Single-cell transcriptome analysis revealed continuous changes in molecular phenotypes during epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition
Many genes involved in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) have been identified to date, but mechanisms contributing to the phenotypic diversity and those governing the coupling between the dynamics of epithelial genes and that of the mesenchymal genes are unclear. In this study, we employed single-cell transcriptome analysis to study the gene expression changes during dynamic E-to-M transition. Dose-dependent response to TGFbeta signal suggested that gene expression patterns between E and M states are rather continuous unlike binary switching between two discrete populations. E and M genes can be classified into several subclusters based on expression correlation and it turned out that some E and M genes are mutually exclusive but others are not. Our data suggests that complex and continuous changes in molecular phenotypes occur during EMT at a single-cell level.
