EPIC.package | R Documentation |
EPIC package provides the function and cell reference profiles to estimate the proportion of immune, stromal, endothelial and cancer or other cells from bulk gene expression data.
See the package vignette (command in the R console: vignette("EPIC") ) and function definitions below.
EPIC
is the main function to call to estimate the
various cells proportions from a bulk sample.
BRef
: reference profiles from circulating immune cells.
TRef
: reference profiles from tumor infiltrating non-malignant
cells obtained from single cell data of melanoma patients.
melanoma_data
: example dataset containing data from lymph nodes
from patients with metastatic melanoma.
mRNA_cell_default
: values of mRNA per cell for the main cell
types.
