STexampleData 1.4.5
The STexampleData package contains a collection of spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) datasets, which have been formatted into the SpatialExperiment Bioconductor class, for use in examples, demonstrations, and tutorials. The datasets are from several different SRT platforms and have been sourced from various publicly available sources. Some of the datasets include images and/or ground truth annotation labels.
To install the STexampleData package from Bioconductor:
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("STexampleData")Alternatively, the latest version can also be installed from GitHub:
install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("lmweber/STexampleData", build_vignettes = TRUE)The package contains the following datasets:
Visium_humanDLPFC (10x Genomics Visium): A single sample (sample 151673) of human brain dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in the human brain, measured using the 10x Genomics Visium platform. This is a subset of the full dataset containing 12 samples from 3 neurotypical donors, published by Maynard and Collado-Torres et al. (2021). The full dataset is available from the spatialLIBD Bioconductor package.
Visium_mouseCoronal (10x Genomics Visium): A single coronal section from the mouse brain, spanning one hemisphere. This dataset was previously released by 10x Genomics on their website.
seqFISH_mouseEmbryo (seqFISH): A subset of cells (embryo 1, z-slice 2) from a previously published dataset investigating mouse embryogenesis by Lohoff and Ghazanfar et al. (2020), generated using the seqFISH platform. The full dataset is available online.
ST_mouseOB (Spatial Transcriptomics): A single sample from the mouse brain olfactory bulb (OB), measured with the Spatial Transcriptomics platform (Stahl et al. 2016). This dataset contains annotations for five cell layers from the original authors.
SlideSeqV2_mouseHPC (Slide-seqV2): A single sample of mouse brain from the hippocampus (HPC) and surrounding regions, measured with the Slide-seqV2 platform (Stickels et al. 2020). This dataset contains cell type annotations generated by Cable et al. (2021).
The following examples show how to load the example datasets as SpatialExperiment objects in an R session.
There are two options for loading the datasets: either using named accessor functions or by querying the ExperimentHub database.
