AbstractChanges in cell identities and positions underlie tissue development and disease progression. Although, single-cell mRNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) methods rapidly generate extensive lists of cell-states, spatially resolved single-cell mapping presents a challenging task. We developed SCRINSHOT (Single Cell Resolution INSitu Hybridization On Tissues), a sensitive, multiplex RNA mapping approach. Direct hybridization of padlock probes on mRNA is followed by circularization with SplintR ligase and rolling circle amplification (RCA) of the hybridized padlock probes. Sequential detection of RCA-products using fluorophore-labeled oligonucleotides profiles thousands of cells in tissue sections. We evaluated SCRINSHOT specificity and sensitivity on murine and human organs. SCRINSHOT quantification of marker gene expression shows high correlation with published scRNA-Seq data over a broad range of gene expression levels. We demonstrate the utility of SCRISHOT by mapping the locations of abundant and rare cell types along the murine airways. The amenability, multiplexity and quantitative qualities of SCRINSHOT facilitate single cell mRNA profiling of cell-state alterations in tissues under a variety of native and experimental conditions.

High Degree

Oligonucleotide probes that can be cyclized by ligation (“padlock probes”) provide a very high degree of recognition specificity. Nilsson et al. have demonstrated the used of padlock probes for the cytological localization of alphoid repeats in chromosome 12. We have been extending the use of padlock probes to the detection of single copy sequences, and with this in mind have explored the amplification of DNA circles.We designed a primer complementary to the arbitrary backbone (non-probing) sequence of a 92-base closed circular probe oligonucleotide and investigated the kinetics of rolling circle replication. Using the highly processive, strand-displacing DNA polymerase of phage ∅29 (kindly provided by Dr. Margarita Salas, CSIC, Madrid, Spain) we demonstrated that several hundred tandem copies of the circular oligonucleotide are generated in a few minutes of incubation at 32°C. Because the amplified DNA remains hybridized to the circle in a rolling circle reaction, this method of amplification offers unique advantages for in situ gene detection since the amplified DNA can not diffuse away from the site of synthesis.

Abstract BACKGROUND Influenza remains a constant threat worldwide, and WHO estimates that it affects 5% to 15% of the global population each season, with an associated 3 to 5 million severe cases and up to 500000 deaths. To limit the morbidity and the economic burden of influenza, improved diagnostic assays are needed. METHODS We developed a multiplexed assay for the detection and subtyping of seasonal influenza based on padlock probes and rolling circle amplification. The assay simultaneously targets all 8 genome segments of the 4 circulating influenza variants—A(H1N1), A(H3N2), B/Yamagata, and B/Victoria—and was combined with a prototype cartridge for inexpensive digital quantification. Characterized virus isolates and patient nasopharyngeal swabs were used for assay design and analytical validation. The diagnostic performance was assessed by blinded testing of 50 clinical samples analyzed in parallel with a commercial influenza assay, Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Direct. RESULTS The assay had a detection limit of 18 viral RNA copies and achieved 100% analytical and clinical specificity for differential detection and subtyping of seasonal circulating influenza variants. The diagnostic sensitivity on the 50 clinical samples was 77.5% for detecting influenza and up to 73% for subtyping seasonal variants. CONCLUSIONS We have presented a proof-of-concept padlock probe assay combined with an inexpensive digital readout for the detection and subtyping of seasonal influenza strains A and B. The demonstrated high specificity and multiplexing capability, together with the digital quantification, established the assay as a promising diagnostic tool for seasonal influenza.
