Spatiotemporal transcriptomic atlas of mouse organogenesis using DNA nanoball-patterned arrays

Ao Chen et al.

Summary: Spatially resolved transcriptomic technologies enable us to study complex biological processes such as mammalian embryogenesis. However, current methods have limitations in resolution, gene capture, and field of view, which hinders their systematic application to large and three-dimensional mid- and late-gestation embryos. In this study, we developed Stereo-seq, a spatially enhanced resolution omics-sequencing method, by combining DNA nanoball-patterned arrays and in situ RNA capture. We used Stereo-seq to generate the mouse organogenesis spatiotemporal transcriptomic atlas, MOSTA, which provides single cell resolution and high sensitivity for mapping the kinetics and directionality of transcriptional variation during mouse organogenesis. By utilizing this atlas, we investigated the molecular basis of spatial cell heterogeneity and cell fate specification in developing tissues like the dorsal midbrain. Our panoramic atlas will facilitate in-depth research into long-standing questions about normal and abnormal mammalian development.

The cancer microbiome atlas: a pan-cancer comparative analysis to distinguish tissue-resident microbiota from contaminants

Anders B. Dohlman et al.

Summary: The study designed a statistical model to analyze species prevalence across sample types from TCGA and introduced the Cancer Microbiome Atlas (TCMA) by removing contaminants, leading to the discovery of prognostic species and blood signatures of mucosal barrier injuries. This will help guide future studies of the microbiome's role in human health and disease.

Microbiota-specific T follicular helper cells drive tertiary lymphoid structures and anti-tumor immunity against colorectal cancer

Abigail E. Overacre-Delgoffe et al.

Summary: The study showed that introducing specific intestinal bacteria can enhance anti-colorectal cancer immunity and promote tumor control. This anti-tumor immunity is dependent on CD4(+) T cells, B cells, and NK cells.

Spatial analysis of gut microbiome reveals a distinct ecological niche associated with the mucus layer

Kellyanne Duncan et al.

Summary: The study revealed the presence of a biofilm-like microbial community in the mucus layer, which excludes Proteobacteria and is independent of adaptive immunity. Additionally, the biofilm-like community showed enhanced stability and plasticity in response to antibiotic treatment and dietary changes.

Fetal meconium does not have a detectable microbiota before birth

Katherine M. Kennedy et al.

Summary: Research indicates that the fetal gut of healthy term infants is not colonized by microbiota before birth, and the microbial profiles of neonatal meconium reflect populations acquired during and after birth.

Microbial exposure during early human development primes fetal immune cells

Archita Mishra et al.

Summary: During the 2nd trimester of gestation, microbial signals were detected in fetal gut, skin, placenta, and lungs, contributing to fetal immune-priming. Live bacterial strains, including Staphylococcus and Lactobacillus, were identified in fetal tissues, activating memory T cells in the fetal mesenteric lymph node.

The lung microbiome: progress and promise

Samantha A. Whiteside et al.

Summary: The healthy lung is not completely sterile, with bacteria entering from the upper respiratory tract through microaspiration. The nature and dynamics of the lung microbiome differ from other ecological niches with self-sustaining microbial communities, and dysbiosis has been demonstrated in many pulmonary diseases.
