マウントサイナイ健康システムの研究者らは、組織の空間データ解析を効率化するオープンソースソフトウェア「Giotto Suite」を開発した。従来の空間生物学研究では、異なるデータセットの統合や多層的解析が困難だったが、Giotto Suiteは数百万単位の細胞データを扱い、遺伝子発現や組織構造を多角的に可視化・解析できる。これにより、がんの進行や免疫応答など複雑な生物学的過程の理解が促進され、精密医療や新薬開発に役立つと期待される。

Abstract

Emerging spatial multiomics technologies provide an increasingly large amount of information content at multiple scales. However, it remains challenging to efficiently represent and harmonize diverse spatial datasets. Here we present Giotto Suite, a suite of modular packages that provides scalable and extensible end-to-end solutions for multiscale and multiomic data analysis, integration and visualization. At its core, Giotto Suite is centered around an innovative data framework, allowing the representation and integration of spatial omics data in a technology-agnostic manner. Giotto Suite integrates molecular, morphology, spatial and annotated feature information to create a responsive and flexible workflow, as demonstrated by applications to several state-of-the-art spatial technologies. Furthermore, Giotto Suite builds upon interoperable interfaces and data structures that bridge the established fields of genomics and spatial data science in R, thereby enabling independent developers to create custom-engineered pipelines. As such, Giotto Suite creates an immersive and multiscale ecosystem for spatial multiomic data analysis.
