Build summarized interaction graph weighted by predicted ligand activities

Description

Build summarized interaction graph weighted by predicted ligand activities

Usage

BuildWeightedInteraction(
  object,
  nichenet_results,
  assay = "SCT",
  slot = "data",
  pearson.cutoff = 0.075,
  scale.factors = c(1.5, 3),
  species = "human",
  database = "OmniPath",
  ligands = NULL,
  recepts = NULL,
  correct.depth = T,
  graph_name = "weighted_interaction"
)

Arguments

object

A Seurat object

nichenet_results

List or matrix. Predicted ligand activities using Scriabin's implementation of NicheNet in RankActiveLigands

assay

Assay in Seurat object from which to pull expression values

slot

Slot within assay from which to pull expression values

pearson.cutoff

numeric. Threshold for determining which ligand activities are "active". Ligands below this threshold will be considered inactive and not used for weighting. Default: 0.075

scale.factors

numeric. Determines the magnitude of ligand and receptor expression values weighting by their predicted activities. Given scale factors of c(x,y), ligand-receptor pairs where the ligand's pearson = pearson.cutoff will be weighted by a factor of x, and the ligand with the highest pearson will be weighted by a factor of y. Default: c(1.5,3).

species

Name of species for which to pull ligand-receptor interactions. One of "human", "mouse", or "rat"

database

Name of ligand-receptor database to use. Default: "OmniPath" When species is "human", one of: OmniPath, CellChatDB, CellPhoneDB, Ramilowski2015, Baccin2019, LRdb, Kirouac2010, ICELLNET, iTALK, EMBRACE, HPMR, Guide2Pharma, connectomeDB2020, talklr, CellTalkDB When species is "mouse" or "rat", only "OmniPath" is supported. To pass a custom ligand-receptor database to this function, set database = "custom"

ligands

Character vector of custom ligands to use for interaction graph generation. Ignored unless database = "custom" When ligands is supplied, recepts must also be supplied and equidimensional.

recepts

Character vector of custom receptors to use for interaction graph generation. Ignored unless database = "custom" When recepts is supplied, ligands must also be supplied and equidimensional.

correct.depth

Correct summarized interaction graph for sequencing depth by linear regression. The sequencing depth of a cell-cell pair is the sum of UMI counts for each cell

graph_name

Name of summarized interaction graph to place into output. Default "weighted_interaction"

ranked_genes

Cell-resolved gene signatures, used only when specific = T

Value

Returns a Seurat object with a weighted summarized interaction graph in the Graphs slot
