Computing hematopoiesis plasticity in response to genetic mutations and environmental stimulations.

ABSTRACT: Cell plasticity (CP), describing a dynamic cell state, plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis during organ morphogenesis, regeneration, and trauma-to-repair biological process. Single-cell-omics datasets provide an unprecedented resource to empower CP analysis. Hematopoiesis offers fertile opportunities to develop quantitative methods for understanding CP. In this study, we generated high-quality lineage-negative single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets under various conditions and introduced a working pipeline named scPlasticity to interrogate naïve and disturbed plasticity of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with mutational or environmental challenges. Using embedding methods UMAP or FA, a continuum of hematopoietic development is visually observed in wild type where the pipel
