Fig. 5. Spatial mapping of the granuloma transcriptome.

Fig. 5

af Mice were infected with 104 CFU WT C. violaceum and one liver was harvested per indicated timepoint for spatial transcriptomic analysis. a H&E and spatial transcriptomic orientation of indicated clusters from same granuloma at 5 dpi. Spatial transcriptomics was only completed on one experiment. b UMAP plot for cluster expression orientation for all clusters from all timepoints of infection. c UMAP plot of cluster expression in designated locations within granuloma architecture. Necrotic core (NC), necrotic core center (NC-C), necrotic core periphery (NC-P), coagulative necrotic zone (CN), CN-macrophage zone (CN-M), macrophage zone (M), outside granuloma (OG), hepatocyte (HEP), and endothelial cell (EC). d Module scores of various immune cells and fibroblast expression markers from granulomas throughout infection time course. e Indicated cell type expression dot plot in each cluster within the granuloma architecture; combined from all timepoints of infection. f Spatial transcriptomic expression of indicated genes representing immune and non-immune cells within 5 dpi granuloma. S100a9 (neutrophils), Cd68 (macrophages), Ccr2 (monocytes), Trac (T cells), Col1a1 (fibroblasts), and Alb (hepatocytes and endothelial cells).
