Detection of Somatic Point Mutations Directly from Spatial Transcriptomics Enables in vivo Spatiotemporal Lineage Tracing
2026-02-06
Abstract excerpt
Spatial transcriptomics reveals tissue organization but lacks in vivo lineage-tracing methods applicable to humans. We introduce SpaceTracer, a computational framework that accurately detects somatic single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) directly from spatial transcriptomics data. By leveraging naturally occurring somatic SNVs, SpaceTracer reconstructs cellular phylogenies within native tissue architecture, enabling t...
