Atlas of Clinically Distinct Cell States and Cellular Ecosystems Across Human Solid Tumors

ABSTRACT: Determining how cells vary with their local signaling environment and organize into distinct cellular communities is critical for understanding processes as diverse as development, aging, and cancer. Here we introduce EcoTyper, a new machine learning framework for large-scale identification and validation of cell states and multicellular communities from bulk, single-cell, and spatially-resolved gene expression data. When applied to 12 major cell lineages across 16 types of human carcinoma, EcoTyper identified 69 transcriptionally-defined cell states. Most states were specific to neoplastic tissue, ubiquitous across tumor types, and significantly prognostic. By analyzing cell state co-occurrence patterns, we discovered 10 clinically-distinct multicellular communities with unexpectedly strong conservation, including four with unique myeloid and stromal elements, one enriched in normal tissue, and two associated with early cancer development. This study elucidates fundamental units of cellular organization in human carcinoma and provides a framework for large-scale profiling of cellular ecosystems in any tissue (https://ecotyper.stanford.edu).

The Landscape of Tumor Cell States and Ecosystems in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma [scVDJ-seq]

Project description:Biological heterogeneity in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is partly driven by cell-of-origin subtypes and associated genomic lesions, but also by diverse cell types and cell states in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, dissecting these cell states and their clinical relevance at scale remains challenging. Here, we implemented EcoTyper, a machine learning framework integrating transcriptome deconvolution and single-cell RNA sequencing, to characterize clinically relevant DLBCL cell states and ecosystems. Using this approach, we identified five cell states of malignant B cells that vary in prognostic associations and differentiation status. We also identified striking variation in cell states for 12 other lineages comprising the TME and forming cell-state interactions in stereotyped ecosystems. While cell-of-origin subtypes have distinct TME composition, DLBCL ecosystems capture clinical heterogeneity within existing subtypes and extend beyond cell-of-origin and genotypic classes. These results resolve the DLBCL microenvironment at unprecedented resolution and identify opportunities for therapeutic targeting (https://ecotyper-stanford-edu.stanford.idm.oclc.org/lymphoma).

METI: Deep profiling of tumor ecosystems by integrating cell morphology and spatial transcriptomics

Project description:The recent advance of spatial transcriptomics (ST) technique provides valuable insights into the organization and interactions of cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME). While various analytical tools have been developed for tasks such as spatial clustering, spatially variable gene identification, and cell type deconvolution, most of them are general methods lacking consideration of histological features in spatial data analysis. This limitation results in reduced performance and interpretability of their results when studying the TME. Here, we present a computational framework named, Morphology-Enhanced Spatial Transcriptome Analysis Integrator (METI) to address this gap. METI is an end-to-end framework capable of spatial mapping of both cancer cells and various TME cell components, robust stratification of cell type and transcriptional states, and cell co-localization analysis. By integrating both spatial transcriptomics, cell morphology and curated gene signatures, METI enhances our understanding of the molecular landscape and cellular interactions within the tissue, facilitating detailed investigations of the TME and its functional implications. The performance of METI has been evaluated on ST data generated from various tumor tissues, including gastric, lung, and bladder cancers, as well as premalignant tissues. Across all these tissues and conditions, METI has demonstrated robust performance with consistency.

Refined molecular taxonomy and treatment remodeling of pancreatic cancer using single-cell resolution

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal and treatment-refractory cancer. Molecular stratification in pancreatic cancer remains rudimentary and does not yet inform clinical management or therapeutic development. Here we construct a high-resolution molecular landscape of the multicellular subtypes and spatial communities that compose PAC using single-nucleus RNA-seq and whole-transcriptome digital spatial profiling (SP) of 43 primary PDAC tumor specimens that either received neoadjuvant therapy or were treatment-naïve. We uncovered expression programs across malignant cells and fibroblasts, including a newly-identified neural-like progenitor malignant cell program that was enriched after chemotherapy and radiotherapy and associated with poor prognosis in independent cohorts. Integrating spatial and cellular profiles revealed three multicellular communities: classical, squamoid-basaloid, and treatment-enriched. Our refined molecular and cellular taxonomy can advance precision oncology in PAC through stratification in clinical trials and as roadmap for therapeutic targeting of specific cellular phenotypes and multicellular interactions.

Establishing a reproducible approach to study cellular functions of plants cells with 3D bioprinting

Project description:Capturing cell-to-cell and cell-to-environment signals in a defined 3 dimensional (3D) microenvironment is key to study cellular functions, including cellular reprogramming towards tissue regeneration. A major challenge in current culturing methods is that these methods cannot accurately capture this multicellular 3D microenvironment. In this study, we established the framework of 3D bioprinting with plant cells to study cell viability, cell division, and cell identity. To investigate the cellular reprogramming underlying the initial cell divisions prior to microcallus formation, we collected RNA from isolated differentiated root cells immediately, 1, and 3 days after bioprinting. We showed the cell cycle re-entry of the isolated Arabidopsis and soybean cells leading to the formation of microcalli and of which the timing coincides with the induction of core cell cycle genes and regeneration-related genes. Finally, we showed that the identity of isolated cells of Arabidopsis roots expressing endodermal markers maintained longer periods of time. The framework established in this study paves the way for a general use of 3D bioprinting for studying cellular reprogramming and cell cycle re-entry towards tissue regeneration.

Spatial transcriptomics stratifies psoriatic disease by emergent cellular ecosystems

Project description:The skin is recognized as a window into the immunopathogenic mechanisms driving the vast phenotypic spectrum of psoriatic disease. To better decipher the cellular landscape of both healthy and psoriatic skin, we employed spatial transcriptomics (ST), a ground-breaking technology that precisely maps gene expression from histologically-intact tissue sections. Findings gleaned from computationally integrating our 23 matched lesional and non-lesional psoriatic and 7 healthy control samples with publicly-available single cell RNA seq data sets provided insights into the emergent cellular ecosystems at play in psoriatic disease.

Single-cell transcriptional profiling of Th17 cells, harvested at peak of disease in EAE from LN [EAE-LN-IL-17A/GFP+]

Project description:Extensive cellular heterogeneity exists within specific immune-cell subtypes classified as a single lineage, but its molecular underpinnings are rarely characterized at a genomic scale. Here, we use single-cell RNA-seq to investigate the molecular mechanisms governing heterogeneity and pathogenicity of Th17 cells isolated from the central nervous system (CNS) and lymph nodes (LN) at the peak of autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) or polarized in vitro under either pathogenic or non-pathogenic differentiation conditions. Computational analysis reveals a spectrum of cellular states in vivo, including a self-renewal state, Th1-like effector/memory states and a dysfunctional/senescent state. Relating these states to in vitro differentiated Th17 cells, unveils genes governing pathogenicity and disease susceptibility. Using knockout mice, we validate four novel genes: Gpr65, Plzp, Toso and Cd5l (in a companion paper). Cellular heterogeneity thus informs Th17 function in autoimmunity, and can identify targets for selective suppression of pathogenic Th17 cells while sparing non-pathogenic tissue-protective ones.
