| Title |
Single-cell RNA sequencing unveils the hidden powers of zebrafish kidney for generating both hematopoiesis and adaptive antiviral immunity |
| Organism |
Danio rerio |
| Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing

| Summary |
The vertebrate kidneys play two evolutionary conserved roles in waste excretion and osmoregulation. Besides, the kidney of fish is considered as a functional ortholog of mammalian bone marrow that serves as a hematopoietic hub for generating blood cell lineages and immunological responses. However, knowledge about the properties of kidney hematopoietic cells, and the functionality of kidney in fish immune systems remain to be elucidated. To this end, our present study generated a comprehensive atlas with 59 hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HSPC) and immune-cell types from zebrafish kidney via single-cell transcriptome profiling analysis. These populations included almost all known cells associated with innate and adaptive immunity, and displayed differential responses to viral infection, indicating their diverse functional roles in antiviral immunity. Remarkably, HSPCs were found to have extensive reactivities to viral infection, and the trained immunity can be effectively induced in certain HSPCs. In addition, the antigen-stimulated adaptive immunity can be fully generated in kidney, suggesting kidney acting as a secondary lymphoid organ. These results indicated that fish kidney is a dual-functional entity with functionalities of both primary and secondary lymphoid organs. Our findings illustrated the unique features of fish immune system, and highlighted the multifaced biology of kidney in ancient vertebrates.

| Overall design |
Kidney leukocyte (PBS-administered (control), SVCV-infected (infected) and SVCV-vaccinated plus SVCV-infected (vaccinated+infected) groups) of the AB zebrafish were isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque (1.080 g/mL) density-gradient centrifugation and analyzed using scRNAseq.
