DetecDiv, a generalist deep-learning platform for automated cell division tracking and survival analysis

Théo Aspert, Didier Hentsch, Gilles Charvin. eLife, (2022) - DOI: 10.7554/eLife.79519

In this work, we used deep learning to classify sequences of images of individual yeast trapped in microfluidic cavities to auomatize their successive divisions.

We have shown that our analysis method allows for a very accurate measurement of the replicative life span of cells, or their survival in response to environmental stress. This method, which is very general, since it works very well on several trap geometries and imaging conditions, paves the way to more systematic studies of the mechanisms that control the entry into cellular senescence.

 

Monitoring single-cell dynamics of entry into quiescence during an unperturbed life cycle

Jacquel Basile, Aspert Théo, Laporte Damien, Sagot Isabelle, Charvin Gilles. eLife, 10:e73186, (2021) - DOI: 10.7554/eLife.73186

In this study, we developed a microfluidic system to monitor the entry into quiescence of individual yeast cells exposed to progressive nutrient depletion caused by population growth. We used fluorescent markers to characterize the dynamics of cell reorganization during different phases of quiescence entry. Our methodology reveals the emergence of a heterogeneity of cell fates, with some cells unable to enter respiration after the diauxic shift.

 

Excessive rDNA transcription drives the disruption in nuclear homeostasis during entry into senescence in budding yeast

Morlot S, Song J, Léger I, Matifas A, Gadal O, Charvin G. Cell Rep, (28)2:408-422, (2019) - DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2019.06.032

Dans ce travail, nous avons mesuré la dynamique de l'entrée en séensecence dans des cellules individuelles de levure. En particulier, nous avons démontré expérimentalement que les mini-cercles d'ADN ribosomiques extra-chromosomaux (ou ERCs), qui sont étroitement associées au vieillissement chez la levure, s'accumulent exponentiellement bien avant que que les cellules entrent en sénescence et conduisent à une accumulation massive d'ARN ribosomique dans le nucléole et de dysfonctionnements nucléaires majeurs. Nos expériences permettent ainsi de construire un scénario temporel quantitatif conduisant à l'entrée en sénescence.
