  1. 29 Spatially-resolved Transcriptomics Analysis with R/Bioconductor and Beyond Leonardo Collado-Torres,

    Ph.D. Lieber Institute for Brain Development R/Medicine August 25, 2022 Keri Martinowich Stephanie C Hicks Lieber Institute Johns Hopkins @lcolladotor #spatialLIBD Kristen R Maynard Lieber Institute https://speakerdeck.com/ lcolladotor/medicine-2022
  2. The spatial architecture of the brain is fundamentally connected to

    its function 2 chartdiagram.com slideshare.net

    human brain Bulk RNA-seq Single cell/nucleus RNA-seq Spatial transcriptomics
  4. Laminar position of a cell influences its gene expression, morphology,

    physiology, and function 4 Kwan et al., 2012, Development
  5. Study design for Visium experiments in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)

    6 Maynard, Collado-Torres, et al, Nat Neuro, 2021
  6. Visualizing gene expression in a histological context 7 logcounts logcounts

    logcounts Maynard, Collado-Torres, et al, Nat Neuro, 2021
  7. 2 pairs spatial adjacent replicates x subject = 12 sections

    8 Subject 1 Subject 2 Subject 3 Adjacent spatial replicates (0µm) Adjacent spatial replicates (300µm) PCP4 Maynard, Collado-Torres, et al, Nat Neuro, 2021
  8. Three statistical models to assess laminar enrichment “ANOVA” model 10

    “Enrichment” model “Pairwise” model Is any layer different? Is one layer > the rest? Is layer X > layer Y? Maynard, Collado-Torres, et al, Nat Neuro, 2021
  9. 11 Identification of laminar enriched genes “Enrichment” model Is one

    layer > the rest? Group FDR<0.05 Layer1 3033 Layer2 1562 Layer3 183 Layer4 740 Layer5 643 Layer6 379 WM 9124 Only a subset of previous layer marker genes in mouse and human showed laminar association Maynard, Collado-Torres, et al, Nat Neuro, 2021
  10. 13 SpatialExperiment: infrastructure for spatially resolved transcriptomics data in R

    using Bioconductor Righelli, Weber, Crowell, et al, Bioinformatics, 2022 DOI https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btac299 Dario Righellli Helena L Crowell @drighelli @CrowellHL Lukas M Weber @lmwebr
  11. 15 We provided a framework for comparing clustering results vs

    the manual annotation (aka, ground truth)
  12. Openly sharing data accelerates science: share and you will reap

    the benefits too! 18 Us: 346 days Them: 271 days Total sequential (fictional): 617 days Reality (preprint to BayesSpace pub): 461 days Difference saved: 156 days Preprints: 190 days
  13. 19 What helps also: provide a ground truth and a

    path towards benchmarking • Fully unsupervised was initially very far from the ground truth • Truth has caveats and should be considered a guideline • Ultimately, the goal is not to fully reproduce the ground truth, but learn what helps and what doesn’t • Ground truth will evolve ;)
  14. 20 High accessions, citations, AltMetric, … This data is way

    more challenging than the mouse: mouse you are looking at different brain regions
  15. The Development Process - Making a module - New, experimental

    software can change dramatically (function and syntax) between versions - Promotes collaboration by allowing two researchers to share exact code and instantly run software without special set-up SpatialExperiment release 3.14 SpatialExperiment devel 3.15 module load tangram/1.0.2 module load cell2location/0.8a0 module load spagcn/1.2.0 @Nick-Eagles (GH) Nicholas J Eagles https://github.com/LieberInstitute/jhpce_mod_source https://github.com/LieberInstitute/jhpce_module_config
  16. The Development Process - Regular interaction with software authors to

    clarify functionality and report bugs - Documentation for code and author responsiveness on GitHub can be critical in successfully applying software to our data @Nick-Eagles (GH) Nicholas J Eagles
  17. Documentation + wrapper functions + tests (GitHub Actions + Bioconductor)

    Brain from the Top to Bottom in McGill University Progressive neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease
  21. Integration of proteomic and transcriptomic data with Visium-Immunofluorescence (Visium-IF) 27

    Can we define pathology-associated changes in gene expression in Alzheimer’s Disease in human brain?

  23. Visium * ~5k spots in honeycomb * gene expression per

    spot * tissue (H&E staining) Immunofluorescence (IF) * multi-channel (6) images * identifies morphological features of interest * large: might be broken in tiles Channel 1 * triangle feature Channel 2 * cloud feature Channel 6 * xyz feature Tissue (bright field image) Visium spot Channel 1 feature Channel 2 feature + Visium-IF raw data: 2 types

  25. 31 Registering pathology maps with gene expression spots Madhavi Tippani

    @MadhaviTippani (Kwon et al., in preparation) Prop IF/Spot VistoSeg now supports Visium-IF
  26. Annotating and pseudo-bulking spots by pathology for differential expression analyses

  27. Identification of genes associated with AD pathology 33 (Kwon et

    al., in preparation) p<0.05 in targeted sequencing panel
  28. Working with Visium • It’s very powerful • Open source

    friendly • 6.5 mm2 too restrictive? Opportunity for creativity • Visium and Visium-IF have required the development of software • It’s fun to work on something where there are no answers on Google =) but also a challenge 34
  29. Future Directions • Integration of proteomic and transcriptomic data •

    Visium-IF AD proof-of-concept • Integration of snRNA-seq and Visium data • Visium + snRNA-seq on LC • Increasing resolution (# spots) and area (array size) • Visium HD • Leveraging rich histology/imaging data • Clustering (SpaGCN), spot deconvolution, etc. • Building educational resources • Completing Orchestrating Spatially Resolved Transcriptomics Analysis with Bioconductor (OSTA) 35
