Massively multiplex chemical transcriptomics at single-cell resolution
Open accessAbstract
Single-cell chemical transcriptomics: Single-cell transcriptomic technologies have emerged as powerful tools to explore cellular heterogeneity at the resolution of individual cells. Srivatsan et al. now add another layer of information and complexity by combining single-cell transcriptomics with oligo hashing and small molecule screening in a method called sci-Plex. Because screening many chemical compounds requires the ability to profile many cells, and because screens perturb cells in many different ways, the authors demonstrate the effects of 188 compounds in three cancer lines. The sci-Plex method can capture gene expression profiles from thousands of experimental conditions in a single experiment. Science , this issue p. 45

In the citing paper
“Here, high-throughput perturbation screens—based on RNA-seq,28,83,90 optical pooled screens (OPS),29,39,91 or other technologies—offer a rich resource through which the AIVC can be trained to predict these effects.”

In the citing paper
“The most extensive drug dataset is sci-Plex 3, which includes 188 drugs tested across three cell lines52; 107 of those perturbations had significant effects on cell states according to E-test analysis (Supplementary Table 3).”

In the citing paper
“As HDAC inhibitors act partly through the deprivation of acetyl-CoA, we expect that the relative abundance of acetyl-CoA precursors within a cell would modulate the effect of HDAC inhibitor exposure, and acetyl-CoA precursors can be considered confounders8 (Fig. 3e).”
From Causal identification of single-cell experimental perturbation effects with CINEMA-OT (2023) · cites this paper as [8]
In the citing paper
“This holds for a large set of major mechanisms: we find that epigenetic, tyrosine kinase signaling, and protein formation compounds are clustered together by the model, which suggests the effectiveness of drugs with these mechanisms on these three cancer cell lines which is in line with the findings in the original publication (Srivatsan et al, 2020).”

In the citing paper
“Furthermore, we observed that chemCPA generalized particularly well for compounds that belonged to the histone deacetylation pathway (Fig 4C), which is in line with the original sci‐Plex publication (Srivatsan et al, 2020) and general support within this perturbation dataset.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
