The impact of single-cell genomics on the field of mycobacterial infection
Copyright © 2022 Geraldes, Fernandes, Fraga and Osório..
Genome sequencing projects of humans and other organisms reinforced that the complexity of biological systems is largely attributed to the tight regulation of gene expression at the epigenome and RNA levels. As a consequence, plenty of technological developments arose to increase the sequencing resolution to the cell dimension creating the single-cell genomics research field. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is leading the advances in this topic and comprises a vast array of different methodologies. scRNA-seq and its variants are more and more used in life science and biomedical research since they provide unbiased transcriptomic sequencing of large populations of individual cells. These methods go beyond the previous "bulk" methodologies and sculpt the biological understanding of cellular heterogeneity and dynamic transcriptomic states of cellular populations in immunology, oncology, and developmental biology fields. Despite the large burden caused by mycobacterial infections, advances in this field obtained via single-cell genomics had been comparatively modest. Nonetheless, seminal research publications using single-cell transcriptomics to study host cells infected by mycobacteria have become recently available. Here, we review these works summarizing the most impactful findings and emphasizing the different and recent single-cell methodologies used, potential issues, and problems. In addition, we aim at providing insights into current research gaps and potential future developments related to the use of single-cell genomics to study mycobacterial infection.
