# SeuratExtend: An Enhanced Toolkit for scRNA-seq Analysis
## Overview
`SeuratExtend` is an R package designed to provide an improved and easy-to-use toolkit for scRNA-seq analysis and visualization, built upon the Seurat object. While `Seurat` is a widely-used tool in the R community that offers a foundational framework for scRNA-seq analysis, it has limitations when it comes to more advanced analysis and customized visualization. `SeuratExtend` expands upon `Seurat` by offering an array of enhanced visualization tools, an integrated functional and pathway analysis pipeline, seamless integration with popular Python tools, and a suite of utility functions for data manipulation and presentation. Designed to be user-friendly even for beginners, the package retains a level of professionalism that ensures rigorous analysis.
**Key Features**:
- **Enhanced Data Visualization**: Includes heatmaps, violin plots, dimensional reduction (UMAP) plots, waterfall plots, dot plots, proportion bars, volcano plots, and GSEA plots.
- **Integrated Functional and Pathway Analysis**: Supports GO and Reactome databases, with the option to use custom databases.
- **Python Tool Integration**: Easily apply tools like scVelo, SCENIC, and Palantir within R using the Seurat object.
- **Utility Functions**: Assorted functions for calculations and color selections to streamline your scRNA-seq analysis.

### [FAQ](vignettes/FAQ.md)
## Quick Start-Up Guide
This quick start-up guide provides an overview of the most frequently
used functions in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis. After
running the standard Seurat pipeline (refer to this [Seurat pbmc3k
tutorial](https://satijalab.org/seurat/articles/pbmc3k_tutorial)), you
should have a Seurat object ready for further analysis. Below, we
illustrate the use of a subset of the pbmc dataset as an example to
demonstrate various functionalities of the `SeuratExtend` package.
### Visualizing Clusters
``` r
library(Seurat)
library(SeuratExtend)
# Visualizing cell clusters using DimPlot2
DimPlot2(pbmc, theme = theme_umap_arrows())
```
### Analyzing Cluster Distribution
To check the percentage of each cluster within different samples:
``` r
# Cluster distribution bar plot
ClusterDistrBar(pbmc$orig.ident, pbmc$cluster)
```
### Marker Gene Analysis with Heatmap
To examine the marker genes of each cluster and visualize them using a
heatmap:
``` r
# Calculating z-scores for variable features
genes.zscore <- CalcStats(
pbmc,
features = VariableFeatures(pbmc),
group.by = "cluster",
order = "p",
n = 4)
# Displaying heatmap
Heatmap(genes.zscore, lab_fill = "zscore")
```
### Enhanced Dot Plots (New in v1.1.0)
``` r
# Create grouped features
grouped_features <- list(
"B_cell_markers" = c("MS4A1", "CD79A"),
"T_cell_markers" = c("CD3D", "CD8A", "IL7R"),
"Myeloid_markers" = c("CD14", "FCGR3A", "S100A8")
)
DotPlot2(pbmc, features = grouped_features)
```
### Enhanced Visualization of Marker Genes
For visualizing specific markers via a violin plot that incorporates box
plots, median lines, and performs statistical testing:
``` r
# Specifying genes and cells of interest
genes <- c("CD3D", "CD14", "CD79A")
cells <- WhichCells(pbmc, idents = c("B cell", "CD8 T cell", "Mono CD14"))
# Violin plot with statistical analysis
VlnPlot2(
pbmc,
features = genes,
group.by = "cluster",
cells = cells,
stat.method = "wilcox.test")
```
### Visualizing Multiple Markers on UMAP
Displaying three markers on a single UMAP, using RYB coloring for each
marker:
``` r
FeaturePlot3(pbmc, feature.1 = "CD3D", feature.2 = "CD14", feature.3 = "CD79A", pt.size = 1)
```
### Create Volcano Plots (New in v1.1.0)
Create a basic volcano plot comparing two cell types:
``` r
VolcanoPlot(pbmc,
ident.1 = "B cell",
ident.2 = "CD8 T cell")
```
### Conducting Geneset Enrichment Analysis (GSEA)
Examining all the pathways of the immune process in the Gene Ontology
(GO) database, and visualizing by a heatmap that displays the top
pathways of each cluster across multiple cell types:
``` r
options(spe = "human")
pbmc <- GeneSetAnalysisGO(pbmc, parent = "immune_system_process", n.min = 5)
matr <- RenameGO(pbmc@misc$AUCell$GO$immune_system_process)
go_zscore <- CalcStats(
matr,
f = pbmc$cluster,
order = "p",
n = 3)
Heatmap(go_zscore, lab_fill = "zscore")
```
### Detailed Comparison of Two Cell Types
Using a GSEA plot to focus on a specific pathway for deeper comparative
analysis:
``` r
GSEAplot(
pbmc,
ident.1 = "B cell",
ident.2 = "CD8 T cell",
title = "GO:0042113 B cell activation (335g)",
geneset = GO_Data$human$GO2Gene[["GO:0042113"]])
```
### Importing and Visualizing SCENIC Analysis
After conducting Gene Regulatory Networks Analysis using pySCENIC,
import the output and visualize various aspects within Seurat:
``` r
# Downloading a pre-computed SCENIC loom file
scenic_loom_path <- file.path(tempdir(), "pyscenic_integrated-output.loom")
download.file("https://zenodo.org/records/10944066/files/pbmc3k_small_pyscenic_integrated-output.loom", scenic_loom_path, mode = "wb")
# Importing SCENIC Loom Files into Seurat
pbmc <- ImportPyscenicLoom(scenic_loom_path, seu = pbmc)
# Visualizing variables such as cluster, gene expression, and SCENIC regulon activity with customized colors
DimPlot2(
pbmc,
features = c("cluster", "orig.ident", "CEBPA", "tf_CEBPA"),
cols = list("tf_CEBPA" = "D"),
theme = NoAxes()
) + theme_umap_arrows()
```
``` r
# Creating a waterfall plot to compare regulon activity between cell types
DefaultAssay(pbmc) <- "TF"
WaterfallPlot(
pbmc,
features = rownames(pbmc),
ident.1 = "Mono CD14",
ident.2 = "CD8 T cell",
exp.transform = FALSE,
top.n = 20)
```
### Trajectory Analysis with Palantir in R
Trajectory analysis helps identify developmental pathways and
transitions between different cell states. In this section, we
demonstrate how to perform trajectory analysis using the Palantir
algorithm on a subset of myeloid cells, integrating everything within
the R environment.
#### Download and Prepare the Data
First, we download a small subset of myeloid cells to illustrate the
analysis:
``` r
# Download the example Seurat Object with myeloid cells
mye_small <- readRDS(url("https://zenodo.org/records/10944066/files/pbmc10k_mye_small_velocyto.rds", "rb"))
```
#### Diffusion Map Calculation
Palantir uses diffusion maps for dimensionality reduction to infer
trajectories. Here’s how to compute and visualize them:
``` r
# Compute diffusion map
mye_small <- Palantir.RunDM(mye_small)
# Visualize the first two diffusion map dimensions
DimPlot2(mye_small, reduction = "ms")
```
#### Pseudotime Calculation
Pseudotime ordering assigns each cell a time point in a trajectory,
indicating its progression along a developmental path:
``` r
# Calculate pseudotime with a specified start cell
mye_small <- Palantir.Pseudotime(mye_small, start_cell = "sample1_GAGAGGTAGCAGTACG-1")
# Store pseudotime results in meta.data for easy plotting
ps <- mye_small@misc$Palantir$Pseudotime
colnames(ps)[3:4] <- c("fate1", "fate2")
[email protected][,colnames(ps)] <- ps
# Visualize pseudotime and cell fates
DimPlot2(
mye_small,
features = colnames(ps),
reduction = "ms",
cols = list(Entropy = "D"),
theme = NoAxes())
```
#### Visualization Along Trajectories
Visualizing gene expression or regulon activity along calculated
trajectories can provide insights into dynamic changes:
``` r
# Create smoothed gene expression curves along trajectory
GeneTrendCurve.Palantir(
mye_small,
pseudotime.data = ps,
features = c("CD14", "FCGR3A")
)
```
``` r
# Create a gene trend heatmap for different fates
GeneTrendHeatmap.Palantir(
mye_small,
features = VariableFeatures(mye_small)[1:10],
pseudotime.data = ps,
lineage = "fate1"
)
```
### scVelo Analysis
scVelo is a Python tool used for RNA velocity analysis. We demonstrate
how to integrate and analyze velocyto-generated data within the Seurat
workflow using scVelo.
#### Preparing for scVelo
First, download the pre-calculated velocyto loom file:
``` r
# Download velocyto loom file
loom_path <- file.path(tempdir(), "pbmc10k_mye_small.loom")
download.file("https://zenodo.org/records/10944066/files/pbmc10k_mye_small.loom",
loom_path,
mode = "wb") # Use binary mode for Windows compatibility
# Set up the path for saving the AnnData object in the HDF5 (h5ad) format
if (.Platform$OS.type == "windows") {
adata_path <- normalizePath(file.path(tempdir(), "mye_small.h5ad"), winslash = "/")
} else {
adata_path <- file.path(tempdir(), "mye_small.h5ad")
}
# Integrate Seurat Object and velocyto loom into an AnnData object
scVelo.SeuratToAnndata(
mye_small,
filename = adata_path,
velocyto.loompath = loom_path,
prefix = "sample1_",
postfix = "-1"
)
```
#### Plotting scVelo Results
Once the data is processed, visualize the RNA velocity:
``` r
# Plot RNA velocity
scVelo.Plot(color = "cluster", basis = "ms_cell_embeddings",
save = "quick_start_scvelo.png", figsize = c(5,4))
```
For detailed usage of the functions and more advanced analysis, please refer to the vignettes and tutorials.
