Inference and analysis of cell-cell communication using CellChat

Understanding global communications among cells requires accurate representation of cell-cell signaling links and effective systems-level analyses of those links. We construct a database of interactions among ligands, receptors and their cofactors that accurately represent known heteromeric molecular complexes. We then develop **CellChat**, a tool that is able to quantitatively infer and analyze intercellular communication networks from single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. CellChat predicts major signaling inputs and outputs for cells and how those cells and signals coordinate for functions using network analysis and pattern recognition approaches. Through manifold learning and quantitative contrasts, CellChat classifies signaling pathways and delineates conserved and context-specific pathways across different datasets. Applying **CellChat** to mouse and human skin datasets shows its ability to extract complex signaling patterns.

CellRank2: Unified fate mapping in multiview single-cell data

CellRank2 (Weiler et al, 2023) is a powerful framework for studying cellular fate using single-cell RNA sequencing data. It can handle millions of cells and different data types efficiently. This tool can identify cell fate and probabilities across various data sets. It also allows for analyzing transitions over time and uncovering key genes in developmental processes. Additionally, CellRank2 estimates cell-specific transcription and degradation rates, aiding in understanding differentiation trajectories and regulatory mechanisms. In this notebook, we will use a primary tumor sample of patient T71 from the dataset GSE137804 (Dong R. et al, 2020) as an example. We have performed RNA-velocity analysis and pseudotime calculation on this dataset in scVelo (Bergen et al, 2020) notebook. The output will be then loaded into this CellRank2 notebook for further analysis. This notebook is based on the tutorial provided on CellRank2 documentation. We have modified the notebook and changed the input data to show how the tool works on BioTuring's platform.

Deep learning and alignment of spatially resolved single-cell transcriptomes with Tangram

Charting an organs’ biological atlas requires us to spatially resolve the entire single-cell transcriptome, and to relate such cellular features to the anatomical scale. Single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq (sc/snRNA-seq) can profile cells comprehensively, but lose spatial information. Spatial transcriptomics allows for spatial measurements, but at lower resolution and with limited sensitivity. Targeted in situ technologies solve both issues, but are limited in gene throughput. To overcome these limitations we present Tangram, a method that aligns sc/snRNA-seq data to various forms of spatial data collected from the same region, including MERFISH, STARmap, smFISH, Spatial Transcriptomics (Visium) and histological images. **Tangram** can map any type of sc/snRNA-seq data, including multimodal data such as those from SHARE-seq, which we used to reveal spatial patterns of chromatin accessibility. We demonstrate Tangram on healthy mouse brain tissue, by reconstructing a genome-wide anatomically integrated spatial map at single-cell resolution of the visual and somatomotor areas.
