DeMixSC: a deconvolution framework that uses single-cell sequencing plus a small benchmark dataset for improved analysis of cell-type ratios in complex tissue samples

ABSTRACT: Bulk deconvolution with single-cell/nucleus RNA-seq data is critical for understanding heterogeneity in complex biological samples, yet the technological discrepancy across sequencing platforms limits deconvolution accuracy. To address this, we introduce an experimental design to match inter-platform biological signals, hence revealing the technological discrepancy, and then develop a deconvolution framework called DeMixSC using the better-matched, i.e., benchmark, data. Built upon a novel weighted nonnegative least-squares framework, DeMixSC identifies and adjusts genes with high technological discrepancy and aligns the benchmark data with large patient cohorts of matched-tissue-type for large-scale deconvolution. Our results using a benchmark dataset of healthy retinas suggest much-improved deconvolution accuracy. Further analysis of a cohort of 453 patients with age-related macular degeneration supports the broad applicability of DeMixSC. Our findings reveal the impact of technological discrepancy on deconvolution performance and underscore the importance of a well-matched dataset to resolve this challenge. The developed DeMixSC framework is generally applicable for deconvolving large cohorts of disease tissues, and potentially cancer.

HiTIMED: hierarchical tumor immune microenvironment epigenetic deconvolution for accurate cell type resolution in the tumor microenvironment using tumor‑type‑specific DNA methylation data

Project description:The solid tumor microenvironment is heterogeneous and varies in composition by tumor type. High-resolution profiling of the cell composition in tumor microenvironments is crucial to understanding its biological role and function in clinical outcomes. Previously, gene expression and DNA methylation-based deconvolution approaches for tumor microenvironment have succeeded in deconvolving major cell types. However, existing methods lack accuracy and specificity to tumor type and include a limited amount of cell types. We developed a novel DNA methylation-based algorithm, HiTIMED, to estimate cell proportions in tumor microenvironments with a high resolution. HiTIMED employs a tumor-site-specific hierarchical model to enhance the accuracy of the predictions. Seventeen cell types, three major tumor microenvironment components (tumor, immune, angiogenic), and twenty carcinoma types can be profiled by HiTIMED. We demonstrated prognostic significance of HiTIMED cell types that other methods in the tumor microenvironment deconvolution were not capturing. The high resolution of HiTIMED deconvolution provides additional opportunities to study the impact of the tumor microenvironment on clinically significant outcomes like immunotherapy response.

Single cell RNA-seq characterizes neural cell population in mouse dorsal root ganglion tissue

Project description:We characterized the cell population in mouse dorsal root ganglion using single cell RNA-seq experiment. The data was generated to test the ability of deconvolution method AdRoit. Neural tissues typically have many closely related neuronal cell types and subtypes. The complex population composition forms a challenging testing ground for evaluating and benchmarking the accuracy and robustness of deconvolution methods.

Prediction of bacterial infection outcome using single cell RNA-seq analysis of human immune cells [scRNA-seq ind. 2]

Project description:During host-pathogen encounters, the complex interactions between different immune cell-types can determine the outcome of infection. Advances in single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) allow to probe this complexity of immunity, and afforded the basis for deconvolution algorithms that infer cell-type compositions from bulk RNA-seq measurements. However, immune activation, an important aspect of immune surveillance, is not represented in current algorithms. Here, using scRNA-seq of human peripheral blood cells infected with Salmonella, we developed a novel deconvolution algorithm to infer dynamic immune states from bulk measurements. We applied our dynamic deconvolution algorithm both to cohorts of healthy individuals challenged ex vivo with Salmonella and to cohorts of tuberculosis patients during different stages of disease. We revealed cell-type specific immune responses associated not only with ex vivo infection phenotype but also with clinical disease stage. We propose that our approach provides a predictive power to identify risk for disease, and can be applied to comprehensively study human infection outcome.

Rat deconvolution as knowledge miner for immune cell trafficking from toxicogenomics databases

Project description:Toxicogenomics databases are useful for understanding biological responses in individuals because they are derived from well-controlled experiments and include a diverse spectrum of biological responses. Although these databases contain no information regarding immune cells in the liver, which are important in the progression of liver injury, deconvolution that estimates cell-type proportions from bulk transcriptome could add information regarding immune cell trafficking to the database. However, deconvolution has been mainly applied to humans and mice and less often to rats, which are the main target of toxicogenomics databases. Here, we developed a deconvolution method for rats and established a methodology to obtain information regarding immune cells from toxicogenomics databases. The contributions of this work are three-fold. First, we obtained the gene expression profiles of various rat immune cells necessary for deconvolution and constructed a dataset; second, we compared the accuracy of models based on human and mouse datasets and showed the impact of species differences on deconvolution; third, we showed that rat deconvolution could retrieve information regarding immune cell trafficking from toxicogenomics databases.
