Multi-omic profiling of single nuclei uncovers regulatory diversity of brain cell types and diseases


ABSTRACT: Most existing single-cell techniques can only make one type of molecular measurements. Although computational approaches have been developed to integrate single-cell datasets, their efficacy still needs to be determined with reference to authentic single-cell multi-omic profiles. To address this challenge, we devised single-nucleus methylCytosine, Chromatin accessibility and Transcriptome sequencing (snmC2T-seq) and applied the approach to post-mortem human frontal cortex tissue. We developed a computational framework to evaluate the quality of finely defined cell types using multi-modal information and validated the efficacy of computational multi-omic integration methods. Correlation analysis in individual cells revealed gene groups showing distinct relations between methylation and expression. Integration of snmC2T-seq with other multi- and single- modal datasets enabled joint analyses of the methylome, chromatin accessibility, transcriptome, and chromatin architecture for 63 human cortical cell types. We reconstructed the regulatory lineage of these cortical cell types and found pronounced cell-type-specific enrichment of disease risks for neuropsychiatric traits, predicting causal cell types that can be targeted for treatment.
