Use of the Fluidigm C1 platform for RNA sequencing of single mouse pancreatic islet cells

ABSTRACT: This study provides an assessment of the Fluidigm C1 platform for RNA sequencing of single mouse pancreatic islet cells. The system combines microfluidic technology and nanoliter-scale reactions. We sequenced 622 cells allowing identification of 341 islet cells with high-quality gene expression profiles. The cells clustered into populations of alpha-cells (5%), beta-cells (92%), delta-cells (1%) and PP-cells (2%). We identified cell-type specific transcription factors and pathways primarily involved in nutrient sensing and oxidation and cell signaling. Unexpectedly, 281 cells had to be removed from the analysis due to low viability (23%), low sequencing quality (13%) or contamination resulting in the detection of more than one islet hormone (64%). Collectively, we provide a resource for identification of high-quality gene expression datasets to help expand insights into genes and pathways characterizing islet cell types. We reveal limitations in the C1 Fluidigm cell capture process resulting in contaminated cells with altered gene expression patterns. This calls for caution when interpreting single-cell transcriptomics data using the C1 Fluidigm system.

Fluidigm C1 + Illumina HiSeq quantitative whole transcriptome analysis of unsorted population of E16.5 lung cells

Project description:We used microfluidic single cell RNA-seq on mixed e16.5 mouse lung cells in order to determine the potential cell types present based on differential transcriptional profiles of the entire population using minimal cell selection bias. whole lung mouse e16.5 cells were pooled and loaded onto the Fluidigm C1 device. microwells that contained intact single cells were recorded, the labchip was processed for the generation of cDNA from each cell, and cDNA generated from each accepted well was used to generate amplified and barcoded DNA library that was loaded into an Iluumina HiSeq machine for HTS analysis.

Fluidigm single-cell RNA-seq analysis for gene signatures associated with T-cell persistence

Project description:A patient (4095) with metastatic colorectal cancer was treated with polyclonal tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) targeting the KRAS(G12D) hotspot mutation. Three dominant clonotypes specifically recognizing KRAS(G12D) epitopes were identified, but we found that only two clonotypes persisted 40 days after TIL treatment. Because of these findings, in this study, we performed single-cell RNA-seq analysis for the TILs isolated from this patient. This single-cell dataset is generated using a Fluidigm C1 system, followed by a Illumina HiSeq2500 sequencer.

Single-cell RNA-seq investigation of skin and blood T cells from patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma

Project description:Capture and processing of single skin and blood T cells was performed using the Fluidigm C1 Autoprep system. Cells were loaded at a concentration of 2,000 cells/µL onto C1 integrated fluidic circuit chips for 5–10-µm cells. All C1 capture sites were microscopically inspected to identify the sites that contained only a single cell. Empty sites and those with multiple cells were excluded from further analysis. External RNA Controls Consortium spike-in RNAs served as a control. The SMARTer® Ultra® Low RNA Kit (Clontech) was used for reverse transcription and cDNA pre-amplification. The single-cell cDNA products from each cell were then used to prepare Illumina sequencing libraries and sequenced as paired-end 150-base reads on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform. Quality control was performed using FastQC v. 0.11.7 (Babraham Bioinformatics), and the adaptors and low-quality bases with a Phred quality score <20 were trimmed from the ends of the reads using Trim Galore v. 0.4.4 (Babraham Bioinformatics)
