Simultaneous lineage tracing and cell type identification using CRISPR/Cas9 induced genetic scars

ABSTRACT: A key goal of developmental biology is to understand how a single cell transforms into a full-grown organism consisting of many different cell types. Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become a widely-used method due to its ability to identify all cell types in a tissue or organ in a systematic manner. However, a major challenge is to organize the resulting taxonomy of cell types into lineage trees revealing the developmental origin of cells. Here, we present a strategy for simultaneous lineage tracing and transcriptome profiling in thousands of single cells. By combining scRNA-seq with computational analysis of lineage barcodes generated by genome editing of transgenic reporter genes, we reconstruct developmental lineage trees in zebrafish larvae and adult fish. In future analyses, LINNAEUS (LINeage tracing by Nuclease-Activated Editing of Ubiquitous Sequences) can be used as a systematic approach for identifying the lineage origin of novel cell types, or of known cell types under different conditions.

Simultaneous single-cell profiling of lineages and cell types in the vertebrate brain

Project description:The lineage relationships among the hundreds of cell types generated during development are difficult to reconstruct. A recent method, GESTALT, used CRISPR–Cas9 barcode editing for large-scale lineage tracing, but was restricted to early development and did not identify cell types. Here we present scGESTALT, which combines the lineage recording capabilities of GESTALT with cell-type identification by single-cell RNA sequencing. The method relies on an inducible system that enables barcodes to be edited at multiple time points, capturing lineage information from later stages of development. Sequencing of ∼60,000 transcriptomes from the juvenile zebrafish brain identified >100 cell types and marker genes. Using these data, we generate lineage trees with hundreds of branches that help uncover restrictions at the level of cell types, brain regions, and gene expression cascades during differentiation. scGESTALT can be applied to other multicellular organisms to simultaneously characterize molecular identities and lineage histories of thousands of cells during development and disease.

Massively parallel whole-organism lineage tracing using CRISPR/Cas9 induced genetic scars

Project description:A key goal of developmental biology is to understand how a single cell transforms into a full-grown organism consisting of many cells. Although impressive progress has been made in lineage tracing using imaging approaches, analysis of vertebrate lineage trees has mostly been limited to relatively small subsets of cells. Here we present scar-trace, a strategy for massively parallel whole-organism lineage tracing based on Cas9 induced genetic scars in the zebrafish.

Barcode-free prediction of cell lineages from scRNA-seq datasets

Project description:The integration of lineage tracing with scRNA-seq has transformed our understanding of gene expression dynamics during development, regeneration, and disease. However, lineage tracing is technically demanding and most existing scRNA-seq datasets are devoid of lineage information. By analyzing our own (mouse embryonic stem cells;mESCs) and public lineage-annotated scRNA-seq datastes, we could identify and characterize genes displaying conserved expression levels over cell divisions in multiple cell types. This resulted in the development of Gene Expression Memory-based Lineage Inference (GEMLI), a computational pipeline allowing to predict cell lineages over several cell divisions solely from scRNA-seq datasets.

Whole organism lineage tracing by combinatorial and cumulative genome editing

Project description:Multicellular systems develop from single cells through a lineage, but current lineage tracing approaches scale poorly to whole organisms. Here we use genome editing to progressively introduce and accumulate diverse mutations in a DNA barcode over multiple rounds of cell division. The barcode, an array of CRISPR/Cas9 target sites, records lineage relationships in the patterns of mutations shared between cells. In cell culture and zebrafish, we show that rates and patterns of editing are tunable, and that thousands of lineage-informative barcode alleles can be generated. By sampling hundreds of thousands of cells from individual zebrafish, we find that most cells in adult zebrafish organs derive from relatively few embryonic progenitors. Genome editing of synthetic target arrays for lineage tracing (GESTALT) will help generate large-scale maps of cell lineage in multicellular systems.

Comprehensive spatiotemporal mapping of single-cell lineages in developing mouse brain by CRISPR-based barcoding

Project description:A fundamental interest in developmental neuroscience is to map the complete single-cell lineages within the brain. We developed a CRISPR editing-based lineage specific tracing (CREST) method for clonal tracing in Cre mice. We combined two complementary strategies to map the comprehensive single-cell lineage landscape in developing mouse brain. Applying snapCREST (snapshotting CREST) in mouse ventral midbrain (vMB), we constructed a spatiotemporal lineage landscape spanning the major developmental stage of vMB. Specifically, we identified six progenitor archetypes that could represent principal clonal fate of individual vMB progenitors, whose progenies showed restricted and graded distribution along the dorsal-ventral axis. We uncovered subregion-specific relationship between glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons and identified three distinct clonal lineages in the floor plate that specified glutamatergic neurons, dopaminergic neurons, or both neuronal types. We further created pandaCREST (progenitor and derivative associating CREST) by combining CREST, ex vivo organoid culture, and clonal splitting strategy to associate the transcriptome of progenitor cells in vivo with their differentiation potentials. Using pandaCREST, we identified multiple developmental origins of dopaminergic neurons and demonstrated that the fate potential of a transcriptome-defined progenitor type reflects the composite potentials of individual progenitors, each with distinct clonal fate and molecular signatures. Thus, the CREST method and strategies allow comprehensive single-cell lineage analysis that could offer new insights into the molecular programs underlying neural specification.

Benary2021 - tissue dynamics of the hepato-pancreato-biliary organ system

Project description:Single cell-based studies have revealed tremendous cellular heterogeneity in stem cell and progenitor compartments, suggesting continuous differentiation trajectories with intermixing of cells at various states of lineage commitment and notable degree of plasticity during organogenesis. The hepato-pancreato-biliary organ system relies on a small endoderm progenitor compartment that gives rise to a variety of different adult tissues, including liver, pancreas, gallbladder, and extra-hepatic bile ducts. Experimental manipulation of various developmental signals in the mouse embryo underscored important cellular plasticity in this embryonic territory. This is also reflected in the existence of human genetic syndromes as well as congenital or environmentally-caused human malformations featuring multiorgan phenotypes in liver, pancreas and gallbladder. Nevertheless, the precise lineage hierarchy and succession of events leading to the segregation of an endoderm progenitor compartment into hepatic, biliary, and pancreatic structures are not yet established. Here, we combine computational modelling approaches with genetic lineage tracing to assess the tissue dynamics accompanying the ontogeny of the hepato-pancreato-biliary organ system. We show that a multipotent progenitor domain persists at the border between liver and pancreas, even after pancreatic fate is specified, contributing to the formation of several organ derivatives, including the liver. Moreover, using single-cell RNA sequencing we define a specialized niche that possibly supports such extended cell fate plasticity.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Maps Heterogeneity of Immune cells in mice with allogeneic cardiac transplantation

Project description:The coordinated spatial and temporal regulation of gene expression in the murine hindlimb determines the identity of mesenchymal progenitors and the development of diversity of musculoskeletal tissues they form. Hindlimb development has historically been studied with lineage tracing of individual genes selected a priori, or at the bulk tissue level, which does not allow for the determination of single cell transcriptional programs yielding mature cell types and tissues. To identify the cellular trajectories of lineage specification during limb bud development, we used single cell mRNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to profile the developing murine hindlimb.

Multipotent Progenitors Instruct Ontogeny of the Superior Colliculus - pooled embryonic Fzd10 lineage

Project description:The superior colliculus (SC) in the mammalian midbrain is essential for multisensory integration and is composed of a rich diversity of excitatory and inhibitory neurons and glia. The developmental principles directing the generation of SC cell-type diversity are however not understood. Here we pursued systematic cell lineage tracing in silico and in vivo, preserving full spatial information, using genetic MADM (Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers)-based clonal analysis with single-cell sequencing (MADM-CloneSeq). The analysis of clonally-related cell lineages revealed that radial glial progenitor (RGP) cells in SC are exceptionally multipotent. Individual resident RGPs have the capacity to produce all excitatory and inhibitory SC neuron types, even at the stage of terminal division. While individual clonal units show no pre-defined cellular composition, the establishment of appropriate relative proportions of distinct neuronal types occurs in a PTEN-dependent manner. Collectively, our findings provide an inaugural framework at single RGP/cell level of the mammalian SC ontogeny
