A single-cell transcriptome atlas of the ageing Drosophila brain

ABSTRACT: The diversity of cell types and regulatory states in the brain, and how these change during ageing, remains largely unknown. We present a single-cell transcriptome atlas of the entire adult Drosophila melanogaster brain sampled across its lifespan. Cell clustering identified 87 initial cell clusters that are further subclustered and validated by targeted cell-sorting. Our data shows high granularity and identifies a wide range of cell types. Gene network analyses using SCENIC revealed regulatory heterogeneity linked to energy consumption. During ageing, RNA content declines exponentially without affecting neuronal identity in old brains. This single-cell brain atlas covers nearly all cells in the normal brain and provides the tools to study cellular diversity alongside other Drosophila and mammalian single-cell datasets in our unique single-cell analysis platform. These results allow comprehensive exploration of all transcriptional states of an entire ageing brain.

The Fly Cell Atlas: single-cell transcriptomes of the entire adult Drosophila - 10x dataset

Project description:Single-cell technologies have ushered in a new era for Drosophila research, allowing researchers to obtain transcriptomes for all stable cell types and dynamic cell states. Here we present the first release of the adult Fly Cell Atlas (FCA), which includes 580k cells from 15 individually dissected sexed tissues, as well as from the entire head and body. We annotated more than 250 distinct cell types across all tissues. Few cell types were uniquely detected in the entire head and body samples, suggesting high cell-type saturation. We provide an in-depth analysis of gene signatures and transcription factor combinations, as well as sexual dimorphism, across the whole animal. Finally, we studied cell type lineages that are shared between tissues, such as blood cells and muscle cells, allowing the retrieval of rare cell types and tissue- specific subtypes. This atlas provides a valuable resource for the entire Drosophila community as a reference to study genetic perturbations and disease models at single-cell resolution.

Single cell transcriptome atlas of the Drosophila larval brain

Project description:The cellular composition of the brain and how it is affected by starvation, remains largely unknown. Here we introduce a single-cell transcriptome atlas of the entire Drosophila melanogaster first instar larval brain. We first assigned cell type identity based on the expression of previously characterized marker genes, allowing us to distinguish five major groups: neural progenitors cells, differentiated neurons, glial cells, undifferentiated neurons as well as non-neural cells corresponding to organs and structures located adjacent to the brain. All major classes were further subdivided into multiple subtypes based on cluster analysis, revealing critical biological features of various cell types. Moreover, we included two different feeding conditions: normal fed versus starved. After starvation, the transcriptional profile of several cell clusters were altered, while the overall composition of the brain remains unaffected. Intriguingly, different cell clusters show very distinct responses to starvation, suggesting the presence of cell-specific programs for nutrition availability. Establishing a single-cell transcriptome atlas of the larval brain provides a powerful tool to explore cell diversity, assess genetic profiles of neurogenic, neuronal and glial cell types. The analysis of neurotransmitters, neuropeptides and their respective receptors may further open the doors for functional studies.

SCENIC+: identification of enhancers and gene regulatory networks using single-cell multiomics (Cortex)

Project description:Joint profiling of chromatin accessibility and gene expression of individual cells provides an opportunity to decipher enhancer-driven gene regulatory networks (eGRN). Here we present a new method for the inference of eGRNs, called SCENIC+. SCENIC+ predicts genomic enhancers along with candidate upstream transcription factors (TF) and links these enhancers to candidate target genes. Specific TFs for each cell type or cell state are predicted based on the concordance of TF binding site accessibility, TF expression, and target gene expression. To improve both recall and precision of TF identification, we curated and clustered more than 40,000 position weight matrices that we could associate with ~1,500 human TFs. We validated and benchmarked each of the SCENIC+ components on diverse data sets from different species, including human peripheral blood mononuclear cell types, human ENCODE cell lines, human melanoma cell states, and Drosophila retinal development. Next, we exploit SCENIC+ predictions to study conserved TFs, enhancers, and GRNs between human and mouse cell types in the cerebral cortex. Finally, we provide new capabilities that exploit the inferred eGRNs to study the dynamics of gene regulation along differentiation trajectories; to map regulatory activities onto tissues using spatial omics data; and to predict the effect of TF perturbations on cell state. SCENIC+ provides critical insight into gene regulation, starting from multi-ome atlases of scATAC-seq and scRNA-seq. The SCENIC+ suite is available as a set of Python modules at scenicplus.readthedocs.io.

A single-cell transcriptomic atlas of the adult Drosophila ventral nerve cord

Project description:The Drosophila ventral nerve cord (VNC) receives and processes descending signals from the brain to produce a variety of coordinated locomotor outputs. It also integrates sensory information from the periphery and sends ascending signals to the brain. We used single-cell transcriptomics to generate an unbiased classification of cellular diversity in the VNC of five-day old adult flies. We produced an atlas of 26,000 high-quality cells, representing more than 100 transcriptionally distinct cell types. The predominant gene signatures defining neuronal cell types reflect shared developmental histories based on the neuroblast from which cells were derived, as well as their birth order. Cells could also be assigned to specific neuromeres using adult Hox gene expression. This single-cell transcriptional atlas of the adult fly VNC will be a valuable resource for future studies of neurodevelopment and behavior.
