Project description:In response to stress, cells activate signaling pathways that coordinate broad changes in gene expression to enhance cell survival. Remarkably, complex variations in gene expression occur even in isogenic populations and in response to similar signaling inputs. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this variability and their influence on adaptive cell fate decisions are not fully understood. Here, we use scRNA-seq to longitudinally assess transcriptional dynamics during osmoadaptation in yeast. Our findings reveal highly heterogeneous expression of the osmoresponsive program, which organizes into combinatorial patterns that generate distinct cellular programs. The induction of these programs is favored by global transcriptome repression upon stress. Cells displaying basal expression of the osmoresponsive program are hyper-responsive and resistant to stress. Through a transcription-focused analysis of more than 300 RNA-barcoded deletion mutants, we identify genetic factors that shape the heterogeneity of the osmostress-induced transcriptome, define regulators of stress-related subpopulations and find a link between transcriptional heterogeneity and increased cell fitness. Our findings provide a regulatory map of the complex transcriptional phenotypes underlying osmoadaptation in yeast and highlight the importance of transcriptional heterogeneity in generating distinct adaptive strategies.

Project description:Adaptive responses of yeast to cell wall stress

Project description:To better understand the roles of SR (calculated from the nascent TR by dividing it by cell volume) (Pérez-Ortín, BioEssays 2013), and mRNA stability in stress adaptation, we investigated the yeast cell wall stress response and compared it with other stress responses using the GRO method. In this study, we analyzed genome-wide changes in RNA abundance to determine how synthesis rates and mRNA stabilization influence RA along the treatment with Congo Red. Our findings indicate that alterations in synthesis rates primarily drive changes in RA, whereas mRNA stability remains largely unaffected under our conditions, in contrast to other stress responses. Additionally, the RA of RP, RiBi, and ESRup genes is influenced by both mRNA stability and SR, albeit to a lesser extent than in other stress conditions. Moreover, we identified: a) a small subset of genes whose mRNA levels are co-regulated by both changes in synthesis rates and mRNA stability; b) previously unidentified genes whose mRNA levels increase in the presence of Congo Red; and c) RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) such as Nab2 and Hrp1 as potential regulators of genes induced in response to cell wall stress.

Project description:we carried out a systematic and quantitative investigation of yeast aging with single-cell resolution through transcriptomic sequencing. We optimized a single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) protocol to quantitatively study the whole transcriptome profiles of single yeast cells at different ages, finding increased cell-to-cell transcriptional variability during aging. The single-cell transcriptome analysis also highlighted key biological processes or cellular components, including oxidation-reduction process, oxidative stress response (OSR), translation, ribosome biogenesis and mitochondrion that underlie aging in yeast. We uncovered a molecular marker of FIT3, indicating the early heterogeneity during aging in yeast. We also analyzed the regulation of transcription factors and further characterized the distinctive temporal regulation of the OSR by YAP1 and proteasome activity by RPN4 during aging in yeast. Overall, our data profoundly reveal early heterogeneity during aging in yeast and shed light on the aging dynamics at the single cell level.

Project description:Adaptive therapies that alternate between drug applications and drug-free vacations can exploit competition between sensitive and resistant cells to maximize the time to progression. However, optimal dosing schedules depend on the properties of metastases, which are often not directly measurable in clinical practice. Here, we proposed a framework for estimating features of metastases through tumor response dynamics during the first adaptive therapy treatment cycle. Longitudinal prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in 16 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer undergoing adaptive androgen deprivation treatment were analyzed to investigate relationships between cycle dynamics and clinical variables such as Gleason score, the change in the number of metastases over a cycle, and the total number of cycles over the course of treatment. The first cycle of adaptive therapy, which consists of a response period (applying therapy until 50% PSA reduction), and a regrowth period (removing treatment until reaching initial PSA levels), delineated several features of the computational metastatic system: larger metastases had longer cycles; a higher proportion of drug-resistant cells slowed the cycles; and a faster cell turnover rate sped up drug response time and slowed regrowth time. The number of metastases did not affect cycle times, as response dynamics were dominated by the largest tumors rather than the aggregate. In addition, systems with higher intermetastasis heterogeneity responded better to continuous therapy and correlated with dynamics from patients with high or low Gleason scores. Conversely, systems with higher intrametastasis heterogeneity responded better to adaptive therapy and correlated with dynamics from patients with intermediate Gleason scores.SignificanceMultiscale mathematical modeling combined with biomarker dynamics during adaptive therapy helps identify underlying features of metastatic cancer to inform treatment decisions.
