Fig. 1. Intratumoral cell types in spinal ependymomas revealed by scRNA-seq.

Fig. 1

a Scheme of the overall study design. scRNA-seq (10× Genomics) was applied to cells isolated from three subtypes of spinal ependymomas. b Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining of tumors from different cancer subtypes. The scale bar represents 30 μm. Images shown are representatives of more than three samples from three independent experiments. c Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) plot showing the patient distribution of malignant cells, without donor effect correction. d UMAP plot of stromal and immune cell types from all patients (SE1-3, AEP1-3, EPN1-9), donor effect corrected by BBKNN. e Heatmap showing the expression of canonical gene markers of stromal and immune cell types. f Inference of copy-number variations (CNVs) from scRNA-seq. Each row corresponds to a cell. The top panel represents nonmalignant cells, and the bottom panel represents malignant cells, ordered by the patient.
