for 1, 3 or 6 hours, or with reduced affinity peptides (T4=SIITFEKL and G4=SIIGFEKL) or the non-binding peptide (NP68=ASNENMDAM) for 6 hours. Cells were then sorted into 96-well plates by FACS and RNA was sequenced following an adapted Smart-Seq2 protocol.

Project description:Memory CD8+ T cells have the ability to provide lifelong immunity against pathogens. Although memory features generally arise after challenge with a foreign antigen, naïve CD8 single positive (SP) thymocytes may acquire phenotypic and functional characteristics of memory cells in response to cytokines such as interleukin-4. This process is associated with the induction of the T-box transcription factor Eomesodermin (EOMES). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain ill-defined. Using epigenomic profiling, we show that these innate memory CD8SP cells acquire only a portion of the active enhancer repertoire of conventional memory cells. This reprograming is secondary to EOMES recruitment, mostly to RUNX3-bound enhancers. Furthermore, EOMES is found within chromatin-associated complexes containing BRG1 and promotes the recruitment of this chromatin remodelling factor. Also, the in vivo acquisition of EOMES-dependent program is BRG1-dependent. In conclusion, our results support a strong epigenetic basis for the EOMES-driven establishment of CD8+ T cell innate memory program.

Project description:The DNA exonuclease TREX1 degrades endogenous cytosolic DNA. Cytosolic DNA triggers the cGAS/STING pathway which increases type I interferon. To investigate the physiological significance of TREX1 loss on in vivo tumor growth, we implanted control and TREX1-deficient CT26 tumor cells into immunocompetent BALB/c hosts.Tumor cells were collected 7 days after tumors reached around 200mm3.

Project description:We hypothesized that the immune microenvironment of the bone marrow influences the progression of myeloma outgrowth in the 5TGM1 transfer model of multiple myeloma. Therefore we sorted bone marrow T, NK, and non-hematopoietic stromal cells from control and tumor-bearing C57Bl/6 mice.

Project description:One of the major hurdles for the early detection of cancer is our poor understanding of tumour initiating events. Historically, cancer research has focused on histological and molecular characterisation of established tumours which has led to the identification of hundreds of putative driver mutations. It is currently unclear how these genetic aberrations impact the cell state of nascent tumour cells and their microenvironment. BRCA1 driven triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) for example has been shown to arise from luminal progenitor cells yet little is known about how BRCA1 loss-of-function (LOF) and concomitant mutations affect the luminal progenitor cell state. This repository contains ATAC-sequencing dataset of luminal progenitors isolated from 6-months old Brca1/p53 and wild-type mice. This data was used to show that the perturbation of Brca1/p53in luminal progenitors induces an aberrant alveolar differentiation pre-malignancy. Unlike alveolar differentiation occurring during gestation, this process is cell autonomous and characterised by the dysregulation of transcription factors driving alveologenesis. The ATAC-sequencing data supports a model where transcriptional and epigenetic changes driven by Brca1/p53 inadvertently promote a differentiation program hardwired in luminal progenitors, highlighting the deterministic role of the cell of origin and offering a potential explanation for the tissue specificity of BRCA1 tumours.

Project description:Barcode swapping results in the mislabeling of sequencing reads between multiplexed samples on the new patterned flow cell Illumina sequencing machines. This may compromise the validity of numerous genomic assays, especially for single-cell studies where many samples are routinely multiplexed together. The severity and consequences of barcode swapping for single-cell transcriptomic studies remain poorly understood. We have used two statistical approaches to robustly quantify the fraction of swapped reads in each of two plate-based single-cell RNA sequencing datasets. We found that approximately 2.5% of reads were mislabeled between samples on the HiSeq 4000 machine, which is lower than previous reports. We observed no correlation between the swapped fraction of reads and the concentration of free barcode across plates. Further- more, we have demonstrated that barcode swapping may generate complex but artefactual cell libraries in droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing studies. To eliminate these artefacts, we have developed an algorithm to exclude individual molecules that have swapped between samples in 10X Genomics experiments, exploiting the combinatorial complexity present in the data. This permits the continued use of cutting-edge sequencing machines for droplet-based experiments while avoiding the confounding effects of barcode swapping. This data repository contains the sequencing files associated with the droplet based scRNA-seq dataset in Griffiths et al. (2018). The data presented here should purely used for technical analysis, the biological motivation is nonetheless briefly described in the following: The mammary gland is a unique organ as it undergoes most of its development during puberty and adulthood. Characterising the hierarchy of the various mammary epithelial cells and how they are regulated in response to gestation, lactation and involution is important for understanding how breast cancer develops. Recent studies have used numerous markers to enrich, isolate and characterise the different epithelial cell compartments within the adult mammary gland. However, in all of these studies only a handful of markers were used to define and trace cell populations. Therefore, there is a need for an unbiased and comprehensive description of mammary epithelial cells within the gland at different developmental stages. To this end we used single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) to determine the gene expression profile of individual mammary epithelial cells across four adult developmental stages; nulliparous, mid gestation, lactation and post weaning (full natural involution).

Project description:Similar with others, our data proved that antigen-specific CD8+ T cells from mice primed with DNA and boosted by VACV were much more sensitive to antigen stimulation than those from DNA-boost. Since the mechanisms of in vivo tuning of antigen sensitivity (also termed functional avidity) is still not defined, we compared this two vaccination regimen at gene expression level. Results provide important information of which genes were selectively activated by VACV boost vaccination. For example, data shows that the expression levels of genes involved in Cancer and Wnt signaling pathways is more higher in DNA prime-VACV boost regimen that DNA prime-DNA boost vaccination. To obtain sufficient of antigen-specific cells for microarray analysis, the OVA-specific CD8+ T cells from OT-1 mice were adoptively transferred into wild type mice and then immunized by DNA and VACV vaccine encoding OVA. Four week later, mice were scarificed and antigen-specific CD8+ T cells were emriched by CD45.1-PE antibody and anti-PE MicroBeads from splenocytes.Total RNA was extracted by the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN, Germany). Followed by amplification and biotin labeling, the samples were hybridized using Illumina Total Prep RNA Amplification Kit (Ambion, USA). Mouse WG-6v2 Expression BeadChips were used for analysis of transcriptome.

Project description:Alas2 gene encodes the rate-limiting enzyme in heme biosynthesis. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated ablation of two Alas2 intronic cis-elements strongly reduced GATA-1-induced Alas2 transcription, heme biosynthesis, and GATA-1 regulation of other vital constituents of the erythroid cell transcriptome. Bypassing Alas2 function in Alas2 cis-element-mutant (double mutant) cells by providing its catalytic product 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) rescued heme biosynthesis and the GATA-1-dependent genetic network. We discovered a GATA factor- and heme-dependent circuit that establishes the erythroid cell transcriptome. G1E-ER-GATA-1 WT and double mutant cells were examined. Untreated WT, beta-estradiol-treated WT, beta-estradiol-treated double-mutant, and beta-estradiol/5-ALA-treated double-mutant cells were subjected to RNA-seq.
