Description |
Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) clusters cells using genome-wide gene expression profiles. The relationships between scRNA-seq Clustered-Populations (scCPops) and cell surface molecules defined classic T cell subsets are unclear. Here,we interrogated 6 beads-enriched T cell subsets with 62,235 single cell transcriptomes and re-grouped them into 9 scCPops. Beads-enriched CD4 Naive, CD8 Naive and CD4 memory were mainly clustered into their scCPop counterparts, while the other T cell subsets were clustered into multiple scCPops including unexpected mucosal-associated invariant T cell and natural killer T cell. Most interestingly, we discovered a new T cell type that highly expressed Interferon Signaling Associated Genes (ISAGs), namelyIFNhi T. We further enriched IFNhi T for scRNA-seq analyses. IFNhi T cluster disappeared on tSNE after removing ISAGs, and IFNhi T cluster showed up by tSNE analyses of ISAGs alone, indicating ISAGs are the major contributor of IFNhi T cluster. BST2+ cells and BST2- cells showing different responses indicates high ISAGs may contribute to quick T cell activation. |
