Abstract

Single-cell transcriptomics has transformed our ability to characterize cell states, but deep biological understanding requires more than a taxonomic listing of clusters. As new methods arise to measure distinct cellular modalities, a key analytical challenge is to integrate these datasets to better understand cellular identity and function. Here, we develop a strategy to "anchor" diverse datasets together, enabling us to integrate single-cell measurements not only across scRNA-seq technologies, but also across different modalities. After demonstrating improvement over existing methods for integrating scRNA-seq data, we anchor scRNA-seq experiments with scATAC-seq to explore chromatin differences in closely related interneuron subsets and project protein expression measurements onto a bone marrow atlas to characterize lymphocyte populations. Lastly, we harmonize in situ gene expression and scRNA-seq datasets, allowing transcriptome-wide imputation of spatial gene expression patterns VSports手机版. Our work presents a strategy for the assembly of harmonized references and transfer of information across datasets. .

Figure 1.. Schematic overview of reference “assembly” integration in Seurat v3
(A) Representation of two datasets, reference and query, each of which originates from a separate single-cell experiment. The two datasets share cells from similar biological states, but the query dataset contains a unique population (in black). (B) We perform canonical correlation analysis, followed by L2-normalization of the canonical correlation vectors, to project the datasets into a subspace defined by shared correlation structure across datasets. (C) In the shared space, we identify pairs of mutual nearest neighbors across reference and query cells. These should represent cells in a shared biological state across datasets (grey lines), and serve as “anchors” to guide dataset integration. In principle, cells in unique populations should not participate in anchors, but in practice we observe “incorrect” anchors at low frequency (red lines). (D) For each anchor pair, we assign a score based on the consistency of anchors across the neighborhood structure of each dataset. (E) We utilize anchors and their scores to compute “correction” vectors for each query cell, transforming its expression so it can be jointly analyzed as part of an integrated reference.

Figure 2.. Comparison of multi-dataset integration methods for scRNA-seq
(A-H) UMAP plots of eight pancreatic islet cell datasets colored by dataset (A-D) and by cell type (E-H) after integration with Seurat v3, Seurat v2, mnnCorrect, and Scanorama. To challenge the methods’ robustness to non-overlapping populations, a single cell type was withheld from each dataset prior to integration. (I-J) Distribution of anchor scores and counts, separated by incorrect (different cell types in the anchor pair) and correct (same cell type in the anchor pair) anchors. Anchors are from the analysis in Figure S1A. (K-L) Metrics for evaluating integration performance across the four methods on two main properties: cell “mixing” across datasets and the preservation of within-dataset local structure (STAR Methods).

Figure 3.. Transferring cell state classifications across datasets
(A) Schematic representation where identified anchors allow for the transfer of discrete labels between a reference and query dataset. (B) Confusion matrix for one cell type hold-out evaluation where pancreatic alpha cells were removed from the reference. Cell types with fewer than two cells in the query not shown. Alpha cells in the query consistently receive the lowest classification score, and are labeled as “Unassigned”. (C) Classification benchmarking on 166 test/training datasets from human pancreatic islets and mouse retina. (D) Distribution of prediction scores for one cell type hold-out experiment (as in B). Mis-classification calls are associated with lower prediction scores. (E) Joint visualization of scRNA-seq data with classified scATAC-seq cells (left). We identified anchors between scRNA-seq data (reference) and a gene activity matrix derived from scATAC-seq (query) datasets from the mouse visual cortex, and transferred class annotations (right). (F) We created pseudo-bulk ATAC-seq profiles by pooling together cells with for each cell type. Each cell type showed enriched accessibility near canonical marker genes. Chromatin accessibility tracks are normalized to sequencing depth (RPKM normalization) in each pooled group. Y-axes for each track ranged from 0 to different maxima, due to inherent differences in the maximum read depth at different loci. For each locus, the y-axis maximum shown is: Neurod6 1,500; Gad2, Pvalb, Sst, Vip, Lamp5, and Id2 1,000; Lhx6 600. (G) We searched for overrepresented DNA motifs present in PV-specific accessibility peaks, and identified the Mef2c and Rora motifs as the most highly enriched motifs (p < 10−22 and p < 10−9). (H) Both Mef2c and Rora also exhibit upregulated expression in PV interneurons from scRNA-seq.

Figure 4.. Imputing immunophenotypes in a transcriptomic atlas of the human bone marrow
(A) Cross-validations for immunophenotype imputation, performed using a CITE-seq dataset of 35,543 bone marrow cells and 25 surface proteins. (B) Prediction accuracy as a function of the number of transcriptomic features used to determine anchors. (C) We integrated 274,932 bone marrow cells produced by the Human Cell Atlas and annotated the cell types. Using the CITE-seq bone marrow cells, we predicted protein expression levels in the integrated HCA dataset, and observed expression patterns consistent with the known cell types. (D) Predicted CD8+ CD69+ cells up-regulate a module of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines across all eight donors. Shown are averaged RNA expression values for each human donor. (E) We validated CD69+ marker genes identified in the scRNA-seq data by performing bulk RNA-seq on FACS-isolated CD8+ CD69+/− cells, which revealed a similar set of deferentially expressed genes. (F) We ordered CD8+ memory cells by their CD69 expression in the HCA and CITE-seq datasets, and computed the autocorrelation for each gene along this CD69 axis (Moran’s I). CD69+ marker genes consistently showed a higher Moran’s I value in the HCA dataset, reflecting the increased statistical power accompanying an order-of-magnitude greater cell number.

Figure 5.. Spatial patterns of gene expression in the mouse brain
(A) Schematic representation of data transfer between scRNA-seq and STARmap datasets. After identifying anchors using the subset of genes measured in both experiments, we subsequently transfer sequencing data to the STARmap cells, predicting new spatial expression patterns. (B) Leave-one-out cross validation for 8 genes, exhibiting predicted expression patterns, and original STARmap measurements. (C) Gene expression patterns for Rorb, Syt6, Lamp5 and Sox10, as measured by osmFISH, a highly sensitive single molecular assay [Codeluppi et al., 2018], in the mouse somatosensory cortex. (D) Predicted expression patterns for four genes not originally profiled by STARmap, with external validation in Supplementary File 2. (E) Correlation between Moran’s I value, a measure of spatial autocorrelation, for each predicted gene expression pattern in two STARmap replicates. Marker genes for VLMC cells, endothelial cells, and perivascular macrophages are highlighted, reflecting rare cell subsets that were spatially restricted in only one replicate. (F) Horizontally-compressed STARmap cells with predicted cell type transferred from the SMART-seq2 dataset. (G) Expression of cell type marker genes in each predicted STARmap cell type (both replicates combined).
