Abstract
Our ability to understand the cellular complexity of tissues has been revolutionized in recent years with significant advances in proteogenomic technologies including those enabling spatial analyses. This has led to numerous consortium efforts, such as the human cell atlas initiative which aims to profile all cells in the human body in healthy and diseased contexts. The availability of such information will subsequently lead to the identification of novel biomarkers of disease and of course therapeutic avenues. However, before such an atlas of any given healthy or diseased tissue can be generated, several factors should be considered including which specific techniques are optimal for the biological question at hand. In this review, we aim to highlight some of the considerations we believe to be important in the experimental design and analysis process, with the goal of helping to navigate the rapidly changing landscape of technologies available.
期刊介绍:
Clinical & Experimental Immunology (established in 1966) is an authoritative international journal publishing high-quality research studies in translational and clinical immunology that have the potential to transform our understanding of the immunopathology of human disease and/or change clinical practice.
The journal is focused on translational and clinical immunology and is among the foremost journals in this field, attracting high-quality papers from across the world. Translation is viewed as a process of applying ideas, insights and discoveries generated through scientific studies to the treatment, prevention or diagnosis of human disease. Clinical immunology has evolved as a field to encompass the application of state-of-the-art technologies such as next-generation sequencing, metagenomics and high-dimensional phenotyping to understand mechanisms that govern the outcomes of clinical trials.
