Single-cell RNA-seq reveals the diversity of trophoblast subtypes and patterns of differentiation in the human placenta

ABSTRACT: In this study, we isolated human villous stromal cells (STRs), CTBs, the STB, and EVTs at the first and second trimester of pregnancy and monitored the transcriptome dynamics of 1567 cells at single-cell resolution. We identified 14 subtypes of placental cells and characterized their functions, especially the unexpected secretion of 102 polypeptide hormone using bioinformatics analyses and immnunostaining verifications. Our study builds a strong foundation for understanding how the human placenta develops and functions to maintain a healthy pregnancy.

Sonic Hedgehog inhibitor cyclopamine effect on JAR cells

Project description:Physiologically, trophoblast progenitor cells differentiate into placental villous cytotrophoblast cells (CTBs). CTBs either differentiate into invasive lineage to yields extravillous cytotrophoblast cells (EVTs), or undergo cell fusion lineage to yields syncytiotrophoblast cells (STBs)，Sonic hedgehog (Shh) together with indian hedgehog (Ihh) and desert hedgehog (Dhh) consist of ligand of hedgehog signaling pathway, which plays pivotal roles in regulating cell proliferation, cell differentiation, organogenesis and development, even involving in tumorigenesis and progression. previous study had summarized and indicatedthat hedgehog proteins played important roles in regulating hematopoiesis, vasculogenesis and angiogenesis during embryogenesis and development. Herein, we investigate the effect of the Sonic Hedgehog morphogen inhibitor Cyclopamine on JAR cells

Activation of the interferon pathway in trophoblast cells infected with SARS-CoV-2

Project description:Infection with SARS-CoV-2 in pregnancy has been associated with poor maternal and neonatal outcomes and placental defects. The placenta, which acts as a physical and immunological barrier at the maternal/fetal interface, is not established until the end of the first trimester. Therefore, localized viral infection of the trophoblast compartment early in gestation could trigger an inflammatory response resulting in altered placental function and consequent suboptimal conditions for fetal growth and development. In this study, we investigated the effect of SARS-CoV-2 infection in early gestation placentae using placenta-derived human trophoblast stem cells (TSC), a novel in vitro model, and their extra-villous trophoblast (EVT) and syncytiotrophoblast (STB) derivatives. Consistent with host viral entry protein expression, SARS-CoV-2 was able to productively replicate in TSC-derived STB and EVT but not undifferentiated TSC. Both early EVT and STB elicited an interferon-mediated innate immune response similar to other cells infected with this virus. Therefore, we have also shown that placenta derived TSCs are a robust in vitro model to investigate the effect of this viral infection in the trophoblast compartment of the early placenta. Overall, these results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection in early gestation can adversely affect placental development and that might occur via directly infecting the differentiated trophoblast compartment, thus posing a higher risk for poor pregnancy outcomes.

An improved protocol for targeted differentiation of human iPSCs into HLA-G expressing trophoblasts cells enabling modelling of placenta-related disorders.

Project description:Abnormalities at any stage of trophoblast development may result in pregnancy-related com-plications. Many of these adverse outcomes are discovered later in pregnancy, but the underly-ing pathomechanisms constitute during the first trimester. Acquiring developmentally relevant material to elucidate the disease mechanisms is difficult. Human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) technology can provide a renewable source of relevant cells. BMP4, A83-01, and PD173074 (BAP) treatment drives trophoblast commitment of hPSCs towards syncytiotrophoblast (STB) but lacks extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells. EVTs mediate key functions during placentation, remodel-ing of uterine spiral arteries, and maintenance of immunological tolerance. We optimized the protocol for more efficient generation of HLA-Gpos EVT-like trophoblasts from primed hiPSCs. Increasing the concentrations of A83-01 and PD173074, while decreasing bulk cell density re-sulted in the increase of HLA-G of up to 71%. Gene expression profiling support the advance-ments of our treatment regarding the generation of trophoblast cells. The reported differentia-tion protocol will allow the on-demand access to human trophoblast cells enriched for HLA-Gpos EVT-like cells, allowing the elucidation of placenta-related disorders and to investigate the im-munological tolerance towards the fetus, overcoming the difficulties in obtaining primary EVTs without the need for a complex differentiation pathway via naïve pluripotent or trophoblast stem cells.

Dynamics of Trophoblast Differentiation in Peri-implantation Stage Human Embryos

Project description:Single cell RNA sequencing of cells from cultured human blastocysts has enabled us to define the transcriptomic landscape of placental trophoblast (TB) that surrounds the epiblast and associated embryonic tissues during the enigmatic day (D) 8 to D12 peri-implantation period before the villous placenta forms. We analyzed the transcriptomes of three early placental cell types, cytoTB (CTB), syncytioTB (STB) and migratoryTB (MTB) picked manually from cultured embryos dissociated with trypsin and were able to follow sub-lineages that emerged from proliferating CTB at the periphery of the conceptus. A unique form of CTB with some features of STB was detectable at D8, while mature STB was at its zenith at D10. A form of MTB with a mixed MTB/CTB phenotype arose around D10. By D12, STB generation was in decline, CTB had entered a new phase of proliferation, and mature MTB cells had begun to move from the main body of the conceptus. Notably, the MTB transcriptome at D12 indicated enrichment of transcripts associated with interferon signaling, migration and invasion, and upregulation of HLA-C, HLA-E, and HLA-G. The STB, which is distinct from the STB of later villous STB, had a phenotype consistent with intense protein export and placental hormone production, as well as migration and invasion. The studies show that TB associated with human embryos is in rapid developmental flux during peri-implantation period when it must invade, signal robustly to the mother to ensure that the pregnancy continues, and make first contact with the maternal immune system.

SDHB gene promoter MethylTarget sequencing of normal pregnancy and recurrent spontaneous abortion patients

Project description:Our study found that low SDHB expression and high succinate levels are important for maintaining embryo implantation in the first trimester; therefore, high SDHB expression and low succinate levels during early pregnancy may increase the risk of RSA. To investigate why villous SDHB expression increases pathologically in RSA but exhibits dynamically low levels during the first trimester followed by high levels under physiological conditions, we detected CpG site methylation levels in the SDHB promoter region of villi from both individuals with RSA and controls.

Single-nucleus multi-omic profiling of human placental syncytiotrophoblasts identifies cellular trajectories during pregnancy [placenta-ncbi-cell-line_scRNA-seq_snRNA-seq]

Project description:The human placenta plays vital roles in ensuring a successful pregnancy. Despite the growing body of knowledge about its cellular compositions and functions, however, there has been limited research on the heterogeneity of the billions of nuclei within the syncytiotrophoblast (STB), a multinucleated entity primarily responsible for placental function. Here, we conducted integrated snRNA-seq and snATAC-seq on human placentas from early and late pregnancy. Our findings demonstrate the dynamic heterogeneity and developmental trajectories of STB nuclei and their presence in human trophoblast stem cells (hTSCs)-derived STB. Furthermore, we identified transcription factor (TF) motifs that are biased towards diverse STB nuclear lineages through their associated gene regulatory networks. The role of these TFs in STB differentiation were confirmed in the hTSCs- and trophoblast organoid-derived STB. Together, our data provide valuable insights into the heterogeneity of human STB and represents a valuable resource for interpreting its associated pregnancy complications.
