Project description:It is elusive whether clonal selection of tumor cells in response to ionizing radiation (IR) is a deterministic or stochastic process. With high resolution clonal barcoding and tracking of over 400.000 HNSCC patient-derived tumor cells the clonal dynamics of tumor cells in response to IR was analysed. Fractionated IR induced a strong selective pressure for clonal reduction. This significantly exceeded uniform clonal survival probabilities indicative for a strong clone-to clone difference within tumor cells. Survival to IR is driven by a deterministic clonal selection of a smaller population which commonly survives radiation, while increased clonogenic capacity is a result of clonal competition of cells which have been selected stochastically. The ratio of these parameters is amenable to radiation sensitivity which correlates to prognostic biomarkers of HNSCC. Evidence for the existence of a rare subpopulation with an intrinsically radiation resistant phenotype was found at a frequency of 0.6-3.3%. With cellular barcoding we introduce a novel functional heterogeneity associated qualitative readout for evaluating the contribution of stochastic and deterministic clonal selection processes in response to IR.

To analyze transcriptomic changes of HNSCC cell lines after fractionated Photon IR (5x4Gy), RNAseq analysis was performed on irradiated cells in comparison to untreated control cells (EBI submission E-MTAB-9693)

Project description:In this study, we present a multiplexed version of Deterministic Barcoding in Tissue (xDBiT) to acquire spatially resolved transcriptomes of nine tissue sections in parallel. New microfluidic chips were developed to spatially encode mRNAs over a total tissue area of 1.17 cm2 with spots of 50 µm×50 µm. Optimization of the biochemical protocol increased read and gene counts per spot by one order of magnitude compared with previous reports. Furthermore, the introduction of alignment markers allows seamless registration of images and spatial transcriptomic spot coordinates. Together with technological advances, we provide an open-source computational pipeline to transform raw sequencing data from xDBiT experiments into the AnnData format. The functionality of xDBiT was demonstrated by the acquisition of 16 spatially resolved transcriptomic datasets from five different murine organs, including cerebellum, liver, kidney, spleen, and heart. Factor analysis and deconvolution of xDBiT spatial transcriptomes allowed for in-depth characterization of the murine kidney.

Project description:Phenotypic heterogeneity in bacteria results from stochastic processes or deterministic genetic programs. These deterministic programs often incorporate the versatile second messenger c-di-GMP, and by deploying c-di-GMP metabolizing enzyme(s) asymmetrically during cell division give rise to daughter cells with different c-di-GMP levels. Here, we identify a deterministic c-di-GMP-dependent genetic program that is hardwired into the cell cycle of Myxococcus xanthus to minimize cellular heterogeneity and guarantee the formation of phenotypically similar daughter cells during division. Cells lacking the diguanylate cyclase DmxA have an aberrant motility behaviour. DmxA is recruited to the cell division site and its activity switched on during cytokinesis, resulting in a dramatic but transient increase in the c-di-GMP concentration. During cytokinesis, this c-di-GMP burst ensures the symmetric incorporation and allocation of structural motility proteins and motility regulators at the new cell poles of the two daughters, thereby generating mirror-symmetric, phenotypically similar daughters with correct motility behaviours. These findings suggest a general c-di-GMP-dependent mechanism for minimizing cellular heterogeneity, and demonstrate that bacteria by deploying c-di-GMP metabolizing enzymes to distinct subcellular locations ensure the formation of dissimilar or similar daughter cells.

Project description:DNA methylation has been comprehensively profiled in normal and cancer cells, but the dynamics that form, maintain and reprogram differentially methylated regions remain enigmatic. We show that methylation patterns within populations of cells from individual somatic tissues are heterogeneous and polymorphic. Using in vitro evolution of immortalized fibroblasts for over 300 generations, we track the dynamics of polymorphic methylation at regions developing significant differential methylation on average. The data indicate that changes in population-averaged methylation occur through a stochastic process that generates a stream of local and uncorrelated methylation aberrations. Despite the stochastic nature of the process, nearly deterministic epigenetic remodeling emerges on average at loci that lose or gain resistance to methylation accumulation. Changes in the susceptibility to methylation accumulation are correlated with changes in histone modifications and CTCF occupancy. Characterizing epigenomic polymorphism within cell populations is therefore critical for understanding methylation dynamics in normal and cancer cells. Gene expression profiled in duplicate throughout the microevolutionary timecourse using Affymetrix Gene 1.0 ST arrays.

Project description:Somatic cells can be directly reprogrammed to pluripotency by exogenous expression of transcription factors, classically Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc. While distinct types of somatic cells can be reprogramed with varying efficiencies and by different modified reprogramming protocols, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) induction remains inefficient and stochastic where a fraction of the cells converts into iPSCs. The nature of rate limiting barrier(s) preventing majority of cells to convert into iPSCs remains elusive. Here we show that neutralizing Mbd3, a core member of the Mbd3/NURD co-repressor and chromatin-remodeling complex, results in deterministic and synchronized reprogramming of multiple differentiated cell types to pluripotency. 100% of Mbd3 depleted mouse and human somatic cells convert into iPSCs after seven days of reprogramming factor induction. Our findings delineate a critical pathway blocking the reestablishment of pluripotency, and offer a novel platform for future dissection of epigenetic dynamics leading to iPSC formation at high resolution. Samples include Mbd3+/+, Mbd3flox/- and Mbd3-/- cells from mouse ES cells and mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) before and after DOX induction (initiating reprogramming by OSKM factors).
