Characterization of human pluripotent stem cell differentiation by single-cell dual-omics analyses.

ABSTRACT: In vivo differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) has unique advantages, such as multilineage differentiation, angiogenesis, and close cell-cell interactions. To systematically investigate multilineage differentiation mechanisms of hPSCs, we constructed the in vivo hPSC differentiation landscape containing 239,670 cells using teratoma models. We identified 43 cell types, inferred 18 cell differentiation trajectories, and characterized common and specific gene regulation patterns during hPSC differentiation at both transcriptional and epigenetic levels. Additionally, we developed the developmental single-cell Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (dscBLAST), an R-based cell identification tool, to simplify the identification processes of developmental cells. Using dscBLAST, we ali
