In silico cell-type deconvolution from bulk transcriptomics data is a powerful technique to gain insights into the cellular composition of complex tissues. While first-generation methods used precomputed expression signatures covering limited cell types and tissues, second-generation tools use single-cell RNA sequencing data to build custom signatu...
The human’s heart responds to tissue damage with persistent fibrotic scarring. Unlike humans, zebrafish exhibit the ability to repair cardiac injury and re-grow heart tissue throughout life. Here, we provide novel evidence for toll-like receptor 3 (tlr3) driving cardiac regeneration in zebrafish. Upon cardiac injury, survival is decreased in tlr3 -...
The human’s heart responds to tissue damage with persistent fibrotic scarring. Unlike humans, zebrafish can repair cardiac injury and re-grow heart tissue throughout life. Recently, Toll-like receptor 3 ( Tlr3 ) was identified as an important mediator of cardiac regeneration in neonatal mice. However, no functional analysis of tlr3 knock-out mutant...
Transcriptome deconvolution has emerged as a reliable technique to estimate cell-type abundances from bulk RNA sequencing data. Unlike their human equivalents, methods to quantify the cellular composition of complex tissues from murine transcriptomics are sparse and sometimes not easy to use. We extended the immunedeconv R package to facilitate the...
Motivation:
As complex tissues are typically composed of various cell types, deconvolution tools have been developed to computationally infer their cellular composition from bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data. To comprehensively assess deconvolution performance, gold-standard datasets are indispensable. Gold-standard, experimental techniques like...
