Characterization of aldosterone-producing cell cluster (APCC) at single-cell resolution
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Single-cell RNA sequencing of two human adrenal glands (obtained from renal cell carcinoma and pheochromocytoma cases) was performed to characterize the gene expression profile of aldosterone-producing cell clusters.
Project description:To comprehensively characterize the changes within the TME during TREM1 deficiency and anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade therapy, we performed scRNA-seq analysis of the CD45+ TICs in melanoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice receiving the various treatments. We analyzed approximately 8,249 CD45+ cells from the treatment groups with t-SNE analysis, identifying 10 distinct clusters of tumor-infiltrating immune cells
Project description:Single-cell RNA-seq of mouse WT retinas and two Nr2e3 mutant retinas, ∆27 and ∆E8 (containing a 27 nucleotide in-frame deletion or a complete exon 8 deletion, respectively). The ∆27 retinas were used as a model for enhanced S-cone syndrome phenotype in humans, while the ∆E8 retinas show a progressive retinal degeneration similar to human retinitis pigmentosa patients. This data was used to explore the role of Nr2e3 in cone and rod photoreceptor differentiation.
Project description:Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on bone marrow mononuclear of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia with erythroid differentiation of the blasts and on peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia with megakaryocytic differentiation of the blasts. Raw data for this dataset can be found at the EGA under accession EGAS00001006819.
Project description:To gain a global understanding of the impact of TREM1 silencing, we analyzed the CD45+ tumor infiltrating cells (TICs) of B16F10 tumor-bearing Trem1+/+ and Trem1-/- mice. Utilizing the 10x Genomics Chromium Platform, we analyzed approximately 5390 cells per sample with a coverage rate of 15493 genes per cell.
Project description:We set up a 3D model based on iPSCs derived from patients with familial forms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and healthy non-demented control. We created cerebral organoids (COs), verified their ability to mimic AD in vitro, and used it to explore early events and the progression of AD pathogenesis. Our data reveal that despite similar expression of cell-type-specific genes during CO maturation in vitro, AD-iPSCs derived COs show limited tissue patterning and altered cellular development. These findings complement unique single-cell sequencing data of AD-iPSCs derived COs confirming this observation and uncovering that a sub-set of neurons in AD-iPSCs likely differentiates prematurely while at the same time retaining the expression of progenitor marker PAX6.
Project description:In this study, we investigated somatic mutations in T cells in patients with various hematological disorders. To analyze immune cell phenotypes with somatic mutations, we performed scRNA+TCRab sequencing from 9 patients with chronic GVHD and clonal expansions of CD4+ or CD8+ T cells based on T cell receptor sequencing. CD45+ PBMCs (lymphocytes and monocytes) were sorted with BD Influx cell sorter and subjected to sequencing with Chromium VDJ and Gene Expression platform (v1.1, 10X Genomics). Sequencing was performed with Novaseq 6000 (Illumina). The immune cell phenotypes were compared to healthy controls processed in the same laboratory (accession number E-MTAB-11170). Due to data privacy concerns, the raw sequencing data is in the European Genome-Phenome Archive (EGA) under accession code [xxxx] and can be requested through the EGA Data Access Committee.
Project description:scRNA-seq was used to characterise hiPSC-derived kidney organoids differentiated within fully synthetic self-assembling peptide hydrogels of variable mechanical strengths and compare these to organoids differentiated within the animal-derived matrix, Matrigel. Organoids were matured in the respective matrices until day 24 of differentiation and 6 organoids per support matrix were then pooled and dissociated using the cold-active protease from Bacillus licheniformis. Cells were processed on the 10x Genomics Chromium platform using the Single-Cell 3’ v3.1 protocol. The NextSeq500 (Illumina) was used to sequence the libraries generated and initial processing of the data was carried out using the 10X Genomic Cell Ranger v3.1.0 pipeline.
Project description:We correlated comprehensive T cell phenotyping data from peripheral blood to the corresponding genotype of different disease-associated and T cell related SNPs. This revealed significantly increased frequencies of naive CD4+ T cells (CD4+ TN) and T helper 17 (TH17) cells in carriers of intergenic SNP rs56258221 (BACH2/MIR4464) as compared to non-carriers. Functional experiments identified CD4+ TN from SNP-carriers to rather polarize towards pro-inflammatory subsets than into regulatory T cells (TREG). *** Due to data privacy concerns fastq files have not been uploaded ***
Project description:The spinal cord neural stem cell potential is contained within the ependymal cells lining the central canal. This neural stem cell potential is known to decline with age in the mouse. Here, we microdissected and dissociated into single cells the central canal region from the spinal cord of 4 young adult (3-to-4-month old) and 4 aged (18-to-19-month old) C57BL/6J mice to profile the transcriptomes of cells in and around the central canal using 10x Genomics technology.
Project description:We compared migratory DCs in draining mediastinal lymph node after intranasal administration of different vaccine adjuvants based on CTA1 subunit of cholera toxin. The goal was to determine different characteristics of dendritic cells subsets after pro-inflammatory vs tolerogenic adjuvant. We had 3 groups: CTA1-DD (pro- inflammatory), CTA1(R7K)-DD (tolerogenic) and PBS to define DC which migrate to LN. All vaccine constructs included 3Ea peptide to allow for sorting of DC which took up the vaccine.
