The basic components of the HNS are the hypothalamic axonal projections endothelial blood vessels and astroglial like cells termed pituicytes. These three tissue types converge and interact at the ventral forebrain to establish an efficient neuro vascular interface which allows the release of neurohormones from the brain to the periphery. However the molecular blueprint of pituicytes specific genes is still unknown. We have labelled and isolated zebrafish pituicytes cells and have identified their molecular signature.

Gene Expr Patterns 2009.,Dissected pituitaries 5 groups; n= 7 per group were immediately transferred into ice cold HBS buffer in a 1.5 ml tube until dissociation. The buffer were replaced with 250µL ice cold PBS +/+ and pituitary were then dissociated using prewarmed Liberase TM Roche for 12minutes and trypsination along with DNASe for 5 minutes at 30 degree C with occasional pipetting. Dissociation was stopped by adding 50µl of FBS and dissociated cells were pelleted by centrifuging at 500g at 4°C for 5 minutes.

Propidium iodide was added to label dead cells. High speed FACS was performed using an SORP FACSAria machine BD Bioscience San Jose CA with 70µm nozzle. A two gate FACS technique was used to select only AMCA+ cells from non fluorescent and auto fluorescent cells. As a control non AMCA AMCA cells were sorted.

For this methods that accurately evaluate cellular age are required. However such techniques are currently limited and based on post hoc evaluation using a limited set of histological markers. Development of a technique capable of predicting cellular age and its modifiers requires a framework that can robustly handle the noise associated with single cell sampling protocols. Here we implement GERAS GEnetic Reference for Age of Single cell a machine learning based framework capable of assigning individual cells to chronological stages based on their transcriptomes. GERAS displayed greater than 90% accuracy in predicting the chronological stage of zebrafish beta cells and human pancreatic cells. The framework demonstrates robustness against biological and technical noise as evaluated by its performance on independent samplings of single cells. Additionally GERAS enabled the evaluation of differences in calorie intake and body mass index on the aging of zebrafish and human cells respectively. We further harnessed the predictive power of GERAS to identify genome wide molecular factors that correlate with aging. We show that one of these factors junb which declines in expression with aging is necessary to maintain the proliferative state of juvenile beta cells.

Here we implement GERAS GEnetic Reference for Age of Single cell a machine learning based framework capable of assigning individual cells to chronological stages based on their transcriptomes. GERAS displayed greater than 90% accuracy in predicting the chronological stage of zebrafish beta cells and human pancreatic cells. The framework demonstrates robustness against biological and technical noise as evaluated by its performance on independent samplings of single cells. Additionally GERAS enabled the evaluation of differences in calorie intake and body mass index on the aging of zebrafish and human cells respectively. We further harnessed the predictive power of GERAS to identify genome wide molecular factors that correlate with aging. We show that one of these factors junb which declines in expression with aging is necessary to maintain the proliferative state of juvenile beta cells. Our results showcase the applicability of a machine learning framework to predict the chronological stage of heterogeneous cell populations. The study demonstrates the utility of stage classifiers in assessing pro aging factors and uncovering candidate genes associated with premature aging.

For this methods that accurately evaluate cellular age are required. However such techniques are currently limited and based on post hoc evaluation using a limited set of histological markers. Development of a technique capable of predicting cellular age and its modifiers requires a framework that can robustly handle the noise associated with single cell sampling protocols. Here we implement GERAS GEnetic Reference for Age of Single cell a machine learning based framework capable of assigning individual cells to chronological stages based on their transcriptomes. GERAS displayed greater than 90% accuracy in predicting the chronological stage of zebrafish beta cells and human pancreatic cells. The framework demonstrates robustness against biological and technical noise as evaluated by its performance on independent samplings of single cells. Additionally GERAS enabled the evaluation of differences in calorie intake and body mass index on the aging of zebrafish and human cells respectively. We further harnessed the predictive power of GERAS to identify genome wide molecular factors that correlate with aging. We show that one of these factors junb which declines in expression with aging is necessary to maintain the proliferative state of juvenile beta cells. Our results showcase the applicability of a machine learning framework to predict the chronological stage of heterogeneous cell populations. The study demonstrates the utility of stage classifiers in assessing pro aging factors and uncovering candidate genes associated with premature aging.

Cells were sorted into a 96 well plates and single cell library prepared using SMART Seq v4 Ultra Low Input RNA Kit . Sequencing was performed on llumina Nextseq500 aiming at an average sequencing depth of 0.5 million reads per cell. Reads were splice aligned to the zebrafish genome GRCz10 using HISAT2. htseq count was used to assign reads to exons thus eventually getting counts per gene.,,pubmed:30464314,,4mpf IF 16,GSM3325332,,tissue:beta cells|age:4mpf|strain:Tgins:BB1.0L|feeding:Intermittent feeding,4mpf IF 16,Trimming using trim galore using default parameters Mapping using HISAT2 with default parameters Counts per gene generated using htseq count with default parameters Genome build: Zebrafish GRCz10,beta cells,,FACS SMART Seq v4,,age:4mpf|strain:Tgins:BB1.0L|feeding:Intermittent feeding,GSM3325332,GSM3325332: 4mpf IF 16; Danio rerio; RNA Seq,GSM3325332,,1,FACS SMART Seq v4,GEO Accession:GSM3325332,RNA-Seq,TRANSCRIPTOMIC,cDNA,SINGLE,ILLUMINA,NextSeq 500,,SRP131808,,,4mpf_IF_16.fastq.gz,fastq,49501688.0,651338.0,GSM3325332 r1,0:76 1:0,A:12472487;C:12100962;G:11901446;T:13025835;N:958,76,0,,,12472487,12100962,11901446,13025835,958,SRX4522710,SRS3641026,SRA654064,GEO,"Ninov Lab, Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden",1,0.82421,,0.03404,,0.95045,,0.73497,,76,,B,,usable mapping rate,illumina,nextseq,unknown,cdna_unspecified,unknown,sc,single_cell_plate,smartseq,,Germany,2018-08-08,Adult,Adult,Pancreas,Endocrine System
