两个或多个单细胞数据集的联合分析具有独特的挑战。特别是，在标准工作流程下，识别跨多个数据集存在的细胞群可能会有问题。Seurat v4包含一组方法，用于跨数据集匹配(或“对齐”)共享的细胞群。这些方法首先识别处于匹配生物状态的交叉数据集细胞(“锚”)，可以用于纠正数据集之间的技术差异(即批效应校正)，并在不同实验条件下执行比较scRNA-seq分析。
下面，我们使用了两种不同state（a resting or interferon-stimulated state）的人类PBMC细胞进行了比较分析。方法详细描述见： Stuart, Butler et al, 2019
整合目标：
接下来的教程，你使用Seurat整合程序可以了解一个复杂细胞类型的比较分析的概览。

对于下游分析创建一个整合的assay
鉴定两个数据集中都有的细胞类型
获取在control和stimulated细胞中都保守的cell markers
比较两个数据集来发现对于stimulated有响应的特异细胞类型

1.设置Seurat对象为了方便，我们将本次使用的数据封装在SeuratData包中。

# 加载包 library(Seurat) library(SeuratData) library(patchwork)# install dataset InstallData("ifnb")

加载数据，然后创建对象

# load dataset ifnb <- LoadData("ifnb")# split the dataset into a list of two seurat objects (stim and CTRL) ifnb.list <- SplitObject(ifnb, split.by = "stim")# normalize and identify variable features for each dataset independently ifnb.list <- lapply(X = ifnb.list, FUN = function(x) { x <- NormalizeData(x) x <- FindVariableFeatures(x, selection.method = "vst", nfeatures = 2000) })# 可以看到ifnb.list包含了两个Seurat对象：CTRL和STIM ifnb.list $CTRL An object of class Seurat 14053 features across 6548 samples within 1 assay Active assay: RNA (14053 features, 2000 variable features)$STIM An object of class Seurat 14053 features across 7451 samples within 1 assay Active assay: RNA (14053 features, 2000 variable features)# select features that are repeatedly variable across datasets for integration features <- SelectIntegrationFeatures(object.list = ifnb.list) head(features) [1] "HBB""HBA2" "HBA1" "CCL4" "CCL3" "CCL7"

2.进行整合 FindIntegrationAnchors()函数使用Seurat对象列表作为输入，来识别anchors。然后使用IntegrateData()函数用识别到的anchors来整合数据集。

immune.anchors <- FindIntegrationAnchors(object.list = ifnb.list, anchor.features = features)# this command creates an 'integrated' data assay immune.combined <- IntegrateData(anchorset = immune.anchors)

3.整合分析现在，我们可以对所有细胞进行整合分析了

# specify that we will perform downstream analysis on the corrected data note that the original # unmodified data still resides in the 'RNA' assay DefaultAssay(immune.combined) <- "integrated"# Run the standard workflow for visualization and clustering immune.combined <- ScaleData(immune.combined, verbose = FALSE) immune.combined <- RunPCA(immune.combined, npcs = 30, verbose = FALSE) immune.combined <- RunUMAP(immune.combined, reduction = "pca", dims = 1:30) immune.combined <- FindNeighbors(immune.combined, reduction = "pca", dims = 1:30) immune.combined <- FindClusters(immune.combined, resolution = 0.5)

可视化

# Visualization p1 <- DimPlot(immune.combined, reduction = "umap", group.by = "stim") p2 <- DimPlot(immune.combined, reduction = "umap", label = TRUE, repel = TRUE) p1 + p2

下面，我们来识别 cluster 6 (NK cells)的保守markers。

# For performing differential expression after integration, we switch back to the original data DefaultAssay(immune.combined) <- "RNA" nk.markers <- FindConservedMarkers(immune.combined, ident.1 = 6, grouping.var = "stim", verbose = FALSE) head(nk.markers)

我们可以探索这些基因，然后帮助我们注释细胞类型。

FeaturePlot(immune.combined, features = c("CD3D", "SELL", "CREM", "CD8A", "GNLY", "CD79A", "FCGR3A", "CCL2", "PPBP"), min.cutoff = "q9")

immune.combined <- RenameIdents(immune.combined, `0` = "CD14 Mono", `1` = "CD4 Naive T", `2` = "CD4 Memory T", `3` = "CD16 Mono", `4` = "B", `5` = "CD8 T", `6` = "NK", `7` = "T activated", `8` = "DC", `9` = "B Activated", `10` = "Mk", `11` = "pDC", `12` = "Eryth", `13` = "Mono/Mk Doublets", #`14` = "HSPC") DimPlot(immune.combined, label = TRUE)

image-20210411152407052.png DotPlot()函数的split.by参数可以在不同条件下查看保守的细胞类型标记，显示表达水平和细胞在一个簇中表达任何给定基因的百分比。在这里，我们为我们的13个集群中的每一个绘制了2-3个强标记基因。

Idents(immune.combined) <- factor(Idents(immune.combined), levels = c("HSPC", "Mono/Mk Doublets", "pDC", "Eryth", "Mk", "DC", "CD14 Mono", "CD16 Mono", "B Activated", "B", "CD8 T", "NK", "T activated", "CD4 Naive T", "CD4 Memory T"))markers.to.plot <- c("CD3D", "CREM", "HSPH1", "SELL", "GIMAP5", "CACYBP", "GNLY", "NKG7", "CCL5", "CD8A", "MS4A1", "CD79A", "MIR155HG", "NME1", "FCGR3A", "VMO1", "CCL2", "S100A9", "HLA-DQA1", "GPR183", "PPBP", "GNG11", "HBA2", "HBB", "TSPAN13", "IL3RA", "IGJ", "PRSS57") DotPlot(immune.combined, features = markers.to.plot, cols = c("blue", "red"), dot.scale = 8, split.by = "stim") + RotatedAxis()

library(ggplot2) library(cowplot) theme_set(theme_cowplot()) t.cells <- subset(immune.combined, idents = "CD4 Naive T") Idents(t.cells) <- "stim" avg.t.cells <- as.data.frame(log1p(AverageExpression(t.cells, verbose = FALSE)$RNA)) avg.t.cells$gene <- rownames(avg.t.cells)cd14.mono <- subset(immune.combined, idents = "CD14 Mono") Idents(cd14.mono) <- "stim" avg.cd14.mono <- as.data.frame(log1p(AverageExpression(cd14.mono, verbose = FALSE)$RNA)) avg.cd14.mono$gene <- rownames(avg.cd14.mono)genes.to.label = c("ISG15", "LY6E", "IFI6", "ISG20", "MX1", "IFIT2", "IFIT1", "CXCL10", "CCL8") p1 <- ggplot(avg.t.cells, aes(CTRL, STIM)) + geom_point() + ggtitle("CD4 Naive T Cells") p1 <- LabelPoints(plot = p1, points = genes.to.label, repel = TRUE)p2 <- ggplot(avg.cd14.mono, aes(CTRL, STIM)) + geom_point() + ggtitle("CD14 Monocytes") p2 <- LabelPoints(plot = p2, points = genes.to.label, repel = TRUE) p1 + p2

文章图片
image-20210411153909449.png 上面的图中，也是作者事先就知道了在两个条件中差异表达的基因：genes.to.label = c("ISG15", "LY6E", "IFI6", "ISG20", "MX1", "IFIT2", "IFIT1", "CXCL10", "CCL8")，我们的话需要用另外的方法来得到这些基因。
如你所见，许多相同的基因在这两种细胞类型中都上调，可能代表了保守的干扰素反应途径。
因为我们有信心在不同的条件下识别出共同的细胞类型，我们可以问什么基因在同一类型的细胞的不同条件下发生改变。

immune.combined$celltype.stim <- paste(Idents(immune.combined), immune.combined$stim, sep = "_") immune.combined$celltype <- Idents(immune.combined) Idents(immune.combined) <- "celltype.stim" b.interferon.response <- FindMarkers(immune.combined, ident.1 = "B_STIM", ident.2 = "B_CTRL", verbose = FALSE)head(b.interferon.response, n = 15) p_val avg_log2FC pct.1 pct.2p_val_adj ISG158.657899e-1564.5965018 0.998 0.240 1.216695e-151 IFIT33.536522e-1514.5004998 0.964 0.052 4.969874e-147 IFI61.204612e-1494.2335821 0.966 0.080 1.692841e-145 ISG209.370954e-1472.9393901 1.000 0.672 1.316900e-142 IFIT18.181640e-1384.1290319 0.912 0.032 1.149766e-133 MX11.445540e-1213.2932564 0.907 0.115 2.031417e-117 LY6E2.944234e-1173.1187120 0.894 0.152 4.137531e-113 TNFSF10 2.273307e-1103.7772611 0.792 0.025 3.194678e-106 IFIT21.676837e-1063.6547696 0.786 0.035 2.356459e-102 B2M3.500771e-950.6062999 1.000 1.0004.919633e-91 PLSCR13.279290e-942.8249220 0.797 0.1174.608387e-90 IRF71.475385e-922.5888616 0.838 0.1902.073358e-88 CXCL101.350777e-825.2509496 0.641 0.0101.898247e-78 UBE2L62.783283e-812.1427434 0.851 0.3003.911348e-77 PSMB92.638374e-761.6367800 0.941 0.5733.707707e-72

另外一个展示基因表达变化的方法是使用FeaturePlot()或VlnPlot()，使用split.by参数。比如：CD3D and GNLY是非常经典的T cells and NK/CD8 T cells的marker，他们不受刺激的影响，在STRIM和CTRL中表现出相似的表达模式。
在另外一方面，IFI6 and ISG15基因在所有细胞中都上调，是干扰素响应的核心基因。
最后，CD14 and CXCL10对干扰素响应表现出特异的细胞类型差异。在CD14 monocytes细胞中，受干扰素刺激后表达降低，而这可能导致监督分析框架中的错误分类，强调了整合分析的价值。
在干扰素刺激后，CXCL10在单核细胞和B细胞中明显上调，但在其他细胞类型中没有上调。

FeaturePlot(immune.combined, features = c("CD3D", "GNLY", "IFI6"), split.by = "stim", max.cutoff = 3, cols = c("grey", "red"))

plots <- VlnPlot(immune.combined, features = c("LYZ", "ISG15", "CXCL10"), split.by = "stim", group.by = "celltype", pt.size = 0, combine = FALSE)wrap_plots(plots = plots, ncol = 1)

详细细节参考：manuscript or our SCTransform vignette。
下面看看怎么使用sctransform标准化的方法来修改Seurat的整合工作流，主要有以下几个方面的不同：

使用SCTransform()而不是NormalizeData()标准化单个数据集合。
在sctransform中使用3,000 or more features来进入下游分析。
PrepSCTIntegration()来识别锚点(anchors)
使用FindIntegrationAnchors(), andIntegrateData()的时候设置normalization.method参数为SCT。
运行基于sctransform的工作流程时，包括整合，不需要运行ScaleData函数。

那么完整的工作六如下：

LoadData("ifnb") ifnb.list <- SplitObject(ifnb, split.by = "stim") ifnb.list <- lapply(X = ifnb.list, FUN = SCTransform) features <- SelectIntegrationFeatures(object.list = ifnb.list, nfeatures = 3000) ifnb.list <- PrepSCTIntegration(object.list = ifnb.list, anchor.features = features) immune.anchors <- FindIntegrationAnchors(object.list = ifnb.list, normalization.method = "SCT", anchor.features = features) immune.combined.sct <- IntegrateData(anchorset = immune.anchors, normalization.method = "SCT") immune.combined.sct <- RunPCA(immune.combined.sct, verbose = FALSE) immune.combined.sct <- RunUMAP(immune.combined.sct, reduction = "pca", dims = 1:30) p1 <- DimPlot(immune.combined.sct, reduction = "umap", group.by = "stim") p2 <- DimPlot(immune.combined.sct, reduction = "umap", group.by = "seurat_annotations", label = TRUE, repel = TRUE) p1 + p2
