Abstract Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-Seq) is widely used to reveal the heterogeneity and dynamics of tissues, organisms, complex diseases, but its analyses still suffer from multiple grand challenges, including sequencing sparsity differential patterns in gene expression. We introduce scGNN (single-cell graph neural network) provide a hypothesis-free deep learning framework for scRNA-Seq analyses. This formulates aggregates cell–cell relationships with networks models heterogeneous...

Abstract Regulatory T (Treg) cells are essential for maintaining immune homeostasis and tolerance, but the mechanisms regulating stability function of Treg have not been fully elucidated. Here we show SUMO-specific protease 3 (SENP3) is a pivotal regulator that functions by controlling SUMOylation nuclear localization BACH2. cell-specific deletion Senp3 results in cell activation, autoimmune symptoms enhanced antitumor responses. SENP3-mediated BACH2 deSUMOylation prevents export BACH2,...

Abstract Due to the rare incidence of spinal cord astrocytomas, their molecular features remain unclear. Here, we characterized landscapes mutations in H3 K27M, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 ( IDH1 ) R132H, BRAF V600E, and TERT promoter 83 diffuse astrocytic tumors. Among these samples, thirty-five patients had K27M mutation; this mutant could be observed histological grade II (40%), III IV (20%) astrocytomas. were absent 58 cases tested. The V600E mutation (7/57) was only H3-wildtype...

Spatially resolved transcriptomics provides a new way to define spatial contexts and understand the pathogenesis of complex human diseases. Although some computational frameworks can characterize context via various clustering methods, detailed architectures functional zonation often cannot be revealed localized due limited capacities associating information. We present RESEPT, deep-learning framework for characterizing visualizing tissue architecture from spatially transcriptomics. Given...

Abstract Background Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) through direct lysis of infected lung epithelial cells, which releases damage-associated molecular patterns and induces a pro-inflammatory cytokine milieu causing systemic inflammation. Anti-viral anti-inflammatory agents have shown limited therapeutic efficacy. Soluble CD24 (CD24Fc) blunts the broad inflammatory response induced by via binding to extracellular high...

Abstract Identifying spatially variable genes (SVGs) is critical in linking molecular cell functions with tissue phenotypes. Spatially resolved transcriptomics captures cellular-level gene expression corresponding spatial coordinates two or three dimensions and can be used to infer SVGs effectively. However, current computational methods may not achieve reliable results often cannot handle three-dimensional transcriptomic data. Here we introduce BSP (big-small patch), a non-parametric model...

Intratumoral regulatory T cells (Tregs) are key mediators of cancer immunotherapy resistance, including anti-PD-(L)1 immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). The mechanisms driving Treg infiltration into the tumor microenvironment (TME) and consequence on CD8+ cell exhaustion remains elusive. Herein, we report that heat shock protein gp96 (GRP94) is indispensable for infiltration, primarily through gp96's roles in chaperoning integrins. Among various gp96-dependent integrins, found only LFA-1 (αL...
