Genome-wide RNA tomography in the zebrafish embryo

ABSTRACT: Advancing our understanding of embryonic development is heavily dependent on identification of novel pathways or regulators. While genome-wide techniques such as RNA sequencing are ideally suited for discovering novel candidate genes, they are unable to yield spatially resolved information in embryos or tissues. Microscopy-based approaches, using for example in situ hybridization, can provide spatial information about gene expression, but are limited to analyzing one or a few genes at a time. Here, we present a method where we combine traditional histological techniques with low-input RNA sequencing and mathematical image reconstruction to generate a high-resolution genome-wide 3D atlas of gene expression in the zebrafish embryo at three developmental stages. We also demonstrate that our technique is suitable for spatially-resolved differential expression analysis in wildtype and Gli3 mutant mouse forelimbs. Importantly, our method enables searching for genes that are expressed in specific spatial patterns without manual image annotation. We envision broad applicability of RNA tomography as an accurate and sensitive approach for spatially resolved transcriptomics in whole embryos and dissected organs.

We envision broad applicability of RNA tomography as an accurate and sensitive approach for spatially resolved transcriptomics in whole embryos and dissected organs. To generate spatially-resolved RNA-seq data for zebrafish embryos (shield stage, 10 somites, 15 somites, 18 somites) and mouse forelimbs (E10.5), we cryosectioned samples, extracted RNA from the individual sections, and amplified and barcoded mRNA using the CEL-seq protocol (Hashimshony et al., Cell Reports, 2012) with a few modifications. Libraries were sequenced on Illumina HiSeq 2500 using 50bp paired end sequencing. Selected zebrafish libraries were sequenced on MiSeq 250bp paired-end to improve 3' annotations.

Spatial-CUT&Tag: Spatially resolved chromatin modification profiling at the cellular level

Project description:Spatial omics emerged as a new frontier of biological and biomedical research. Here, we present spatial-CUT&Tag for spatially resolved genome-wide profiling of histone modifications by combining in situ CUT&Tag chemistry, microfluidic deterministic barcoding, and next-generation sequencing. Spatially resolved chromatin states in mouse embryos revealed tissue-type-specific epigenetic regulations in concordance with ENCODE references and provide spatial information at tissue scale. Spatial-CUT&Tag revealed epigenetic control of the cortical layer development and spatial patterning of cell types determined by histone modification in mouse brain. Single-cell epigenomes can be derived in situ by identifying 20-micrometer pixels containing only one nucleus using immunofluorescence imaging. Spatial chromatin modification profiling in tissue may offer new opportunities to study epigenetic regulation, cell function, and fate decision in normal physiology and pathogenesis.

Deep Visual Proteomics defines single-cell identity and heterogeneity

Project description:Despite the availabilty of imaging-based and mass-spectrometry-based methods for spatial proteomics, a key challenge remains connecting images with single-cell-resolution protein abundance measurements. Here we introduce Deep Visual Proteomics (DVP), which combines artificial-intelligence-driven image analysis of cellular phenotypes with automated single-cell or single-nucleus laser microdissection and ultra-high-sensitivity mass spectrometry. DVP links protein abundance to complex cellular or subcellular phenotypes while preserving spatial context. By individually excising nuclei from cell culture, we classified distinct cell states with proteomic profiles defined by known and uncharacterized proteins. In an archived primary melanoma tissue, DVP identified spatially resolved proteome changes as normal melanocytes transition to fully invasive melanoma, revealing pathways that change in a spatial manner as cancer progresses, such as mRNA splicing dysregulation in metastatic vertical growth that coincides with reduced interferon signaling and antigen presentation. The ability of DVP to retain precise spatial proteomic information in the tissue context has implications for the molecular profiling of clinical samples.

Spatially resolved epigenomic profiling of single cells in complex tissues

Project description:The recent development of spatial omics enables single-cell profiling of the transcriptome and the 3D organization of the genome in a spatially resolved manner. A spatial epigenomics method would expand the repertoire of spatial omics tools and accelerate our understanding of the spatial regulation of cellular processes and tissue functions. Here, we developed an imaging approach for spatially resolved profiling of epigenetic modifications in single cells

Multimodal Coregistration and Fusion between Spatial Metabol-omics and Biomedical Imaging

Project description:Spatial omics are increasingly "fused" with classical biomedical imaging modalities to complement them with spatially-resolved molecular profiling, enabling deeper understanding of the biochemical basis of health and diesease. Before the multimodal information can be fused, all contributing imaging data must be spatially aligned through a process called coregistration, which remains a challenge. Here we present a multimodal coregistration framework with great genericity and accuracy for spatial omics data. Specifically, an original dimension reduction algorithm "PseudoRep" is used to bridge cross-modal gaps: PseudoRep can generate a single-channel representation of the highly multiplexed molecular image from spatial omics and ensure that the resulting representation appears "pseudo-unimodal" to the image from the other modality. Then, a Deep Learning-based transformation algorithm "DeepReg" is adopted to accurately model nonlinear tissue deformations due to anatomical variations or sample manipulations. Our method demonstrated its versatility by coregistering mass spectrometry imaging-mediated spatial metabolomics data with diverse modalities (magnetic resonance imaging, brain atlas, microscopy, and spatial transcriptomics) and reduced 38\%\textemdash69\% of coregistration errors compared to existing methods. Notably, we open-source a toolbox to implement both the coregistration and its downstream tasks (co-expression analysis, anatomical annotation, and pansharpening), which is expected to greatly facilitate the democratization of multimodal fusion studies in the spatial omics community.

RAINBOW-seq to capture the spatial transcriptome of bacterial biofilm

Project description:We developed a spatially resolved method to profile the spatial transcriptome of biofilm. In detail, we used fluorescent dyes to label the different regions of biofilm cultured in a microfluidic chip. After staining, the bacterial cells in biofilm were sorted into relevant bins according to their spatial information marked by the fluorescent pattern. Finally, miniBac-seq (RNA-seq) method was applied to capture the transcriptome of each bin.

Spatial Transcriptomics correlated Electron Microscopy [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Current spatial transcriptomics methods identify cell types and states in a spatial context but lack morphological information. Electron microscopy, in contrast, provides structural details at nanometer resolution without decoding the diverse cellular states and identity. STEM address this limitation by correlating multiplexed error-robust FISH with electron microscopy from adjacent tissue sections. Using STEM to characterize demyelinated lesions in mice, we were able to bridge spatially resolved transcriptional data with morphological information on cell identities. This approach allowed us to link the morphology of foamy microglia and interferon-response microglia with their transcriptional signatures.

A framework for ultra-low input spatial tissue proteomics

Project description:Spatial tissue proteomics combining microscopy-based cell phenotyping with ultrasensitive mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics is an emerging and powerful concept for the study of cell function and heterogeneity in health and disease. However, optimized workflows that preserve morphological information for image-based phenotype discovery and maximize proteome coverage of few or even single cells from laser microdissected archival tissue, are currently lacking. Here, we report a robust and scalable workflow for the proteomic analysis of ultra-low input formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) material. Benchmarking in the murine liver resulted in up to 2,000 quantified proteins from single hepatocyte contours and nearly 5,000 proteins from 50-cell regions with high quantitative reproducibility. Applied to human tonsil, we profiled 146 microregions including spatially defined T and B lymphocyte niches and quantified cell-type specific markers, cytokines, immune cell regulators and transcription factors. These rich data also highlighted proteome dynamics in spatially defined zones of activated germinal centers, illuminating sites undergoing active B-cell proliferation and somatic hypermutation. Our results demonstrate the power of spatially-resolved proteomics for tissue phenotyping by integrating high-content imaging, laser microdissection, and ultrasensitive mass spectrometry. This approach has broad implications for a wide range of biomedical applications, including early disease profiling, drug target discovery and biomarker research.
