TIGER

General information

URL: http://tiger.canceromics.org
Full name: A Web Portal of Tumor Immunotherapy Gene Expression Resource
Description: Here, we present TIGER, a tumor immunotherapy gene expression resource, which contains bulk transcriptome data of 1508 tumor samples with clinical immunotherapy outcomes and 11,057 tumor/normal samples without clinical immunotherapy outcomes, as well as single-cell transcriptome data of 2,116,945 immune cells from 655 samples. TIGER provides many useful modules for analyzing collected and user-provided data. Using the resource in TIGER, we identified a tumor-enriched subset of CD4+ T cells. Patients with melanoma with a higher signature score of this subset have a significantly better response and survival under immunotherapy.

Immunotherapy is a promising cancer treatment method; however, only a few patients benefit from it. The development of new immunotherapy strategies and effective biomarkers of response and resistance are urgently needed. Recently, high-throughput bulk and single-cell gene expression profiling technologies have generated valuable resources. However, these resources are not well organized and systematic analysis is difficult. Here, we present TIGER, a tumor immunotherapy gene expression resource, which contains bulk transcriptome data of 1508 tumor samples with clinical immunotherapy outcomes and 11,057 tumor/normal samples without clinical immunotherapy outcomes, as well as single-cell transcriptome data of 2,116,945 immune cells from 655 samples. TIGER provides many useful modules for analyzing collected and user-provided data. Using this resource in TIGER, we identified a tumor-enriched subset of CD4 T cells. Patients with melanoma with a higher signature score of this subset have a significantly better response and survival under immunotherapy. We believe that TIGER will be helpful in understanding anti-tumor immunity mechanisms and discovering effective biomarkers. TIGER is freely accessible at http://tiger.canceromics.org/.
