Identification of B cell subsets based on antigen receptor sequences using deep learning.

ABSTRACT: B cell receptors (BCRs) denote antigen specificity, while corresponding cell subsets indicate B cell functionality. Since each B cell uniquely encodes this combination, physical isolation and subsequent processing of individual B cells become indispensable to identify both attributes. However, this approach accompanies high costs and inevitable information loss, hindering high-throughput investigation of B cell populations. Here, we present BCR-SORT, a deep learning model that predicts cell subsets from their corresponding BCR sequences by leveraging B cell activation and maturation signatures encoded within BCR sequences. Subsequently, BCR-SORT is demonstrated to improve reconstruction of BCR phylogenetic trees, and reproduce results consistent with those verified using physical isolation-based methods or prior knowledge. Notably, when applied to BCR sequences from COVID-19 vaccine recipients, it revealed inter-individual heterogeneity of evolutionary trajectories towards Omicron-binding memory B cells. Overall, BCR-SORT offers great potential to improve our understanding of B cell responses.

Project description:Purpose To develop a fully automated device- and sequence-independent convolutional neural network (CNN) for reliable and high-throughput labeling of heterogeneous, unstructured MRI data. Materials and Methods Retrospective, multicentric brain MRI data (2179 patients with glioblastoma, 8544 examinations, 63 327 sequences) from 249 hospitals and 29 scanner types were used to develop a network based on ResNet-18 architecture to differentiate nine MRI sequence types, including T1-weighted, postcontrast T1-weighted, T2-weighted, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, susceptibility-weighted, apparent diffusion coefficient, diffusion-weighted (low and high b value), and gradient-recalled echo T2*-weighted and dynamic susceptibility contrast-related images. The two-dimensional-midsection images from each sequence were allocated to training or validation (approximately 80%) and testing (approximately 20%) using a stratified split to ensure balanced groups across institutions, patients, and MRI sequence types. The prediction accuracy was quantified for each sequence type, and subgroup comparison of model performance was performed using χ2 tests. Results On the test set, the overall accuracy of the CNN (ResNet-18) ensemble model among all sequence types was 97.9% (95% CI: 97.6, 98.1), ranging from 84.2% for susceptibility-weighted images (95% CI: 81.8, 86.6) to 99.8% for T2-weighted images (95% CI: 99.7, 99.9). The ResNet-18 model achieved significantly better accuracy compared with ResNet-50 despite its simpler architecture (97.9% vs 97.1%; P ≤ .001). The accuracy of the ResNet-18 model was not affected by the presence versus absence of tumor on the two-dimensional-midsection images for any sequence type (P > .05). Conclusion The developed CNN (www.github.com/neuroAI-HD/HD-SEQ-ID) reliably differentiates nine types of MRI sequences within multicenter and large-scale population neuroimaging data and may enhance the speed, accuracy, and efficiency of clinical and research neuroradiologic workflows.
