I’ll be talking at the #ISMBECCB2025 about scCellFie and how we can use single-cell and spatial transcriptomics to study metabolism. If you are interested, join the #SysMod COSI on Tue 22th at 5pm (room 01C) πŸ™Œ

How does tumour heterogeneity arise? How can we predict cancer cell plasticity? In 2 new studies, we trace #glioblastoma heterogeneity to a spatial cancer cell trajectory w. multimodal cell atlassing bit.ly/4mkrWgs & predict plasticity w. snRNA/ATAC+deep learning bit.ly/3FbI6Ic 🧡

🧱 In endometrial carcinoma, scCellFie revealed:
β€’ Spatially organized metabolic activities
β€’ Tumor-associated estrogen & kynurenine signaling
β€’ Metabolic tasks linked to tumorigenesis potential

⚠️ In endometriosis, we found:
β€’ Proinflammatory metabolism in macrophages
β€’ Increased glycolysis & lipid metabolism in epithelial cells
β€’ Shared metabolic shifts in eutopic & ectopic tissues

🚺 In the human endometrium, we captured metabolic rewiring across the menstrual cycle β€” including functions that help with tissue remodeling and managing oxidative stress.

πŸ”§ What is scCellFie?
A tool to infer interpretable metabolic insights from single-cell and spatial transcriptomics.
🧰 Key features:
β€’ Metabolic markers
β€’ Condition-specific changes
β€’ Spatial & temporal patterns
β€’ Metabolite-based cell communication

I’m happy to share that our scCellFie manuscript is finally on bioRxiv β€” a project that was an amazing opportunity to return to my roots in metabolism!
