Spatial Multi-omics Technical Service


Technical background

 

In 2022, spatial multi-omics technology was rated as one of the seven "subversive" technologies by Nature. It combines the detection results of genome, transcriptome, proteome and metabolome with the in situ information of tissues to reshape the positioning and distribution of relevant group information in the spatial three-dimensional structure. With the approval of several immunotherapy drugs, tumor immunotherapy is becoming more and more mature, and people pay more and more attention to the concept of tissue microenvironment and its role in tumor immunotherapy. Tumor cells can affect the surrounding microenvironment by releasing extracellular signals, promote tumor angiogenesis and inhibit the surrounding immune cells, and the immune cells and factors in the tumor microenvironment can affect the growth of tumor cells (see the figure below).

Service Content

 

A wide range of spatial multi-omics technologies are available, from high-throughput spatial transcriptomics and proteomics to low-throughput RNA in situ detection techniques and multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemistry (IHC) methods. Each of these methodologies plays a unique role in its respective application area. PhenoVision Bio Co., Itd possesses an advanced spatial multi-omics platform and downstream data analysis platform. Backed by a team of experienced professionals with years of expertise in this field, PhenoVision integrates R&D, laboratory services, and clinical application development. It offers a one-stop spatial biology solution for multi-omics (DNA, RNA, and protein) analysis.

Case Show

 

Spatial phenotyping analysis can categorize marker panels into several major types: 1.Identifying the distribution of T cells and their subtypes (e.g., cytotoxic T cells, helper T cells) within tumors. 2.Distinguishing the distribution of M1 and M2 macrophages within tumors. 3.Focusing on different B cell subtypes (e.g., B cell subtypes represented by CD20, CD21) and the distribution of tertiary lymphoid structures within tumors. 4.Paying attention to a broader range of immune cell types, such as incorporating NK cells and dendritic cells into the panel to observe the distribution of different immune cells within tumors. 5.Focusing on combining tumor markers and immune checkpoints to observe the distribution of several major cell types (tumor cells, B cells, T cells, macrophages, etc.) within tumors.
