Gnai1+ stromal cells regulate intestinal goblet and Paneth cell differentiation through c-Jun signaling

ABSTRACT: Combining single-cell and spatial transcriptomics for mapping different intestinal segments is still relatively absented, and the subtypes of intestinal stromal cells and their downstream signling also remain obscure. Our study provides a comprehensive view of 18 identified cell types across five mouse intestinal segments using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Integrating scRNA-seq with spatial transcriptomics reveals gene profiles along both segmental and crypt-villus spatial dimensions, including cell characteristics, interactions, signaling networks, extracellular matrix contributions, and functional coordination. Not only the different subtypes of intestinal immune cells were analyzed, but also a subtype of Pdgfra-high stromal cells, Gnai1+ stromal cells, was identified. These cells can support intestinal morphology and regulate the activities of goblet cells, Paneth cells, and intestinal stem cells via the activation of c-Jun and Wnt signaling. Thus, we have compiled a publicly available single-cell and spatial transcriptomics resource covering five intestinal segments to facilitate further research, particularly on stromal cell populations and intestinal microenvironment homeostasis.

Spatial Transcriptomic profiling of day2 wounds and intact tissues of Hgfac WT and KO mice

Project description:Wound healing is orchestrated by a spatial and temporal network of intercellular communication between epithelial cells, the stromal compartment, and the immune system. Our scRNA-seq analysis of Hgfac WT and KO wounds reveals that Aldh1a3 is downstream of the HGFAC system and Aldh1a3 is highly upregulated in wound-asociated epithelial (WAE) cells in responce to endoscopic wounding, suggesting WAE cells can potentially secrete retinoic acid into wound bed. To dissect the healing responce in the intestinal mucosa, we peformed spatial transcriptomics analysis.

Novel integration of spatial and single-cell omics data sets enables deeper insights into IPF pathogenesis

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease characterized by repetitive alveolar injuries with excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. A crucial need in understanding IPF pathogenesis is identifying cell types associated with histopathological regions, particularly local fibrosis centers known as fibroblast foci. To address this, we integrated published spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) transcriptomics and adopted the Query method and the Overlap method to determine cell type enrichments in histopathological regions. Distinct fibroblast cell types are highly associated with fibroblast foci, and transitional alveolar type 2 and aberrant KRT5-/KRT17+ epithelial cells are associated with morphologically normal alveoli in human IPF lungs. Furthermore, we employed laser capture microdissection directed mass spectrometry to profile proteins. By comparing with another published similar dataset, common differentially expressed proteins and enriched pathways related to ECM structure organization and collagen processing were identified in fibroblast foci. Importantly, cell type enrichment results from innovative spatial proteomics and scRNA-seq data integration accord with those from spatial transcriptomics and scRNA-seq data integration, supporting the capability and versatility of the entire approach. In summary, we integrated spatial multi-omics with scRNA-seq data to identify disease-associated cell types and potential targets for novel therapies in IPF intervention. The approach can be further applied to other disease areas characterized by spatial heterogeneity.

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics profile of porcine jejunum and ileum containing Peyer's patches

Project description:To establish better understanding of cells found in jejunal and ileal Peyer's patches of pigs, we utilized single-cell RNA sequencing scRNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics to recover and analyze cells and spatial regions from sections of jejunum and ileum containing Peyer's patches. Cells identified via single-cell RNA sequencing included B, T/innate lymphoid cell, myeloid, epithelial, and stromal lineage cells. Spatial dots recovered via spatial transcriptomics belonged to regions including villi, crypts, interfollicular/parafollicular zones, follicles, and muscularis. Overall, results provide new information on regional localization and transcriptional profiles of cells in the pig small intestine.

Immune-epithelial networks characterise the cellular ecosystem of the small intestine in celiac disease

Project description:The immune-epithelial interactions driving intestinal damage in coeliac disease (CD) are incompletely understood.We applied single-cell (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics to define this. scRNA-seq of 76,824 immune and epithelial cells in 23 subjects with and without CD showed epithelial populations shifted towards a progenitor state, with interferon-driven transcriptional responses, and perturbation of secretory and enteroendocrine populations. Mucosal T-cells showed numeric and functional changes in regulatory, T follicular helper-like CD4+T-cell, natural intraepithelial lymphocytes, and CD8+T-cell subsets with a skewed TCR repertoire.Mucosal changes persisted despite treatment, representing a persistent immune-epithelial 'scar'. Spatial transcriptomics defined transcriptionally-distinct niches beyond that described in conventional histological scores,including CD-specific lymphoid structures containing localised T-B cell interactions. Spatial transcriptomics-driven receptor-ligand analyses and examination of disease susceptibility gene expression defined networks of altered chemokine and morphogen signalling, which may drive crypt axis distortion andallowed spatial/cellular resolution of where genetic drivers of CD act in tissue.

Single-Cell RNA-seq Reveals Obesity-Induced Alterations in the BRAC1 Mutant Mammary Tumor Microenvironment

Project description:In this study, we conducted single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) studies to investigate the impact of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity on transcriptomic landscapes of stromal and immune cells in mammary glands of Brca1-/-;p53+/- mice, an animal breast cancer model. The scRNA-seq profiling data showed that five different subtypes of stromal fibroblasts existed in mouse mammary glands. HFD-induced obesity led to upregulated expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) genes (Col3a1, Col6a3, Eln, and Sparc) and downregulated expression of immunoregulatory genes (Iigp1, Ccl2, and Cxcl10) in these stromal subtype cells. These findings, taken together, suggest that obesity alters the ECM composition and immune ecosystem through modulating the functionality of mammary stromal cells. Moreover, scRNA-seq analysis of mammary immune cells indicated that HFD-induced obesity promoted the generation and/or recruiting of pro-tumorigenic M2 macrophages in mammary glands.

Intestinal stroma guides monocyte differentiation to macrophages through GM-CSF

Project description:Stroma provides tissues with structural integrity and organization, but its capacity to shape myeloid cells is poorly understood. Here we quantify stromal response to inflammation in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and reveal subset-specific inflammatory responses across colon segments and intestinal layers. Using data from a murine dynamic gut injury model and human ex vivo transcriptomic/protein/spatial analysis, we found that PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts and monocytes/macrophages co-localize in the intestine. Primary human fibroblast-monocyte co-cultures showed that intestinal PDGFRA+CD142-/low fibroblasts foster monocyte transition to CCR2+CD206+ macrophages through granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Monocyte-derived CCR2+CD206+ cells from co-cultures had a phenotype similar to intestinal CCR2+CD206+ macrophages from newly diagnosed pediatric IBD patients, with higher levels of PD-L1 and lower levels of GM-CSF receptor. The study depicts subset-specific changes in stromal response to inflammation and demonstrates the stromal potential to guide intestinal macrophage differentiation.

YFP+PDGFRa+ and YFP+PDGFRa– stromal cells isolated from the small intestine of LTBRfloxedPDGFRa/YFP mice

Project description:After birth, the intestine undergoes major changes to shift from an immature proliferative state to a functional intestinal barrier. By combining inducible lineage tracing and transcriptomics in mouse models, we identify a pro-differentiation PDGFRαHigh intestinal stromal lineage originating from postnatal LTβR+ perivascular stromal progenitors. Genetic blockage of this lineage increased the intestinal stem cells pool while decreasing epithelial and immune maturation at weaning age, leading to reduced postnatal growth and dysregulated repair responses. Ablating PDGFRα in the LTβR stromal lineage demonstrates that PDGFRα has a major impact on the lineage fate and function, inducing a transcriptomic switch from pro-stemness genes such as Rspo3 and Grem1 to pro-differentiation factors including BMPs, retinoic acid and laminins, and on spatial organization within the crypt-villus and repair responses. Our results show that PDGFRα-induced transcriptomic switch in intestinal stromal cells is required in the first weeks after birth to coordinate postnatal intestinal maturation and function.
