Single-cell RNA-seq reveals cell type-specific transcriptional signatures at the maternal-foetal interface during pregnancy.

View SamplesOur goal was to transcriptionally profile Prdm1+ cell lineages of maternal and embryonic origin in mid-gestation mouse placenta in order to study vascular mimicry and additional processes in the placenta. Overall design: Profiling of 61 single cells and 17 clusters of 2 or 3 cells chosen based on expression of Prdm1, a paternally inherited Prdm1-Venus fluorescent reporter, progenitor trophoblast marker Gjb3 and spiral artery trophoblast giant cell marker Prl7b1.

View SamplesIn this study, we characterize transciprtional phenotypes of airway macrophagages (AMs) throughout homeostatsis, inflammation, and repair at single cell granularity. We confirm that cell origin is the major determinant of AM programing and describe two previously uncharacterized, transcriptionally distinct subdivisions of AMs based on proliferative capacity and inflammatory programing. Overall design: We stimulated mice with LPS and then sampled FACs sorted airway macrophage cells using BAL at Days 0, 3, and 6 and sequenced 1,134 cells from these three groups using RNA-seq
Single cell RNA sequencing identifies unique inflammatory airspace macrophage subsets.

Combinatorial Smad2/3 Activities Downstream of Nodal Signaling Maintain Embryonic/Extra-Embryonic Cell Identities during Lineage Priming.

View SamplesEpiblast cells in the early post-implantation stage mammalian embryo undergo a transition described as lineage priming before cell fate allocation, but signaling pathways acting upstream remain ill defined. Genetic studies demonstrate that Smad2/3 double-mutant mouse embryos die shortly after implantation. To learn more about the molecular disturbances underlying this abrupt failure, here we characterised Smad2/3-deificient embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We found that Smad2/3 double-knockout ESCs induced to form epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) display changes in nave and primed pluripotency marker gene expression, associated with the disruption of Oct4-bound distal regulatory element. In the absence of Smad2/3, we observed enhanced Bmp target gene expression and de-repression of extra-embryonic gene expression. Cell fate allocation into all three embryonic germ lakers is disrupted. Collectively, these experiments demonstrate that combinatorial Smad2/3 functional activities are required to maintain distinct embryonic and/or extra-embryonic cell identity during lineage priming in the epiblast before gastrulation.

View SamplesMacrophages (MF) have been shown to contribute to fibrogenesis, however the underlying mechanisms and specific MF subsets involved remain unclear. Lung MF can be divided into two subsets: Siglec-Fhi resident alveolar MF and CD11bhi MF that primarily arise from immigrating monocytes. RNA-seq analysis was performed to compare these MF subsets during fibrosis. CD11bhi MF, not Siglec-Fhi MF, expressed high levels of pro-fibrotic chemokines and growth factors. Overall design: C56BL/6 WT mice were treated intratracheally with bleomycin. 8 days later, CD64+Mertk+ MF were sorted into Siglec-F(high) and CD11b(high) subsets. SiglecF(high) MF from naïve mice were also sorted. RNA was isolated and RNA-seq was performed to compare MF subsets.

Smchd1 regulates a subset of autosomal genes subject to monoallelic expression in addition to being critical for X inactivation.
