Project description:Prior studies applied single-cell approaches to explore gene expression changes in aged brains; however, they were limited by relatively shallow sampling of brain cell populations, and thus failed to characterize the detailed molecular signatures and dynamics of rare cell types associated with aging and diseases. Here, we set out to investigate the age-dependent transcriptional and chromatin dynamics across diverse brain cell types. With EasySci, an extensively improved single-cell combinatorial indexing strategy, we profiled ~1.5 million single-cell transcriptomes with full gene body coverage and ~400,000 single-cell chromatin accessibility profiles across mouse brains spanning different ages, genotypes, and both sexes. With a novel computational framework designed for characterizing cellular subtypes based on the expression of both genes and exons, we identified > 300 cell subtypes and deciphered the underlying molecular programs and spatial locations of rare cell types (e.g., pinealocytes, tanycytes). Leveraging the data, we generated a global readout of age-dependent cell population dynamics with great cellular subtype resolution, providing insights into expanded cell types (e.g., rare astrocytes and vascular leptomeningeal cells in olfactory bulb, reactive microglia and oligodendrocytes) and depleted cell types (e.g., neuronal progenitors, neuroblasts, committed oligodendrocyte precursors) in development and ageing. Furthermore, we explored cell-type-specific responses to genetic perturbations associated with Alzheimer’s disease and discovered rare cell types depleted (e.g., mt-Cytb+, mt-Rnr2+ choroid plexus epithelial cells) or enriched (e.g., Col25a1+ Ndrg1+ interbrain and midbrain neurons) in both AD models. Key findings are consistent between males and females, validated across the transcriptome, chromatin accessibility, and spatial analysis. In summary, these data comprise a rich resource for exploring cell-type-specific population dynamics and the underlying molecular mechanisms in the mammalian aging process.

Project description:A systems-biology approach connects aging mechanisms with Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis
| PRJNA1089313 | ENA
Project description:Age is the strongest risk factor for developing Alzheimer’s disease, the most common neurodegenerative disorder. However, the mechanisms connecting advancing age to neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease are incompletely understood. We conducted an unbiased, genome-scale, forward genetic screen for age-associated neurodegeneration in Drosophila to identify the underlying biological processes required for maintenance of aging neurons. To connect genetic screen hits to Alzheimer’s disease pathways, we measured proteomics, phosphoproteomics, and metabolomics in Drosophila models of Alzheimer’s disease. We further identified Alzheimer’s disease human genetic variants that modify expression in disease-vulnerable neurons. Through multi-omic, multi-species network integration of these data, we identified relationships between screen hits and tau-mediated neurotoxicity. Furthermore, we computationally and experimentally identified relationships between screen hits and DNA damage in Drosophila and human iPSC-derived neural progenitor cells. Our work identifies candidate pathways that could be targeted to attenuate the effects of age on neurodegeneration and Alzheimer’s disease.

Project description:To elucidate the aging-associated cellular population dynamics throughout the body, here we present PanSci, a single-cell transcriptome atlas profiling over 20 million cells from 623 mouse tissue samples, encompassing a range of organs across different developmental stages, genders, and genotypes. This comprehensive dataset allowed us to identify more than 3,000 unique cellular states and catalog over 200 distinct aging-associated cell populations experiencing significant depletion or expansion. Our panoramic analysis uncovered four distinct, temporally structured aging-related cell population dynamic waves that are organ- and lineage-specific. Moreover, we investigated aging-associated alterations in immune cell populations, revealing both widespread shifts and organ-specific changes. We further explored the regulatory roles of the immune system on aging and pinpointed specific age-related cell population expansions that are lymphocyte-dependent. The breadth and depth of our 'cell-omics' methodology not only enhance our comprehension of cellular aging but also lay the groundwork for exploring the complex regulatory networks among varied cell types in the context of aging and aging-associated diseases.

Project description:Neuroinflammation and activation of innate immunity are pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In contrast, very few studies have examined the impact of the adaptive immune system in AD pathogenesis. In this study, we find that genetic deletion of peripheral immune populations significantly accelerates amyloid pathogenesis, worsens neuroinflammation, and alters microglial activation state. We used microarray analysis to profile gene expression underlying genotype related changes at the cellular level in the context of AD .
