Inferring tumour purity and stromal and immune cell admixture from expression data.,NC,3013
单细胞转录组是揭示细胞异质性的的有力武器,鉴于肿瘤的异质性,这一点在肿瘤样本中表现尤为突出。所以肿瘤样本的单细胞转录组就不只是无监督地分个群那么简单,基于我们对肿瘤样本已经积累起来的生物学背景(如TCGA),我们可以从更多侧面来反映和说明肿瘤样本的异质性。
今天给大家介绍一款根据stromal和immune细胞比例估算肿瘤纯度的工具:ESTIMATE。之前是基于bulk表达谱来做的,在简书已经有详细的介绍了:
文章解读:
利用表达数据计算基质打分与免疫打分进而预测肿瘤纯度 --- ESTIMATE
代码实践:
使用ESTIMATE来根据stromal和immune细胞比例估算肿瘤纯度
ESTIMATE (E
stimation of ST
romal and I
mmune cells in MA
lignant T
umor tissues using E
xpression data) is a tool for predicting tumor purity
, and the presence of infiltrating stromal/immune cells in tumor tissues using gene expression data
. ESTIMATE algorithm is based on single sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and generates three scores:
- stromal score (that captures the presence of stroma in tumor tissue),
- immune score (that represents the infiltration of immune cells in tumor tissue), and
- estimate score (that infers tumor purity).
可以看到和目前单细胞转录组中有些基于富集的细胞类型定义还是很像的,根据一个基因list通过某种规则(这里是ssGSEA)来对细胞打分,进而推断出细胞的类型。
所以正如生信技能树在简书上所言:
其实对大部分使用该包的的文章来说,需要的反而是该包定义的2个基因集,stromal 和 immune , 列表是:

其实这R包的函数本不多:
# 安装一下
library(utils)
rforge <- "http://r-forge.r-project.org"
install.packages("estimate", repos=rforge, dependencies=TRUE)
在这里我们就不再?estimateScore
来一步一步执行示例数据了,虽然对于新手来说这一步往往是不能省略的。实在想看就看技能树的吧:使用ESTIMATE来根据stromal和immune细胞比例估算肿瘤纯度
我就想,这么好的工具单细胞能不能使用呢?我也是表达谱啊,应该是可以的吧,如果可以,Seurat的数据格式可不可以直接做呢?
带着一系列疑问我们来试试。
无疑,作为表达谱我是合格的。关键就是数据格式的问题了。我们发现这个R包操作的都是路径,就连表达谱要求的都是:?estimate::filterCommonGenes
。如果想传入一个Seurat的对象我们是要改造一个函数了。
myfilterCommonGenes <- edit(estimate::filterCommonGenes)
看到这个函数的文件读入是用read.table
的:
function (input.f, output.f, id = c("GeneSymbol", "EntrezID"))
{
stopifnot((is.character(input.f) && length(input.f) == 1 &&
nzchar(input.f)) || (inherits(input.f, "connection") &&
isOpen(input.f, "r")))
stopifnot((is.character(output.f) && length(output.f) ==
1 && nzchar(output.f)))
id <- match.arg(id)
input.df <- read.table(input.f, header = TRUE, row.names = 1,
sep = "\t", quote = "", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
merged.df <- merge(common_genes, input.df, by.x = id, by.y = "row.names")
rownames(merged.df) <- merged.df$GeneSymbol
merged.df <- merged.df[, -1:-ncol(common_genes)]
print(sprintf("Merged dataset includes %d genes (%d mismatched).",
nrow(merged.df), nrow(common_genes) - nrow(merged.df)))
outputGCT(merged.df, output.f)
}
我想直接把seurat的某个gene-cell矩阵对象给它,于是就把输入改成:
myfilterCommonGenes <- function(input.f, output.f, id = c("GeneSymbol", "EntrezID"))
{
id <- match.arg(id)
input.df <- input.f
merged.df <- merge(common_genes, input.df, by.x = id, by.y = "row.names")
rownames(merged.df) <- merged.df$GeneSymbol
merged.df <- merged.df[, -1:-ncol(common_genes)]
print(sprintf("Merged dataset includes %d genes (%d mismatched).",
nrow(merged.df), nrow(common_genes) - nrow(merged.df)))
outputGCT(merged.df, output.f)
}
为了让改造后的函数依然在estimated的环境之中:
environment(myfilterCommonGenes) <- environment(estimate::filterCommonGenes)
我们来试试,读入我们熟悉的pbmc数据,注意这里的数据仅作为Seurat的演示示例:
pbmc <- readRDS('G:\\Desktop\\Desktop\\RStudio\\single_cell\\filtered_gene_bc_matrices\\hg19pbmc_tutorial.rds')
DefaultAssay(pbmc) <- "RNA"
myfilterCommonGenes(input.f= as.matrix(pbmc@assays$RNA@data), output.f=paste0("matrixgenes.gct"), id="GeneSymbol")
一行提示:
[1] "Merged dataset includes 7295 genes (3117 mismatched)."
同时,在当前路径下生成了matrixgenes.gct
,然后我们启动打分程序:
?estimateScore # 还是建议大家多问
# c("affymetrix", "agilent", "illumina")
estimateScore(paste0("matrixgenes.gct"),paste0("estimate_score.gct"), platform= "affymetrix")
[1] "1 gene set: StromalSignature overlap= 58"
[1] "2 gene set: ImmuneSignature overlap= 141" # 可以看到overlap的基因比较少,我们毕竟是10X的数据啊。
我们比较感兴趣的就是这个打分文件estimate_score.gct
,我们来看那看是怎样的,以及如何把它写入Seurat对象中。
estimate_score <- read.table(paste0("estimate_score.gct"),header = F,skip=2,stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
estimate_score <- t(estimate_score)
rownames(estimate_score) <- estimate_score[,1]
colnames(estimate_score) <- estimate_score[2,]
estimate_score <- estimate_score[-c(1:2),]
estimate_score[1:4,1:4]
读进来的被字符串化了:
Description StromalScore ImmuneScore ESTIMATEScore

所以AddMetaData
要处理一下:
pbmc<-AddMetaData(pbmc,metadata = estimate_score,col.name = colnames(df))
pbmc@meta.data$StromalScore <- as.numeric(as.vector(pbmc@meta.data$StromalScore))
pbmc@meta.data$ImmuneScore <- as.numeric(as.vector(pbmc@meta.data$ImmuneScore))
pbmc@meta.data$TumorPurity <- as.numeric(as.vector(pbmc@meta.data$TumorPurity))
pbmc@meta.data$ESTIMATEScore <- as.numeric(as.vector(pbmc@meta.data$ESTIMATEScore))
可以看到给每个细胞都打了分,bulk的一个样本是一个组织,可以用肿瘤纯度,单个细胞也还是有的吗?所以,是不是可以用某一群的平均表达谱来做呢?其实看到这只是根据基因列表的打分机制,这也未尝不可。

可视化一下,看看不同分群下,"StromalScore" "ImmuneScore" "ESTIMATEScore" "TumorPurity" 四个分数的比例:
p1<- RidgePlot(pbmc,features = "StromalScore")
p2<- RidgePlot(pbmc,features = "ImmuneScore")
p3<- RidgePlot(pbmc,features = "TumorPurity")
p4<- RidgePlot(pbmc,features = "ESTIMATEScore")
# p4<- Seurat::CombinePlots(c(p1 ,p2,p3,p4))
library(gridExtra)
grid.arrange(p1 ,p2,p3,p4,ncol = 2 )
就TumorPurity 来绘制熟悉的箱型图:
ggplot(pbmc@meta.data, aes(x=RNA_snn_res.0.5, y=TumorPurity,fill=RNA_snn_res.0.5)) +
geom_boxplot(notch=TRUE)
严格的话,可以做一下显著性检验啊,这里我们就不过了。我比较好奇的是这四个是什么关系?为什么还有TumorPurity ,ESTIMATEScore?
library(GGally)
ggpairs(pbmc@meta.data[,c("StromalScore","ImmuneScore","TumorPurity","ESTIMATEScore","seurat_clusters")],
mapping = aes(color = seurat_clusters))
可以看到TumorPurity ,ESTIMATEScore是负相关的关系,其实知道一个就可以了。结合这些可视化的结果可以为我们了解哪些群的肿瘤纯度如何,从这个侧面来解释细胞的异质性。
那么有没有其他软件呢?显然是有的,一个可以用的就是Xcell了:https://github.com/dviraran/xCell
xCell is a gene signatures-based method
learned from thousands of pure cell types from various sources. xCell applies a novel technique for reducing associations between closely related cell types. xCell signatures were validated using extensive in-silico simulations and also cytometry immunophenotyping
, and were shown to outperform previous methods. xCell allows researchers to reliably portray the cellular heterogeneity landscape of tissue expression profiles.
