Project description:Current methods for quantification of differences between scRNA-seq datasets collected in multiple conditions focus on discrete regions of the transcriptional state space such as clusters of cells. Here, we describe a continuous measure of the effect of a perturbation across the transcriptomic space with single cell resolution. We describe the cellular state space as manifold, use a heat filter to estimate the density of each sample over the manifold, and normalize these densities to obtain the relative likelihood of observing each cell in each of the observed conditions. We develop vertex frequency clustering to identify populations of affected cells at the appropriate level of granularity. Using these selected populations we can derive gene signatures of affected populations of cells. We demonstrate both algorithms using a combination of biological and synthetic datasets.

Project description:Current methods for comparing single-cell RNA sequencing datasets collected in multiple conditions focus on discrete regions of the transcriptional state space, such as clusters of cells. Here we quantify the effects of perturbations at the single-cell level using a continuous measure of the effect of a perturbation across the transcriptomic space. We describe this space as a manifold and develop a relative likelihood estimate of observing each cell in each of the experimental conditions using graph signal processing. This likelihood estimate can be used to identify cell populations specifically affected by a perturbation. We also develop vertex frequency clustering to extract populations of affected cells at the level of granularity that matches the perturbation response. The accuracy of our algorithm at identifying clusters of cells that are enriched or depleted in each condition is, on average, 57% higher than the next-best-performing algorithm tested. Gene signatures derived from these clusters are more accurate than those of six alternative algorithms in ground truth comparisons.

Project description:Synthetic lethality (SL) has shown great promise for the discovery of novel targets in cancer. CRISPR double-knockout (CDKO) technologies can only screen several hundred genes and their combinations, but not genome-wide. Therefore, good SL prediction models are highly needed for genes and gene pairs selection in CDKO experiments. In this paper, we develop a novel multi-layer encoder for individual sample-specific SL prediction (MLEC-iSL). Unlike existing SL prediction models, MLEC-iSL is built to predict SL connectivity first. Because SL connectivity is scalable from existing genes in the training data to new genes in validation data, we hypothesize MLEC-iSL has better SL prediction performance. MLEC-iSL has three encoders, namely gene encoder, graph encoder, and transformer encoder. MLEC-iSL has high performance in K562 (AUPR, 0.73; AUC, 0.72) and Jurkat (AUPR, 0.73; AUC, 0.71) cells while no existing methods exceed 0.62 AUPR and AUC in either cell. MLEC-iSL guided CDKO experiment in 22Rv1 cells yielded a 46.8% SL ratio amongst its selected gene pairs. Six of top ten SL connectivity hub genes are validated in 22Rv1 cells. It reveals SL gene pairs and dependency between apoptosis and mitosis cell death pathways.

Project description:Causal interactions between specific psychiatric symptoms could contribute to the heterogenous clinical trajectories observed in early psychopathology. Current diagnostic approaches merge clinical manifestations that co-occur across subjects and could significantly hinder our understanding of clinical pathways connecting individual symptoms. Network analysis techniques have emerged as alternative approaches that could help shed light on the complex dynamics of early psychopathology. The present study attempts to address the two main limitations that have in our opinion hindered the application of network approaches in the clinical setting. Firstly, we show that a multi-layer network analysis approach, can move beyond a static view of psychopathology, by providing an intuitive characterization of the role of specific symptoms in contributing to clinical trajectories over time. Secondly, we show that a Graph-Signal-Processing approach, can exploit knowledge of longitudinal interactions between symptoms, to predict clinical trajectories at the level of the individual. We test our approaches in two independent samples of individuals with genetic and clinical vulnerability for developing psychosis. Novel network approaches can allow to embrace the dynamic complexity of early psychopathology and help pave the way towards a more a personalized approach to clinical care.

Project description:Recent advances in chromatin architecture profiling technologies, such as single-cell Hi-C (scHi-C), allow us to dissect the heterogeneity of chromosome higher-order structures across diverse cell states and different individuals. However, scHi-C experiments are still expensive and not immediately available for population-scale profiling. Here, we present scENCORE, a computational method, to reconstruct personalized and cell-type-specific higher-order chromatin structures, such as A/B compartments, directly from more cost-effective and widely available single-cell epigenetic data (e.g., scATAC-seq). We apply scENCORE on scATAC-seq data from post-mortem prefrontal cortex brains and demonstrate its utility to 1) project Mega-base scale chromatin regions into lower dimensional space by leveraging graph embedding technologies based on cell-type-specific co-variability patterns, 2) define A/B compartments via unsupervised clustering, 3) perform an alignment algorithm for multi-graph embedding to derive comparable chromatin representations and highlight dynamic chromatin compartments across cell states and individuals. Validated by Hi-C experiments using FACS-sorted cells, scENCORE can faithfully reconstruct cell-type-specific chromatin compartments. Furthermore, scENCORE uniformly constructs chromosome conformation across population-scale scATAC-seq data and discovers key 3D structural switching events associated with psychiatric disorders. In summary, scENCORE allows cost-effective cell-type-specific and personalized reconstruction that delineate higher-order chromatin structures.
