A categorization of spatial transcriptomics methods for cell-cell communication analysis.

Cell-cell communication (CCC) is involved in regulating cellular behavior in tissues. Spatial transcriptomics adds local context to gene expression, enabling more biologically grounded CCC inference than single-cell RNA-seq alone. Rapid method development has yielded diverse CCC methods, each addressing distinct biolog...

Robust identification of cell-cell communication heterogeneity in single cells.

Cell-cell communication modulates cell fate decisions by relaying information across tissues and inducing intracellular responses mediated by gene regulatory networks. Although the inference of cell-cell communication from high-throughput data is gaining popularity, studying how communication pathways operate across bi...
