A flexible enrichment strategy for the isolation and single-cell characterization of disease-specific circulating tumor cells

ABSTRACT: Background: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cells that have broken off from a primary solid tumor, entered the blood stream, and have the potential to metastasize to nearby tissues. Thus, CTCs represent an important biomarker to monitor cancer progression and patient outcome. The isolation, identification and characterization of CTCs are critical for this goal. We previously developed a method for the detection and isolation of melanoma CTCs from peripheral blood through negative and positive antibody enrichment. Methods: Here we show that this protocol is easily applied to other cancers; in this case we expand and validate this method to include prostate cancer. Results: We show that this combined negative and positive enrichment protocol successfully isolates CTCs for characterization using single cell RNA sequencing and have updated the protocol to include a newer version of single cell library preparation, Smart-seq3. In our analysis, cells prepared for sequencing with Smart-seq3, which uses unique molecular identifiers (UMIs), showed no considerable difference compared to those prepared using the previous iteration of the protocol, Smart-seq2. Conclusion: This study demonstrates a robust and flexible method for the isolation and characterization of CTCs from various cancers for potential use as biomarkers for disease management and for characterization with single cell RNA-seq.

Single-cell sequencing of full-length transcripts and T-cell receptors with automated high-throughput Smart-seq3 [Bulk]

Project description:We developed an automated high-throughput Smart-seq3 (HT Smart-seq3) workflow via robotic implementation and established best practices to consistently achieve high cell capture efficiency and data quality. In comparison with the 10X platform, HT Smart-seq3 analysis of primary CD4+ T-cells demonstrated superior sensitivity in gene detection and similar capability to capture major cellular heterogeneity upon sufficient scaling up. Notably, through T-cell receptor (TCR) reconstruction, HT Smart-seq3 identified more productive pairs of alpha and beta chains without additional primer design, enabling more comprehensive profiling of TCRs. Collectively, HT Smart-seq3 provides a cost-effective and scalable method for characterization of single-cell transcriptomes and immune repertoires.

scNMT-seq of pancreatic organoids - RNA

Project description:Single-cell nucleosome, methylome and transcriptome (scNMT) sequencing is a recently developed method that allows multiomics profiling of single cells. In this scNMT protocol, we describe profiling of cells from mouse brain and pancreatic organoids, using liquid handling platforms to increase throughput from 96-well to 384-well plate format. Our approach miniaturizes reaction volumes and incorporates the latest Smart-seq3 protocol to obtain a higher number of detected genes and genomic DNA (gDNA) CpG sites per cell. We outline normalization steps to optimally distribute per-cell sequencing depth.

Single-cell RNA sequencing with molecular spikes to determine RNA counting accuracy

Project description:Molecule counting is central to single-cell sequencing, yet no experimental strategy to evaluate counting performance exist. Here, we introduce RNA spike-ins containing inbuilt unique molecular identifiers (molecular spikes) that we use to monitor single-cell RNA counting performance across methods and to identify experimental steps essential for accurate counting. In this dataset, we add molecular spikes to popular single-cell RNA-seq protocols: SCRB-seq, Smart-seq3 and 10x Genomics (v2). For SCRB-seq and Smart-seq3, we also include variations of the library preparation procedure that are suspected to lead to changes in the UMI counting accuracy.

Sequencing Universal Human Reference RNA by Smart-seq and early barcoding library preparation methods

Project description:Many library preparation methods are available for gene expression quantification. Here, we sequenced and analysed Universal Human Reference RNA (UHRR) prepared using Smart-Seq2, TruSeq (public data) and a protocol using unique molecular identifiers (UMIs) that all include the ERCC spike-in mRNAs to investigate the effects of amplification bias on expression quantification.

Single-cell RNA counting at allele- and isoform-resolution using Smart-seq3

Project description:Large-scale sequencing of RNAs from individual cells can reveal patterns of gene, isoform and allelic expression across cell types and states. However, current single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods have limited ability to count RNAs at allele- and isoform resolution, and long-read sequencing techniques lack the depth required for large-scale applications across cells. Here, we introduce Smart-seq3 that combines full-length transcriptome coverage with a 5’ unique molecular identifier (UMI) RNA counting strategy that enabled in silico reconstruction of thousands of RNA molecules per cell. Importantly, a large portion of counted and reconstructed RNA molecules could be directly assigned to specific isoforms and allelic origin, and we identified significant transcript isoform regulation in mouse strains and human cell types. Moreover, Smart-seq3 showed a dramatic increase in sensitivity and typically detected thousands more genes per cell than Smart-seq2. Altogether, we developed a short-read sequencing strategy for single-cell RNA counting at isoform and allele-resolution applicable to large-scale characterization of cell types and states across tissues and organisms.

Efficient Propagation of Circulating Tumor Cells: A First Step for Probing Tumor Metastasis.

Project description:Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) from metastatic breast cancer patients were harvested and grown in vitro for 30+ days in a novel short-term culture method. Additionally, RNA from the buffy coat of 5 healthy donors were sequenced and subjected to culture conditions; 0/5 cultures successfully grew. This new culture method is highly efficient and allows for the molecular characterization of CTCs and identification of potential targets for therapy against tumor metastasis. Using this method, we established 12/12 cultures of CTCs.
