Childhood-onset lupus nephritis is characterized by complex interactions between kidney stroma and infiltrating immune cells.

Children with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at increased risk of developing kidney disease, termed childhood-onset lupus nephritis (cLN). Single-cell transcriptomics of dissociated kidney tissue has advanced our understanding of LN pathogenesis, but loss of spatial resolution prevents interrogation of in situ cellular interactions. Using a technical advance in spatial transcriptomics, we generated a spatially resolved, single-cell resolution atlas of kidney tissue from eight patients with cLN and four control individuals.

Recent technological advancements have enabled spatially resolved transcriptomic profiling but at a multicellular resolution that is more cost-effective. The task of cell type deconvolution has been introduced to disentangle discrete cell types from such multicellular spots. However, existing benchmark datasets for cell type deconvolution are either generated from simulation or limited in scale, predominantly encompassing data on mice and are not designed for human immuno-oncology.

Single cell spatial transcriptomic profiling of childhood-onset lupus nephritis reveals complex interactions between kidney stroma and infiltrating immune cells.

Children with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at increased risk of developing kidney disease, termed childhood-onset lupus nephritis (cLN). Single cell transcriptomics of dissociated kidney tissue has advanced our understanding of LN pathogenesis, but loss of spatial resolution prevents interrogation of in situ cellular interactions. Using a technical advance in spatial transcriptomics, we generated a spatially resolved, single cell resolution atlas of kidney tissue (>400,000 cells) from eight cLN patients and two controls.
