Single-cell reconstruction of developmental trajectories during zebrafish embryogenesis

ABSTRACT: During embryogenesis, cells acquire distinct fates by transitioning through transcriptional states. To uncover these transcriptional trajectories during zebrafish embryogenesis, we sequenced 38,731 cells and developed URD, a simulated diffusion-based computational reconstruction method. URD identified the trajectories of 25 cell types through early somitogenesis, gene expression along them, and their spatial origin in the blastula. Analysis of Nodal signaling mutants revealed that their transcriptomes were canalized into a subset of wild-type transcriptional trajectories. Some wild-type developmental branchpoints contained cells expressing genes characteristic of multiple fates. These cells appeared to trans-specify from one fate to another. These findings reconstruct the transcriptional trajectories of a vertebrate embryo, highlight the concurrent canalization and plasticity of embryonic specification, and provide a framework to reconstruct complex developmental trees from single-cell transcriptomes. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

A Single Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of Human Neocortical Development

Project description:<p>Defining the number, proportion, or lineage of distinct cell types in the developing human brain is an important goal of modern brain research. We produced single cell transcriptomic profiles for 40,000 cells at mid-gestation to define deep expression profiles corresponding to all known major cell types at this developmental period and compare this with bulk tissue profiles. We identified multiple transcription factors (TFs) and co-factors expressed in specific cell types, including multiple new cell-type-specific relationships, providing an unprecedented resource for understanding human neocortical development and evolution. This includes the first single-cell characterization of human subplate neurons and subtypes of developing glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons. We also used these data to deconvolute single cell regulatory networks that connect regulatory elements and transcriptional drivers to single cell gene expression programs in the developing CNS. We characterized major developmental trajectories that tie cell cycle progression with early cell fate decisions during early neurogenesis. Remarkably, we found that differentiation occurs on a transcriptomic continuum, so that differentiating cells not only express the few key TFs that drive cell fates, but express broad, mixed cell-type transcriptomes prior to telophase. Finally, we mapped neuropsychiatric disease genes to specific cell types, implicating dysregulation of specific cell types in ASD, ID, and epilepsy, as the mechanistic underpinnings of several neurodevelopmental disorders. Together these results provide an extensive catalog of cell types in human neocortex and extend our understanding of early cortical development, human brain evolution and the cellular basis of neuropsychiatric disease.</p>

Single-Cell RNA-Seq Reveals Dynamic Early Embryonic-like Programs during Chemical Reprogramming

Project description:We profile 36,199 single-cell transcriptomes at multiple timepoints throughout a highly efficient chemical reprogramming system using RNA-sequencing and reconstruct their progression trajectories. Through identifying sequential molecular events, we reveal that the dynamic early embryonic-like programs account for successful reprogramming from XEN-like state to pluripotency, including the transcriptomic signature of concomitant two-cell (2C) embryonic-like and early pluripotency program and the epigenetic signature of notable genome-wide DNA demethylation.

Single-cell analysis of homeostatic and regenerative adult skeletal muscle stem cells

Project description:Skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSCs) ensure the formation and homeostasis of skeletal muscle and are responsible for its growth and repair processes. For repair to occur, MuSCs must exit from quiescence, abandon their niche and asymmetrically and symmetrically divide to reconstitute the stem cell pool and give rise to muscle progenitors, respectively. The transcriptomes of pooled MuSCs have provided a rich source of information for describing the genetic programs underlying distinct static cell states; however, bulk microarray and RNA-seq afford only averaged gene expression profiles, which blur the heterogeneity and developmental dynamics of asynchronous MuSC populations. The granularity required to identify distinct cell types, states, and their dynamics can be provided by single-cell analysis. We were able to compare the transcriptomes of thousands of MuSCs and primary myoblasts isolated from homeostatic or regenerating muscles by single-cell RNA- sequencing. Using computational approaches, we could reconstruct dynamic trajectories and place, in a pseudotemporal manner, the transcriptomes of individual MuSC within these trajectories. This approach allowed for the identification of distinct clusters of MuSCs and primary myoblasts with partially overlapping but distinct transcriptional signatures, as well as the description of metabolic pathways associated with defined MuSC states.

Comprehensive single cell transcriptome lineages of a proto-vertebrate

Project description:Studies of ascidian (sea squirt) embryos have highlighted the importance of cell lineages in animal development for over 100 years. As simple proto-vertebrates, they are also used to explore the evolutionary origins of novel cell types, such as cranial placodes and neural crest in vertebrates. To build upon these efforts we have determined comprehensive single cell transcriptomes of Ciona intestinalis throughout embryogenesis. More than 90,000 cells from 10 different developmental stages were examined, spanning the entirety of morphogenesis, from the onset of gastrulation at the 110-cell stage to the hatching of swimming tadpoles. This represents an average of over 12-fold coverage for every cell at every stage of development, owing to the small cell numbers that are a hallmark property of ascidian embryogenesis. Single cell transcriptome trajectories were used to construct “virtual” cell lineage maps, which confirm and extend those determined by conventional labeling methods. These datasets were also used to reconstruct regulatory cascades and provisional gene networks for a variety of cell types, including nearly 40 different neuronal subtypes comprising the larval nervous system. We summarize several applications of these datasets, including the identification of individual transcriptomes within the complete synaptome of swimming tadpoles, visualizing dynamic changes in gene expression during the birth, migration, and axogenesis of defined neurons, and the evolution of novel cell types such as the vertebrate telencephalon.

Whole embryo RNA-seq of 73 mouse mutant lines and baseline controls from the Mouse Genetics Project (DMDD)

Project description:The Deciphering the Mechanisms of Developmental Disorders (DMDD) programme analyses the morphological and molecular phenotypes of embryonic and perinatal lethal mouse mutant lines. Here we show that single whole embryo RNA-seq of 73 mouse mutant lines (>1000 transcriptomes) uncovers transcriptional events underlying embryonic lethality and associates previously uncharacterised genes with specific pathways and tissues. Further, we separate embryonic delay signatures from line-specific transcriptional changes by developing a baseline mRNA expression catalogue of wild-type mice during somitogenesis. Collectively, this work provides a rich resource to further our understanding of early embryonic developmental disorders.

Transcriptional signature in microglia associated with Aβ plaque phagocytosis

Project description:The role of microglia cells in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is well recognized, however their molecular and functional diversity remain unclear. Here we isolated amyloid plaque-containing (using labelling with methoxy–XO4, XO4+) and non-containing (XO4-) microglia from an AD mouse model. Transcriptomics analysis identified different transcriptional trajectories in ageing and AD mice. XO4+ microglial transcriptomes demonstrated dysregulated expression of genes associated with late onset AD. We further showed that the transcriptional program associated with XO4+ microglia from mice is present in a subset of human microglia isolated from brains of individuals with AD. XO4- microglia displayed transcriptional signatures associated with accelerated ageing and contained more intracellular post-synaptic material than XO4+ microglia, despite reduced active synaptosome phagocytosis. We identified HIF1α as potentially regulating synaptosome phagocytosis in vitro using primary human microglia, and BV2 mouse microglial cells. Together these findings provide insight into molecular mechanisms underpinning the functional diversity of microglia in AD.
