Project description:We established a co-culture model using cells derived from hPSC and studied the transcriptomes on the lung cells and the co-cultures using scRNA-seq.
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of hESC-derived mesothelium (MesoT), hESCs and hESC-derived splanchnic mesoderm (SplM) compared to primary human tissue samples. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip kit was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 methylation sites. Samples include 2 WA09 hESCs, 2 hESC-derived splanchnic mesoderm and 3 hESC-derived mesothelium replicates.
Project description:Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a potential unlimited source of insulin-producing β-cells for diabetes treatment. A greater understanding of how β-cells form during embryonic development will improve current hESC differentiation protocols. As β-cells are formed from NEUROG3-expressing endocrine progenitors, this study focused on characterizing the single-cell transcriptomes of mouse and hESC-derived endocrine progenitors. To do this, 7,223 E15.5 and 6,852 E18.5 single cells were isolated from Neurog3-Cre; Rosa26mT/mG embryos, allowing for enrichment of endocrine progenitors (yellow; tdTomato + EGFP) and endocrine cells (green; EGFP). From a NEUROG3-2A-eGFP CyT49 hESC reporter line (N5-5), 4,497 hESC-derived endocrine progenitor cells were sequenced. Differential expression analysis reveals enrichment of markers that are consistent with progenitor, endocrine, or novel cell-state populations. This study characterizes the single-cell transcriptomes of mouse and hESC-derived endocrine progenitors and serves as a resource (https://lynnlab.shinyapps.io/embryonic_pancreas/) for improving the formation of functional β-like cells from hESCs.
Project description:In this study breast cancer cell lines were co-cultured with hESC-derived neural progenitor cells. Our aim was to determine how the breast cancer cellular proteomes were changed after one week in co-culture.
