Skeletal muscle repair is driven by the coordinated self-renewal and fusion of myogenic stem and progenitor cells. Single-cell gene expression analyses of myogenesis have been hampered by the poor sampling of rare and transient cell states that are critical for muscle repair, and do not inform the spatial context that is important for myogenic differentiation. Here, we demonstrate how large-scale integration of single-cell and spatial transcriptomic data can overcome these limitations. We created a single-cell transcriptomic dataset of mouse skeletal muscle by integration, consensus annotation, and analysis of 23 newly collected scRNAseq datasets and 88 publicly available single-cell (scRNAseq) and single-nucleus (snRNAseq) RNA-sequencing datasets. The resulting dataset includes more than 365,000 cells and spans a wide range of ages, injury, and repair conditions. Together, these data enabled identification of the predominant cell types in skeletal muscle, and resolved cell subtypes, in...

This study aims to use spatial transcriptomics to characterize the cell-type-specific expression profile associated with the microscopic features observed in Wooden Breast myopathy. 1 cm3 muscle sample was dissected from the cranial part of the right pectoralis major muscle from three randomly sampled broiler chickens at 23 days post-hatch and processed with Visium Spatial Gene Expression kits (10X Genomics), followed by high-resolution imaging and sequencing on the Illumina Nextseq 2000 system. WB classification was based on histopathologic features identified. Sequence reads were aligned to the chicken reference genome (Galgal6) and mapped to histological images. Unsupervised K-means clustering and Seurat integrative analysis differentiated histologic features and their specific gene expression pattern, including lipid laden macrophages (LLM), unaffected myofibers, myositis and vasculature. In particular, LLM exhibited reprogramming of lipid metabolism with up-regulated lipid transporters and genes in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors pathway, possibly through P. Moreover, overexpression of fatty acid binding protein 5 could enhance fatty acid uptake in adjacent veins. In myositic regions, increased expression of cathepsins may play a role in muscle homeostasis and repair by mediating lysosomal activity and apoptosis. A better knowledge of different cell-type interactions at early stages of WB is essential in developing a comprehensive understanding.

In the context of the Human Cell Atlas, we have created a single-cell-driven taxonomy of cell types and states in human tonsils. This repository contains the Seurat objects derived from this effort. In particular, we have datasets for each modality (scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, CITE-seq, spatial transcriptomics), as well as cell type-specific datasets. Most importantly, this is the input that we used to create the HCATonsilData package, which allows programmatic access to all this datasets within R.

Version 2 of this repository includes cells from 7 additional donors, which we used as a validation cohort to validate the cell types and states defined in the atlas. In addition, in this version we also provide the Seurat object associated with the spatial transcriptomics data (10X Visium), as well as the fragments files for scATAC-seq and Multiome

Understanding human cardiac development is essential to improving the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects. This dataset is part of a multi-modal atlas of the developing human fetal heart during the critical first trimester. Using single-nucleus RNA sequencing, we sampled nearly 50,000 cardiac nuclei from three human fetuses at 8.6, 9.0, and 10.7 post-conceptional weeks (pcw). This dataset enabled distinction of 21 cell types, including novel contractile, conductive, and stromal cells. Lymphatic endothelial, epicardial and autonomic neural and glial cells were among the new, smaller populations for which we established high-resolution transcriptional profiles. This is the *.rds file of the cells from all three hearts generated after Seurat-based integration and analysis in R.This dataset is part of a greater project also comprising spatial transcriptomics, anatomy, histology, in situ hybridization and 2D and 3D immunofluorescence, most of which is also present on Figshare. The count matrices and the raw sequencing data for the spatial transcriptomics and this dataset will be available on GEO shortly.This publication is part of the Human Cell Atlas. https://www.humancellatlas.org/publications/

Seurat object for the spatial transcriptomic data of sample HCM1268A

Skeletal muscle regeneration relies on the orchestrated interaction of myogenic and non-myogenic cells with spatial and temporal coordination. The regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle declines with aging due to alterations in myogenic stem/progenitor cell states and functions, non-myogenic cell contributions, and systemic changes, all of which accrue with age. A holistic network-level view of the cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic changes influencing muscle stem/progenitor cell contributions to muscle regeneration across the lifespan remains poorly resolved. To provide a comprehensive atlas of regenerative muscle cell states across mouse lifespan, we collected a compendium of 273,923 single-cell transcriptomes from hindlimb muscles of young, old, and geriatric (4-7, 20, and 26 months old, respectively) mice at six closely sampled time-points following myotoxin injury. We identified 29 muscle-resident cell types, eight of which exhibited accelerated or delayed dynamics in their abundances between age groups, including T and NK cells and multiple macrophage subtypes, suggesting that the age-related decline in muscle repair may arise from temporal miscoordination of the inflammatory response. We performed a pseudotime analysis of myogenic cells across the regeneration timespan and found age-specific myogenic stem/progenitor cell trajectories in old and geriatric muscles. Given the critical role that cellular senescence plays in limiting cell contributions in aged tissues, we built a series of tools to bioinformatically identify senescence in these single-cell data and assess their ability to identify senescence within key myogenic stages. By comparing single-cell senescence scores to co-expression of hallmark senescence genes Cdkn2a and Cdkn1a, we found that an experimentally derived gene list derived from a muscle foreign body response (FBR) fibrosis model accurately (receiver-operator curve AUC = 0.82-0.86) identified senescent-like myogenic cells across mouse ages, injury time-points, and cell-cycle states, in a manner comparable to curated gene-lists. Further, this scoring approach in both single-cell and spatial transcriptomic datasets pinpointed transitory senescent-like subsets within the myogenic stem/progenitor cell trajectory that are associated with stalled MuSC self-renewal states across all ages of mice. This new resource on mouse skeletal muscle aging provides a comprehensive portrait of the changing cellular states and interactions underlying skeletal muscle regeneration across the mouse lifespan. Methods Mouse muscle injury and single-cell isolation. The Cornell University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) approved all animal protocols (approval # 2014-0085), and experiments were performed in compliance with its institutional guidelines. Mice were maintained at 70-73°F on a 14/10-h light/dark with humidity mainly at 40%. Muscle injury was induced in young (4-7 months-old [mo]), old (20 mo), and geriatric (26 mo) C57BL/6J mice (Jackson Laboratory # 000664; NIA Aged Rodent Colonies) by injecting both tibialis anterior (TA) muscles with 10 µl of notexin (10 µg/ml; Latoxan, France). The mice were sacrificed, and TA muscles were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3.5, 5, and 7 days post-injury (dpi) with n = 3-4 biological replicates per sample. Each TA was processed independently to generate single-cell suspensions. At each time point, the young and old samples are biological replicates of TA muscles from distinct mice, and the geriatric samples are biological replicates of two TA muscles from each of the two mice. A mixture of male and female mice was used. See Supplemental Table 1 for additional details. Muscles were digested with 8 mg/ml Collagenase D (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and 10 U/ml Dispase II (Roche, Basel, Switzerland) and then manually dissociated to generate cell suspensions. Myofiber debris was removed by filtering the cell suspensions through a 100 µm and then a 40 µm filter (Corning Cellgro # 431752 and # 431750). After filtration, erythrocytes were removed by incubating the cell suspension inan erythrocyte lysis buffer (IBI Scientific # 89135-030). Single-cell RNA-sequencing library preparation. After digestion, the single-cell suspensions were washed and resuspended in 0.04% BSA in PBS at a concentration of 106 cells/ml. A hemocytometer was used to manually count the cells to determine the concentration of the suspension. Single-cell RNA-sequencing libraries were prepared using the Chromium Single Cell 3’ reagent kit v3 (10x Genomics, Pleasanton, CA) following the manufacturer’s protocol (10x Genomics: Resolving Biology to Advance Human Health, 2020). Cells were diluted into the Chromium Single Cell A Chip to yield a recovery of 6,000 single-cell transcriptomes with <5% doublet rate. Libraries were sequenced on the NextSeq 500 (Illumina, San Diego, CA) (Illumina | Sequencing and array-based solutions for genetic research, 2020). The sequencing data was aligned to the mouse reference genome (mm10) using CellRanger v5.0.0 (10x Genomics) (10x Genomics: Resolving Biology to Advance Human Health, 2020). Preprocessing single-cell RNA-sequencing data. From the gene expression matrix, the downstream analysis was carried out in R (v3.6.1). First, the ambient RNA signal was removed using the default SoupX (v1.4.5) workflow (autoEstCounts and adjustCounts; github.com/constantAmateur/SoupX) (Young and Behjati, 2020). Samples were then preprocessed using the standard Seurat (v3.2.3) workflow (NormalizeData, ScaleData, FindVariableFeatures, RunPCA, FindNeighbors, FindClusters, and RunUMAP; github.com/satijalab/seurat) (Stuart et al., 2019). Cells with fewer than 200 genes, with fewer than 750 UMIs, and more than 25% of unique transcripts derived from mitochondrial genes were removed. After preprocessing, DoubletFinder (v2.0.3) was used to identify putative doublets in each dataset (McGinnis, Murrow, and Gartner, 2019). The estimated doublet rate was 5% according to the 10x Chromium handbook. The putative doublets were removed from each dataset. Next, the datasets were merged and then batch-corrected with Harmony (github.com/immunogenomics/harmony) (v1.0) (Korsunsky et al., 2019). Seurat was then used to process the integrated data. Dimensions accounting for 95% of the total variance were used to generate SNN graphs (FindNeighbors) and SNN clustering was performed (FindClusters). A clustering resolution of 0.8 was used resulting in 24 initial clusters. Cell type annotation in single-cell RNA-sequencing data. Cell types were determined by expression of canonical genes. Each of the 24 initial clusters received a unique cell type annotation. The nine myeloid clusters were challenging to differentiate between, so these clusters were subset out (Subset) and re-clustered using a resolution of 0.5 (FindNeighbors, FindClusters) resulting in 15 initial clusters. More specific myeloid cell type annotations were assigned based on the expression of canonical myeloid genes. This did not help to clarify the monocyte and macrophage annotations, but it did help to identify more specific dendritic cell and T cell subtypes. These more specific annotations were transferred from the myeloid subset back to the complete integrated object based on the cell barcode. Analysis of cell type dynamics. We generated a table with the number of cells from each sample (n = 65) in each cell type annotation (n = 29). We removed the erythrocytes from this analysis because they are not a native cell type in skeletal muscle. Next, for each sample, we calculated the percent of cells in each cell type annotation. The mean and standard deviation were calculated from each age and time point for every cell type. The solid line is the mean percentage of the given cell type, the ribbon is the standard deviation around the mean, and the points are the values from individual replicates. We evaluated whether there was a significant difference in the cell type dynamics over all six-time points using non-linear modeling. The dynamics for each cell type were fit to some non-linear equation (e.g., quadratic, cubic, quartic) independent and dependent on age. The type of equation used for each cell type was selected based on the confidence interval and significance (p < 0.05) of the leading coefficient. If the leading coefficient was significantly different from zero, it was concluded that the leading coefficient was needed. If the leading coefficient was not significantly different than zero, it was concluded that the leading coefficient was not needed, and the degree of the equation went down one. No modeling equation went below the second degree. The null hypothesis predicted that the coefficients of the non-linear equation were the same across the age groups while the alternative hypothesis predicted that the coefficients of the non-linear equation were different across the age groups. We conducted a One-Way ANOVA to see if the alternative hypothesis fits the data significantly better than the null hypothesis and we used FDR as the multiple comparison test correction (using the ANOVA and p.adjust (method = fdr) functions in R, respectively). T cell exhaustion scoring. We grouped the three T cell populations (this includes Cd3e+ cycling and non-cycling T cells and Cd4+ T cells) and z-scored all genes. The T cell exhaustion score was calculated using a transfer-learning method developed by Cherry et al 2023 and a T cell exhaustion gene list from Bengsch et al 2018 (Bengsch et al., 2018; Cherry et al., 2023). The Mann-Whitney U-test was performed on the T cell exhaustion score between ages. Senescence scoring. We tested two senescence-scoring methods along with fourteen senescence gene lists (Supplemental Table 2) to identify senescent-like cells within the scRNA-seq dataset. The Two-way Senescence Score (Sen Score) was calculated using a transfer-learning method developed by Cherry et al 2023 (Cherry et al., 2023). With this

This collection of datasets comprises results from four single-cell spatial experiments conducted on mouse brains: two spatial transcriptomics experiments and two spatial proteomics experiments. These experiments were performed using the Bruker Nanostring CosMx technology on 10µm coronal brain sections from the following mouse models: (1) 14-month-old male 5xFAD;ApoeCh mice and genotype controls, and (2) 9-month-old PS19;ApoeCh mice and genotype controls. Each dataset is provided as an RDS file which includes raw and corrected counts for the RNA data and mean fluorescent intensity for the protein data, along with comprehensive metadata. Metadata includes mouse genotype, sample ID, cell type annotations, sex (for PS19;ApoeCh dataset), and X-Y coordinates of each cell. Results from differential gene expression analysis for each cell type between genotypes using MAST are also included as .csv files. Methods Sample preparation: Isopentane fresh-frozen brain hemispheres were embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound (Tissue-Tek, Sakura Fintek, Torrance, CA), and 10µm thick coronal sections were prepared using a cryostat (CM1950, LeicaBiosystems, Deer Park, IL). Six hemibrains were mounted onto each VWR Superfrost Plus microscope slide (Avantor, 48311-703) and kept at -80°C until fixation. For both 5xFAD (14 months old, males) and PS19 (9 months old, females and 1 male ApoeCh) models, n=3 mice per genotype except for n=2 for PS19;ApoeCh (wild-type, ApoeCh HO, 5xFAD HEMI or PS19 HEMI, and 5xFAD HEMI; ApoeCh HO or PS19 HEMI;ApoeCh HO) were used for transcriptomics and proteomics. The same mice were used for both transcriptomics and proteomics. Tissues were processed according to the Nanostring CosMx fresh-frozen slide preparation manual for RNA and protein assays (NanoString University). Data processing: Spatial transcriptomics datasets were filtered using the AtoMx RNA Quality Control module to flag outlier negative probes (control probes targeting non-existent sequences to quantify non-specific hybridization), lowly-expressing cells, FOVs, and target genes. Datasets were then normalized and scaled using Seurat 5.0.1 SCTransform to account for differences in library size across cell types [31]. Principal component analysis (PCA) and uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP) analysis were performed to reduce dimensionality and visualize clusters in space. Unsupervised clustering at 1.0 resolution yielded 33 clusters for the 5xFAD dataset and 40 clusters for the PS19 dataset. Clusters were manually annotated based on gene expression and spatial location. Spatial proteomics data were filtered using the AtoMx Protein Quality Control module to flag unreliable cells based on segmented cell area, negative probe expression, and overly high/low protein expression. Mean fluorescence intensity data were hyperbolic arcsine transformed with the AtoMx Protein Normalization module. Cell types were automatically annotated based on marker gene expression using the CELESTA algorithm.

Abstract:

Salamanders are important tetrapod models to study brain organization and regeneration, however the identity and evolutionary conservation of brain cell types is largely unknown. Here, we delineate cell populations in the axolotl telencephalon during homeostasis and regeneration, representing the first single-cell genomic and spatial profiling of an anamniote tetrapod brain. We identify glutamatergic neurons with similarities to amniote neurons of hippocampus, dorsal and lateral cortex, and conserved GABAergic neuron classes. We infer transcriptional dynamics and gene regulatory relationships of postembryonic, region-specific direct and indirect neurogenesis, and unravel conserved signatures. Following brain injury, ependymoglia activate an injury-specific state before reestablishing lost neuron populations and axonal connections. Together, our analyses yield key insights into the organization, evolution, and regeneration of a tetrapod nervous system.

The dataset includes spatially-resolved gene expression and antigen receptor data from two Tonsil samples (1 and 2). Tissue sections from the tonsil samples were used for spatial transcriptomics (Visium, 10x genomics). Tonsil 2 tissue sections were analyzed by a new method (Spatial VDJ) to spatially resolve antigen receptor sequences (target capture), which was developed in our publication. Nearby or adjacent tissue sections (from Tonsil2) were also analyzed by a bulk antigen receptor sequencing approach (amplicon sequencing), by a method also newly developed by us in the same publication (Bulk SS3 VDJ). For Visium, the data were anonymized (all SNPs removed) using Bamboozle (Ziegenhain and Sandberg, Nature Communications 2021). The deposited data is in the form of fastq files. All remaining data, metadata, micrographs of the tissue sections (of those used for spatial transcriptomics), and scripts used for the analysis are available at Zenodo (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7961605). Final libraries were sequenced on NextSeq2000 (Illumina) or NovaSeq6000 (Illumina) and analyzed with Seurat, Space Ranger, and STutility pipelines.

Visium spatial transcriptomics was performed on one CRC FFPE sample according to the manufacturer’s instructions (protocol CG000408 Revision D and CG000409 Revision C). The region of interest was scored on the FFPE block and a 5µm section was cut and placed on the Visium slide inside the 6x6mm2 fiducial frame. The slide was then incubated at 42 °C for 3h, deparaffinized, H&E stained and imaged using an Olympus VS200 slide scanner. Once imaged, the coverslip was removed, and the slide was decrosslinked. Visium Human Transcriptome Probe kit (v1, PN-1000363) was used for transcript hybridisation. Hybridised RNA molecules were released after tissue permeabilization and captured within each spot by barcoded oligonucleotides. Captured RNA molecules were used for sequencing library preparation and sequenced using NextSeq2000. Sequencing depth was calculated to ensure at least 25000 reads for each tissue covered spot. Visium fastq files were processed using spaceranger v2.0 to produce raw gene expression count data.

In addition to standard output files generated with spaceranger, the dataset includes:

• A1_CR48_TissueType_Anno.csv: spot annotation created via Loupe Browser v6.2. Each spot is classified according to underlying tissue type. Annotation is left empty for spots matching with empty tissue regions.

The study was approved by the University of Sydney Human Research Ethics Committee (2021/845). All cases with PD were levodopa-responsive and fulfilled the UK Brain Bank Clinical Criteria for a diagnosis of clinical PD (Hughes, Ben-Shlomo et al. 1992) with no other neurodegenerative conditions. Cells were not extracted. Tissue sections were cut from FFPE blocks of post-mortem human midbrains at 6µm on a rotary microtome (HistoCore MULTICUT, Leica Biosystems) and mounted on Series 2 adhesive microscope slides (Trajan Scientific Medical, AU) for processing for spatial trranscriptomics. To remove the paraffin, slides were incubated in the oven at 60°C for 1hr and then submerged in HistoChoice Clearing Agent (Sigma-Aldrich, H2779) for 2x7mins, followed by rehydration in decreasing ethanol concentrations (100% ethanol for 2x3mins, 95% ethanol for 3mins, 70% ethanol for 3mins) and distilled H2O for 3mins. Tissue sections were immunohistochemically stained for tyrosine hydroxylase and Regions of Interest (ROIs) processed following Nanostring GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler using the manufacturer's instructions. Libraries were sequenced on Illumina Novaseq 6000 platform using NovaSeq SP 100 cycle kit (XP workflow, 27-8-8-27).
