Project description:aSMA identifies osteochondroprogenitors in the periosteum involved in fracture callus formation. Cell surface marker expression, histological analysis, and lineage tracing data indicate that this is a heterogeneous population that contains a subset of self-renewing stem or progenitor cells. The goal of this study was to evaluate the heterogeneity of the initial cell population labeled using plate-based single cell RNAseq, and see if that changed following up to 13 weeks of chase.
Project description:To delineate the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the communication between neutrophils and NK cells, we performed scRNAseq of the neutropenic bone marrow (12 months after transplantation of Cebpacre/+ Sbds +/+ or F/F cells). To this end, bone marrow cells were subsorted into HSC+MPP (LKS CD48-), HPC1 (LKS CD48+CD150-), B and T cells (B220+, CD3+), NK cells (NK1.1+ NKp46+) and a myeloid ‘rest’ fraction (B220-,CD3-,NKp46- and NK1.1-) and sorted fractions pooled together to obtain robust representation of all bone marrow cell types in the scRNAseq data
Project description:scRNAseq of monocytes from in vitro Trained immunity experiments stimulated by β-glucan (BG), uric acid (UA), muramyl dipeptide (MDP), oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), or RPMI-Control, and respective samples restimulated with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
Project description:Adult zebrafish hearts have the ability to regenerate. The roles of non-myocytes in this process have remained elusive. Here, we have performed 2 scRNAseq experiments on interstitial cells. Experiment 1 (E1) included interstitial cells obtained from uninjured, regenerating (3 days, 7 days and 14 days post-apical amputation). Experiment 2 (E2) included cells from uninjured, sham-operated (abdomen opened) and regenerating (3 days post-amputation) with and without MMP inhibitor (NSC40520) treatment. Cells were obtained by heart dissection followed by enzymatic dissociation and FACS sorting of single, viable nucleated cells.
