Spatial and single-cell transcriptomics reveal cellular heterogeneity and a novel cancer-promoting Treg cell subset in human clear-cell renal cell carcinoma by Lijuan Wang, Qian He, Weijun Qin, Xiyu Song, Yumeng Zhu, Wenwen Geng, Jianhua Jiao, Hongjiao Liu, Ruo Chen, Xiuxuan Sun, Jiejie Geng, Zhinan Chen

“…Background Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common histologic type of RCC. However, the spatial and functional heterogeneity of immunosuppressive cells and the mechanisms by which their interactions promote immunosuppression in the ccRCC have not been thoroughly investigated.Methods To further investigate the cellular and regional heterogeneity of ccRCC, we analyzed single-cell and spatial transcriptome RNA sequencing data from four patients, which were obtained from samples from multiple regions, including the tumor core, tumor-normal interface, and distal normal tissue. …”
