Abstract: Cells are the basic units of all organisms and are involved in all vital activities, such as proliferation, differentiation, senescence, and apoptosis. A human body consists of more than 30 trillion cells generated through repeated division and differentiation from a single-cell fertilized egg in a highly organized programmatic fashion. Since the recent formation of the Human Cell Atlas consortium, establishing the Human Cell Atlas at the single-cell level has been an ongoing activity with the goal of understanding the mechanisms underlying diseases and vital cellular activities at the level of the single cell. In particular, transcriptome analysis of embryonic stem cells at the single-cell level is of great importance, as these cells are responsible for determining cell fate. Here, we review single-cell analysis techniques that have been actively used in recent years, introduce the single-cell analysis studies currently in progress in pluripotent stem cells and reprogramming, and forecast future studies. Keywords: single-cell mRNA sequencing; pluripotent stem cell; somatic cell reprogramming; in- duced pluripotent stem cell; heterogeneity Citation: Kim, H.K.; Ha, T.W.; Lee, M.R.

Stagliano1 and John S. Tsang1,2) 1 CHI 2 Systems Genomics and Bioinformatics Unit, NIAID Abstract Background: Interest in single-cell transcriptomic analysis is growing rapidly, especially for profiling rare or heterogeneous populations of cells. In almost all reported works, investigators have used live cells which introduces cell stress during preparation and hinders complex study designs. Recent studies have indicated that cells fixed by denaturing fixative can be used in single-cell sequencing. But they did not work with most primary cells including immune cells. Methods: The methanol-fixation and new processing method was introduced to preserve PBMCs for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) analysis on 10X Chromium platform. Results: When methanol fixation protocol was broken up into three steps: fixation, storage and rehydration, we found that PBMC RNA was degraded during rehydration with PBS, not at cell fixation and up to three-month storage steps.

    Polish Roadmap for Research Infrastructures Polish Roadmap for Research Infrastructures Preface Research plays a key role in the development of soci- ety and civilization. Through research we are able to ef- fectively address new challenges such as quality of life, civilization diseases, demographic changes, sustainable development and environmental protection, as well as energy security. Without top-level research it is impos- sible not only to successfully face the above mentioned and other challenges but also to understand the dy- Wojciech Murdzek namically changing world. Minister of Science and Higher Education There are two elements of vital importance for research excellence – human capital and state-of-the-art re- search infrastructures. The latter is doubly important owing to its essential role in training future scientific and technical staff. Major strategic research infrastruc- tures attract world-class scientists and innovative com- panies which enables economic growth as well as en- hance social capital. Excellent laboratories applying the highest standards of research and education are there- fore necessary for each country to develop. The Polish Roadmap for Research Infrastructures is a tool created to facilitate the development of these laboratories. It comprises seventy of the most ambitious research infrastructure projects of great socio-econom- ic significance, chosen through a transparent process carried out in accordance with international standards. The Roadmap is to become the basis for the investment policy of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education in the coming years, however it is worth underlining that placing a research infrastructure project on the Roadmap does not automatically imply the financial commitment of the Ministry.

  • Whole-Organism Eqtl Mapping at Cellular Resolution with Single-Cell
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Whole-organism eQTL mapping at cellular resolution with single-cell sequencing Eyal Ben-David1,2*, James Boocock1, Longhua Guo1, Stefan Zdraljevic1, Joshua S Bloom1*, Leonid Kruglyak1* 1Department of Human Genetics, Department of Biological Chemistry, and Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, United States; 2Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Institute for Medical Research Israel-Canada, The Hebrew University School of Medicine, Jerusalem, Israel Abstract Genetic regulation of gene expression underlies variation in disease risk and other complex traits. The effect of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) varies across cell types; however, the complexity of mammalian tissues makes studying cell-type eQTLs highly challenging. We developed a novel approach in the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that uses single- cell RNA sequencing to map eQTLs at cellular resolution in a single one-pot experiment. We mapped eQTLs across cell types in an extremely large population of genetically distinct C. elegans individuals. We found cell-type-specific trans eQTL hotspots that affect the expression of core pathways in the relevant cell types. Finally, we found single-cell-specific eQTL effects in the nervous system, including an eQTL with opposite effects in two individual neurons. Our results show that eQTL effects can be specific down to the level of single cells. *For correspondence: Introduction [email protected] (EB- Gene expression differences have a strong genetic basis, and genome-wide studies have identi- D); [email protected] (JSB); fied thousands of regions affecting gene expression, termed expression quantitative trait loci [email protected] (LK) (eQTLs) (Albert and Kruglyak, 2015).

  • Leveraging Novel Integrated Single-Cell Analyses to Define HIV
    viruses Review Leveraging Novel Integrated Single-Cell Analyses to Define HIV-1 Latency Reversal Suhui Zhao and Athe Tsibris * Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02139, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: While suppressive antiretroviral therapy can effectively limit HIV-1 replication and evolu- tion, it leaves behind a residual pool of integrated viral genomes that persist in a state of reversible nonproductive infection, referred to as the HIV-1 reservoir. HIV-1 infection models were established to investigate HIV-1 latency and its reversal; recent work began to probe the dynamics of HIV-1 latency reversal at single-cell resolution. Signals that establish HIV-1 latency and govern its reac- tivation are complex and may not be completely resolved at the cellular and regulatory levels by the aggregated measurements of bulk cellular-sequencing methods. High-throughput single-cell technologies that characterize and quantify changes to the epigenome, transcriptome, and proteome continue to rapidly evolve. Combinations of single-cell techniques, in conjunction with novel compu- tational approaches to analyze these data, were developed and provide an opportunity to improve the resolution of the heterogeneity that may exist in HIV-1 reactivation. In this review, we summarize the published single-cell HIV-1 transcriptomic work and explore how cutting-edge advances in single-cell techniques and integrative data-analysis tools may be leveraged to define the mechanisms that control the reversal of HIV-1 latency. Keywords: HIV latency; virus reservoir; single-cell RNA-seq; single-cell ATAC-seq; CITE-seq Citation: Zhao, S.; Tsibris, A.
