Project description:This resource comprises a single-cell multi-lineage map of first trimester infected placental cells. We have included data from both uninfected cells and cells infected with three pathogens known to cause maternal and fetal disorders: Plasmodium falciparum, Listeria monocytogenes, and Toxoplasma gondii. We also generated single-nuclei map of infected trophoblasts and their corresponding controls. Furthermore, we created a single-nuclei reference dataset containing information from uninfected primary placental organoids as well as organoids infected with P. falciparum. Additionally, we conducted sequencing at a single-cell level for P. falciparum parasites that were bound to the placenta (pf_b), parasites unbound to the placenta (pf_nb), and parasites that were cultured in vitro (pf_iv).
Project description:Single nuclei RNA-sequencing of the mouse placenta at four developmental stages (E9.5, E10.5, E12.5, E14.5). Supplementary files include the expression matrices for the integrated datasets containing nuclei from E9.5, E10.5, E12.5, and E14.5 and the clustering annotations for either all nuclei (AllStages_AllNuclei) or subclustered trophoblast nuclei (AllStages_TrophoblastNuclei). Processed data as R objects for both AllStages_AllNuclei and AllStages_TrophoblastNuclei are available at https://figshare.com/projects/Single_nuclei_RNA-seq_of_mouse_placental_labyrinth_development/92354
Project description:We report RNA-seq of single nuclei isolated from the adult C57BL/6 male mouse Hippocampus region. Majority of the nuclei were isolated from 12 weeks old mice (4 different animal), with an additional set of nuclei from 3 months and 2 years old animals. In addition a set of GFP labeled nuclei driven by a VGAT promoter . Microdissections of dentate gyrus, CA1 and CA2/3 regions of the Hippocampus were placed into ice-cold RNA-later for fixation and stored at 4âc overnight, then stored in -80âc. Nuclei were isolated by sucrose gradient centrifugation and kept on ice until sorting using Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) into 96 well plates containing RNA lysis buffer. Single nucleus RNA was first purified then derived cDNA libraries were generated following a modified Smart-seq2 protocol. For VGAT nuclei: high titer AAV1/2 of pAAV-EF1a-DIO-EYFP-KASH-WPRE-hGH-polyA was injected into dorsal and/or ventral Hippocampus, animals were sacrificed two weeks after injections, and GFP labeled nuclei were sorted into plates and processed as described above.

Project description:This study investigated gene expression of placental cells in a mouse model lacking Caveolin 1 (Cav1). Single-nuclei RNA-seq was performed with day-15 placenta of WT and Cav1-null mice.
Project description:To characterise the transcriptome of mouse placental junctional zone cells in Control litters (deletion of the maternally-inherited and silent Igf2 allele, with normal Igf2 levels in whole litters) in UE litters (dams carried offspring with a deletion of the paternally-inherited Igf2 allele in the placental endocrine cells with diminished Igf2 production from the endocrine cells in whole litters), we performed single nucleus RNA sequencing on the placenta Junctional zone 8 Control placentas (offspring sex: 4M:4F) and 8 UE placentas (offspring sex: 4M:4F) in 2 batches each.
Project description:An important question for the use of the mouse as a model for studying human disease is the degree of functional conservation of genetic control pathways from human to mouse. The human and mouse placenta show structural similarities but there have been no systematic attempt to assess their molecular similarities or differences. We built a comprehensive database of protein and microarray data for the highly vascular exchange region micro-dissected from the human and mouse placenta near-term. Abnormalities in this region are associated with two of the most common and serious complications of human pregnancy, maternal preeclampsia (PE) and fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), each disorder affecting ~5% of all pregnancies. Over 7,000 orthologs were detected with 70% co-expressed and over 80% of genes known to cause placental phenotypes in mouse were co-expressed. These genes form a tight protein-protein interaction network with novel candidate genes likely to be important in placental structure and/or function. The entire data is available as a web-accessible database to guide the informed development of mouse models to study human disease This experiment is now fully represented in NCBI Peptidome database with accession PSE115; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/peptidome/search/index.shtml?acc=PSE115 Microdissection of human villous trees and mouse placental labyrinth. Tissues were split for microarray and protein analysis. For protein analysis samples were first fractionated by differential sucrose gradients into mitochrondria, cytosol, microsomes and nuclei. Mitochrondira and neuclei were each extracted by two different methods for soluble and insoluble material. Each subcellular fraction for each tissue was analysed in quintuplet by 9 step 2 dimensional LC/MSMS. This generated a total of 270 mzXML files for each tissue.
