Cell2location: Comprehensive mapping of tissue cell architecture via integrated single cell and spatial transcriptomic

Cell2location is a principled Bayesian model that can resolve fine-grained cell types in spatial transcriptomic data and create comprehensive cellular maps of diverse tissues. Cell2location accounts for technical sources of variation and borrows statistical strength across locations, thereby enabling the integration of single cell and spatial transcriptomics with higher sensitivity and resolution than existing tools. This is achieved by estimating which combination of cell types in which cell abundance could have given the mRNA counts in the spatial data, while modelling technical effects (platform/technology effect, contaminating RNA, unexplained variance). This tutorial shows how to use cell2location method for spatially resolving fine-grained cell types by integrating 10X Visium data with scRNA-seq reference of cell types. Cell2location is a principled Bayesian model that estimates which combination of cell types in which cell abundance could have given the mRNA counts in the spatial data, while modelling technical effects (platform/technology effect, contaminating RNA, unexplained variance).

Slingshot: cell lineage and pseudotime inference for single-cell transcriptomics

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data have allowed us to investigate cellular heterogeneity and the kinetics of a biological process. Some studies need to understand how cells change state, and corresponding genes during the process, but it is challenging to track the cell development in scRNA-seq protocols. Therefore, a variety of statistical and computational methods have been proposed for lineage inference (or pseudotemporal ordering) to reconstruct the states of cells according to the developmental process from the measured snapshot data. Specifically, lineage refers to an ordered transition of cellular states, where individual cells represent points along. pseudotime is a one-dimensional variable representing each cell’s transcriptional progression toward the terminal state. Slingshot which is one of the methods suggested for lineage reconstruction and pseudotime inference from single-cell gene expression data. In this notebook, we will illustrate an example workflow for cell lineage and pseudotime inference using Slingshot. The notebook is inspired by Slingshot's vignette and modified to demonstrate how the tool works on BioTuring's platform.

SpaCET: Cell type deconvolution and interaction analysis

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) technology has allowed to capture of topographical gene expression profiling of tumor tissues, but single-cell resolution is potentially lost. Identifying cell identities in ST datasets from tumors or other samples remains challenging for existing cell-type deconvolution methods. Spatial Cellular Estimator for Tumors (SpaCET) is an R package for analyzing cancer ST datasets to estimate cell lineages and intercellular interactions in the tumor microenvironment. Generally, SpaCET infers the malignant cell fraction through a gene pattern dictionary, then calibrates local cell densities and determines immune and stromal cell lineage fractions using a constrained regression model. Finally, the method can reveal putative cell-cell interactions in the tumor microenvironment. In this notebook, we will illustrate an example workflow for cell type deconvolution and interaction analysis on breast cancer ST data from 10X Visium. The notebook is inspired by SpaCET's vignettes and modified to demonstrate how the tool works on BioTuring's platform.
