Project description:Using Multiome and previously published sc/snRNA-seq data, we studied eight anatomical regions of the human heart including left and right ventricular free walls (LV and RV), left and right atria (LA and RA), left ventricular apex (AX), interventricular septum (SP), sino-atrial node (SAN) and atrioventricular node (AVN). For the first time, we profile the cells of the human cardiac conduction system, revealing their distinctive repertoire of ion channels, G-protein coupled receptors and cell-cell interactions. We map the identified cells to spatial transcriptomic data to discover cellular niches within the eight regions of the heart.

Project description:We performed Visium CytAssist (10X), GeoMx DSP (Nanostring) and Chromium Flex (10X Genomics) full transcriptome profiling on Breast Cancer (BC), Lung Cancer (LC) and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) samples from archival FFPE blocks. We explore the data quality across blocks with different storage times and DV200 values for all the three methods. We compared the cell type signature purity between ST methods Visium and GeoMx by utilising pathology annotations and scRNAseq. For the Visium and Chromium methods with a large number of data points we explored the heterogeneity between tissues. Finally, we demonstrate the discovery of patient-specific tumor-TME interactions across all three methods.

Project description:Single-cell RNAseq (scRNAseq) and paired VDJ analysis and spatial transcriptomics, we create the first comprehensive cell atlas of the healthy developing, paediatric and adult human gut, including 347,980 cells from up to 10 distinct anatomical sites. We use this data to trace the cellular composition of the gut throughout life, define novel cell markers and cell-cell interactions. We find four neuronal cell populations in the developing enteric nervous system, with expression patterns indicative of irritable bowel syndrome and Hirschsprung’s disease, and identify key cell players and communication networks initiating lymphoid structure formation in early human development.

Project description:Post-transplant hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence is a devastating disease with an abysmal prognosis and no established treatment or prevention options. We performed spatial analysis to profile the tumor immune microenvironment in primary HCC at liver transplantation and in recurrent HCC at re-hepatectomy and elucidate the molecular mechanisms that drive recurrence under immunosuppression. This analysis offers potential for developing new therapeutic strategies against post-transplant HCC recurrence. Paired FFPE samples from primary and recurrent sites were collected from patients who underwent re-hepatectomy for HCC recurrence after liver transplantation due to HCC. The Visium CytAssist Spatial Gene and Protein Expression for FFPE, 11 mm (10x Genomics) was utilized to perform Visium experiments on FFPE tissue from the primary tumor and the recurrent tumor (comprising tumor and non-tumor regions).

Project description:We developed cell2location, a principled and versatile Bayesian model that is designed to resolve fine-grained cell types in spatial transcriptomic data and create comprehensive cellular maps of diverse tissues. To validate cell2location in real tissue, we applied the model to data from the mouse brain, which features diverse neural cell types organised in a well characterised spatial architecture across brain areas, thus presenting a canonical use case to test spatial genomics. We generated matched single nucleus (sn, this submission) and Visium spatial RNA-seq (10X Genomics) profiles of adjacent mouse brain sections that contain multiple regions from the telencephalon and diencephalon. To assess the biological and intra-organ technical variation in spatial mapping, we assayed two mouse brains and serial tissue sections from each brain (total of 3 and 2 matched sections from two animals, respectively, and an extra section for snRNA-seq), creating a rich multi-modal and replicated transcriptomic dataset. Tissue processing. Brains of wild-type adult C57BL/6 mice (postnatal day 56, 1 female and 1 male) were dissected, snap frozen, embedded in optimal cutting temperature compound (Tissue-Tek) and stored at -80oC. Brain hemispheres were cryosectioned at -20oC using a cryostat (Leica, CM3050S). To assess tissue quality, RNA was extracted from test tissue sections using the RNeasy Pico Kit (Qiagen) and yielded high RIN values (9.6 and 9.7) on an Agilent Bioanalyser, indicating high RNA quality. For matched single nuclei and Visium RNA-seq experiments, brain hemispheres were cryosectioned to adjacent thick (200 µm) and thin (10 µm) coronal sections, respectively, and processed the same day. In total, four consecutive sets of thick and thin tissue sections were collected from each brain. Five sets of tissue sections yielded both good quality single nuclei and Visium data (three adjacent sections from mouse 1 and two sections from mouse 2) while one additional section from mouse 2 yielded good single nuclei; these were considered for analysis in this study. Visium spatial transcriptomics. Thin (10 µm) mouse brain sections were cryosectioned and mounted directly onto separate capture areas on 10X Visium Spatial Gene Expression slides (beta product version). Processing was done per manufacturer’s protocols. Briefly, sections were methanol-fixed, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained, and imaged on a NanoZoomer 2.0 slide scanner (Hamamatsu). Sections were then permeabilized and further processed to obtain cDNA libraries that were quality controlled using the Agilent Bioanalyser. The cDNA libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 system, aiming at 300 million raw reads per section with read lengths 28cy R1, 8cy i7 index, 0cy i5 index, 91cy read 2. 10X Visium spatial sequencing data was aligned to mouse pre-mRNA genome reference version mm10 using 10X SpaceRanger and mRNA count matrices were generated by adding intronic and exonic reads for each gene in each location. The paired histology H&E images were processed using 10X SpaceRanger to select locations covered by tissue by aligning pre-recorded spot locations with fiducial border spots in the histology image. This allows evaluating the correspondence between cell maps produced using our method and the known brain anatomy. This also allows identifying the number of nuclei in each spot using nuclear segmentation as described in Suppl. Methods and reported in Fig S8A-D. The histology image was used to manually annotate cortical layers in the primary somatosensory cortex (SSp) region using the lasso tool in the 10X Loupe browser.

Project description:We used Visium technology (10X Genomics) to infer cell-to-cell communication in ovarian and uterine tissue based on spatial proximity. Organs from 3-month mice in diestrus and 18-month old mice were collected and frozen in OCT. 10 µm thick tissue slices were placed on Visium Spatial Gene Expression Slides (10X Genomics) and stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E). Libraries were prepared by manufacturer’s recommendations and sequenced on NovaSeq6000. For samples that were sequenced in two runs, both sequencing runs were merged when running spaceranger (10X Genomics). Original nd2 microscopy images and results of scRNA-seq (linked datasets) and spatial transcriptomics analysis are available at Biostudies (S-BIAD482 and S-BSST852).

Project description:Aging is a major, yet unmodifiable, risk factor for cardiovascular disease, leading to vascular alterations, increased cardiac fibrosis, and inflammation, all of which contribute to impaired cardiac function. To investigate the spatial impact of aging, we applied an integrative approach combining single-nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics in 12-week-old and 18-month-old mice. We systematically mapped the aging heart and identified larger vessel-associated niches as key hotspots for activated macrophages and fibroblasts in aged hearts. These niches, surrounding arteries, were also enriched in senescent cells. Our findings suggest that the microenvironment around the vasculature is particularly susceptible to age-related changes and serves as a primary site for inflammation-driven aging so called \"inflammaging\". This study provides new insights into how aging reshapes cardiac cellular architecture, highlighting vessel-associated niches as potential therapeutic targets for age-related cardiac dysfunction.
