Overview

Welcome to the spatialDLPFC project! This project involves 3 data types as well as several interactive websites, all of which you are publicly accessible for you to browse and download.

In this project we studied spatially resolved and single nucleus transcriptomics data from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) from postmortem human brain samples. From 10 neurotypical controls we generated spatially-resolved transcriptomics data using using 10x GenomicsVisiumacross the anterior, middle, and posterior DLPFC (n = 30). We also generated single nucleus RNA-seq (snRNA-seq) data using 10x GenomicsChromiumfrom 19 of these tissue blocks. We further generated data from 4 adjacent tissue slices with 10x Genomics Visium Spatial Proteogenomics(SPG), that can be used to benchmark spot deconvolution algorithms. This work is being was performed by the Keri Martinowich, Leonardo Collado-Torres, and Kristen Maynard teams at theLieber Institute for Brain Development as well as Stephanie Hicks’s group from JHBSPH’s Biostatistics Department.

This project involves the GitHub repositoriesLieberInstitute/spatialDLPFCandLieberInstitute/DLPFC_snRNAseq.

Study Design

Study design to generate paired single nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) and spatially-resolved transcriptomic data across DLPFC. (A) DLPFC tissue blocks were dissected across the rostral-caudal axis from 10 adult neurotypical control postmortem human brains, including anterior (Ant), middle (Mid), and posterior (Post) positions (n=3 blocks per donor, n=30 blocks total). The same tissue blocks were used for snRNA-seq (10x Genomics 3’ gene expression assay, n=1-2 blocks per donor, n=19 samples) and spatial transcriptomics (10x Genomics Visium spatial gene expression assay, n=3 blocks per donor, n=30 samples). (B) Paired snRNA-seq and Visium data were used to identify data-driven spatial domains (SpDs) and cell types, perform spot deconvolution, conduct cell-cell communication analyses, and spatially register companion PsychENCODE snRNA-seq DLPFC data. (C)_t_-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) summarizing layer resolution cell types identified by snRNA-seq. (D) Tissue block orientation and morphology was confirmed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and single molecule fluorescent in situ hybridization (smFISH) with RNAscope (SLC17A7 marking excitatory neurons in pink, _MBP_marking white matter (WM) in green, RELN marking layer (L)1 in yellow, and NR4A2 marking L6 in orange). Scale bar is 2mm. Spotplots depicting log transformed normalized expression (logcounts) of SNAP25, MBP, and PCP4 in the Visium data confirm the presence of gray matter, WM, and cortical layers, respectively. (E) Schematic of unsupervised SpD identification and registration using BayesSpace SpDs at _k_=7. Enrichment _t_-statistics computed on BayesSpace SpDs were correlated with manual histological layer annotations from (Maynard, Collado-Torres et al., 2021, Nat Neuro) to map SpDs to known histological layers. The heatmap of correlation values summarizes the relationship between BayesSpace SpDs and classic histological layers. Higher confidence annotations (⍴ > 0.25, merge ratio = 0.1) are marked with an “X”.

Data Access

We highly value open data sharing and believe that doing so accelerates science, as was the case between ourHumanPilot and the external BayesSpaceprojects, documented on this slide.

Processed Data

spatialLIBD also allows you to access the data from this project as ready to use R objects. That is, a:

You can use thezellkonverterBioconductor package to convert any of them into PythonAnnData objects. If you browse our code, you can find examples of such conversions.

If you are unfamiliar with these tools, you might want to check theLIBD rstats club(check and search keywords on theschedule) videos and resources.

Installing spatialLIBD

Get the latest stable R release fromCRAN. Then install spatialLIBD fromBioconductor with the following code:

Install BiocManager in order to install Bioconductor packages properly

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) { install.packages("BiocManager") }

Check that you have a valid R/Bioconductor installation

BiocManager::valid()

Now install spatialLIBD from Bioconductor

(this version has been tested on macOS, winOS, linux)

BiocManager::install("spatialLIBD")

If you need the development version from GitHub you can use the following:

BiocManager::install("LieberInstitute/spatialLIBD")

Note that this version might include changes that have not been tested

properly on all operating systems.

R objects

Using spatialLIBD you can access the spatialDLPFC transcriptomics data from the 10x Genomics Visium platform. For example, this is the code you can use to access the spatially-resolved data. For more details, check the help file for fetch_data().

Check that you have a recent version of spatialLIBD installed

stopifnot(packageVersion("spatialLIBD") >= "1.11.6")

Download the spot-level data

spe <- spatialLIBD::fetch_data(type = "spatialDLPFC_Visium")

This GitHub repository is organized along the R/Bioconductor-powered Team Data Science group guidelines. It aims to follow theLieberInstitute/template_projectstructure, though most of the code/analysis output is saved atprocessed-data/rdata/spe directory unlike what’s specified in the template structure. This is due to historical reasons.
