Idiosyncratic and generic single nuclei and spatial transcriptional patterns in papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancers

Adrien Tourneur, Joel Rodrigues Vitória, Manuel Saiselet…·Vincent Detours

This study uses single nuclei RNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics to analyze transcriptional patterns in papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancers, revealing idiosyncratic and generic transcriptional variations and EMT-related features.

Sox9-dependent plasticity of esophageal progenitors is fine-tuned by cues from the microenvironment

Louison Descampe, Benjamin Dassy, Fadi Charara…·Benjamin Beck

The paper shows that Sox9-dependent plasticity in esophageal progenitors is regulated by Hedgehog-induced TGF-β and BMP pathways, and can be modulated by Ibuprofen in vivo.

Transcriptional output, cell types densities and normalization in spatial transcriptomics

Manuel Saiselet, Joel Rodrigues Vitória, Adrien Tourneur…·Vincent Detours

The paper shows that total read counts in spatial transcriptomics spots reflect cell numbers and biology, and that normalization by total read counts can distort cell-type-related expression.
