Area of Science:

  • Cellular biology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Genomics

Background:

  • Cellular responses involve epigenetic and transcriptional adaptations.
  • Adaptive cellular responses can alter cell type proportions within tissues.
  • Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables cell type quantification in complex samples.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the lack of robust bioinformatics tools for differential proportion analysis in scRNA-seq data.
  • To introduce Scanpro, a modular tool for analyzing shifts in cell type composition.
  • To provide a solution for both replicated and unreplicated scRNA-seq datasets.

Main Methods:

  • Development of Scanpro, a Python-based modular bioinformatics tool.
  • Integration of Scanpro into existing Python bioinformatics frameworks.
  • Validation of Scanpro's accuracy and speed for proportion analysis.

Main Results:

  • Scanpro provides accurate and fast differential proportion analysis.
  • The tool supports scRNA-seq datasets with or without biological replicates.
  • Scanpro is designed for ease of use by both experts and beginners.

Conclusions:

  • Scanpro fills a critical gap in bioinformatics tools for scRNA-seq data analysis.
  • The tool facilitates robust identification of differential cell type composition.
  • Scanpro enhances the analysis of cellular adaptive responses using scRNA-seq.
