View SamplesPurpose: We performed a time-course single-cell RNA-seq of the somatic cells of the XX mouse gonads to study the cell population heterogeneity and the genetic program during their differentiation. Methods: We collected gonads from NR5A1-eGFP transgenic embryos at six embryonic stages: E10.5, E11.5, E12.5, E13.5, E16.5 and P6. Methods: Cells were capture with the C1 autoprep system and cDNA sequenced with Illumina HiSeq 2000. Results: One cell population was detected at E10.5 and give rise to both Granulosa and steroidogenic precursor cells. A precursor cell population remains undifferentiated at P6 and are likely to be theca cell precursors. Conclusion: Our study is, to date, the most granular transcriptomic study of the developing mouse ovary and provide a more complete model of somatic cell differentiation during female sex determination. Overall design: 663 cells were collected in total. 71 cells at E10.5, 106 cells at E11.5, 164 cells at E12.5, 106 cells at E13.5, 95 cells at E16.5, and 121 at P6. We performed two independent captures for each embryonic stage to reach a reasonable number of cells except for E10.5 where we capture enough cells in one experiment.

View SamplesOur study revealed that hypoxia inducible factor 2 alpha, Hif2 alpha, is a downstream target of estrogen signaling in mouse uterine stroma at the time of implantation. Further, conditional deletion of Hif2 alpha in mouse uterus leads to infertility due to impaired epithelial remodeling at the time of implantation.

View SamplesThe Arabidopsis thaliana transcription factor LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES (LOB) is expressed in the boundary between the shoot apical meristem and initiating lateral organs. To identify genes regulated by LOB activity, we used an inducible 35S:LOB-GR line. This analysis identified genes that are differentially expressed in response to ectopic LOB activity.

View SamplesWe evaluated gene expression changes in murine leukemia caused by retroviral overexpression of MLL-AF9. We compared wild-type (WT) leukemia cells with mutant leukemia cells after cre-mediated inactivation of homozygous conditional alleles for Ezh2 or Eed, both of which are components of the Polycomb Repressive Complex2.

View SamplesWe evaluated gene expression changes in secondary recipient murine leukemia caused by retroviral overexpression of MLL-AF9. We compared wild-type (WT) leukemia cells with mutant leukemia cells after cre-mediated inactivation of a homozygous conditional allele for Ezh2, a component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex2.

View SamplesThe undifferentiated spermatogonial population of mouse testis is known to be functionally heterogeneous and contain both stem cells and committed progenitor cells. However, gene expression patterns marking these distinct cell fractions are poorly defined. We found that a subset of undifferentiated spermatogonia were marked by expression of a PDX1-GFP transgene but properties of these cells were unclear. Undifferentiated cells were therefore isolated from adult testes and separated according to expression of PDX1-GFP+ for gene expression analysis by RNA-seq. Our goal was to identify differentially expressed genes from PDX1-GFP+ vs PDX1-GFP- with that of known markers of stem and committed progenitor cells. Overall design: 4 independent sets of PDX1-GFP-positive and PDX1-GFP-negative undifferentiated spermatogonia were isolated by flow sorting from adult mouse testes.

View SamplesWe generated single-cell transcriptomes from a large number of single cells using several commercially available platforms, in both microliter and nanoliter volumes, and compared performance between them. We benchmarked each method to conventional RNA-seq of the same sample using bulk total RNA, as well as to multiplexed qPCR, which is the current gold standard for quantitative single-cell gene expression analysis. In doing so, we were able to systematically evaluate the sensitivity, precision, and accuracy of various approaches to single-cell RNA-seq. Our results show that it is possible to use single-cell RNA-seq to perform quantitative transcriptome measurements of individual cells, that it is possible to obtain quantitative and accurate gene expression measurements with a relatively small number of sequencing reads, and that when such measurements are performed on large numbers of cells, one can recapitulate the bulk transcriptome complexity, and the distributions of gene expression levels found by single-cell qPCR. Overall design: 109 single-cell human transcriptomes were analyzed in total; 96 using nanoliter volume sample processing on a microfluidic platform, Nextera library prep (biological replicates); 3 using the SMARTer cDNA synthesis kit, Nextera library prep (biological replicates); 3 using the Transplex cDNA synthesis kit, Nextera library prep (biological replicates); 7 using the Ovation Nugen cDNA synthesis kit (biological replicates) where 3 used Nextera library prep and 4 used NEBNext library prep. In addition, 4 bulk RNA samples were sequenced: bulk RNA generated using ~1 million pooled cells was used to make bulk libraries, 2 of which were made using SMARTer cDNA synthesis kit (technical replicates) and 2 made using Superscript RT kit with no amplification (technical replicates). All 4 bulk samples were made into libraries using Nextera.

View SamplesCDKN1B (p27) was formally established as a tumor suppressor gene (tsg) following the identification of inactivating germline mutations in rats (MENX syndrome) and patients (MEN4 syndrome) developing multiple neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). MENX-affected rats are homozygous for the predisposing p27 mutation, suggesting a canonical tsg function. In contrast, mice heterozygous for a defective Cdkn1b allele are already predisposed to tumor formation (haploinsufficiency). We here report that heterozygous mutant rats (p27+/mut) develop the same NETs seen in the homozygous (p27mut/mut) animals but with slower progression. In the tumors of p27+/mut rats, the wild-type allele is neither lost nor silenced, implying that p27 is haploinsufficient for tumor suppression also in this model.
