Computational Analysis of High-Dimensional Mass Cytometry Data from Clinical Tissue Samples.

Methods Mol Biol

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.

Published: March 2020

The advent of mass cytometry has resulted in the generation of high-dimensional, single-cell expression data sets from clinical samples. These data sets cannot be effectively analyzed using traditional approaches. Instead, new approaches using dimensionality reduction and network analysis techniques have been implemented to assess these data. Here, detailed methods are described for analyzing immune cell expression from clinical samples using network analyses. Specifically, details are given for performing SCAFFoLD and CITRUS analyses. The methods described will use immune cell tumor infiltrate as an example.

Background: While most thyroid nodules are benign, 7-15% are malignant. Patients with indeterminate thyroid nodules (specifically Bethesda IV/Thy3f) often undergo diagnostic hemithyroidectomy to reach a diagnosis on final histology. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of circulating large extracellular vesicles as diagnostic biomarkers in patients presenting with Thy3f thyroid nodules.

The objective of the present study was to investigate the role and mechanism of bone marrow microenvironmental cells in regulating the mitochondrial mass of leukemia cells, and to uncover the mechanism of leukemia progression at the metabolic level. A mouse model of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) induced by the overexpression of the MLL-AF9 (MA9) fusion protein was established, and the bone marrow cells of AML mice were transplanted into mitochondrial fluorescence reporter mice expressing the Dendra2 protein (mito-Dendra2 mice). The proportion of Dendra2 cells in bone marrow leukemia cells at different stages of AML was quantified by flow cytometry.

Microglia play a critical role in maintaining central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis and display remarkable plasticity in their response to inflammatory stimuli. However, the specific signaling profiles that microglia adopt during such challenges remain incompletely understood. Traditional transcriptomic approaches provide valuable insights, but fail to capture dynamic post-translational changes.
