Deep single-cell RNA sequencing data of individual T cells from treatment-naive colorectal cancer patients.

ABSTRACT: T cells, as a crucial compartment of the tumour microenvironment, play vital roles in cancer immunotherapy. However, the basic properties of tumour-infiltrating T cells (TILs) such as the functional state, migratory capability and clonal expansion remain elusive. Here, using Smart-seq2 protocol, we have generated a RNA sequencing dataset of 11,138 T cells isolated from peripheral blood, adjacent normal and tumour tissues of 12 colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, including 4 with microsatellite instability (MSI). The dataset contained an expression profile of 10,805 T cells, as well as the full-length T cell receptor (TCR) sequences of 9,878 cells after quality control. To facilitate data mining of our T cell dataset, we developed a web-based application to deliver systematic interrogations a
