Subcellularly Resolved Single-Cell Embedding Learning with Transcriptomic data, Protein Structure and Localization Information

The paper introduces a multimodal framework that learns subcellularly resolved cell embeddings by integrating RNA expression profiles, protein sequence representations, and protein structural information using a cross‑attention architecture. This approach models interactions within distinct subcellular compartments, producing fine‑grained embeddings that capture both molecular expression patterns and functional protein properties. It is presented as the first method to jointly incorporate transcriptomic data, sequence, and structural knowledge for subcellularly resolved cell representation.

Subcellularly Resolved Single-Cell Embedding Learning with Transcriptomic data, Protein Structure and Localization Information

The paper introduces a multimodal framework that learns subcellularly resolved cell embeddings by integrating RNA expression profiles, protein sequence representations, and protein structural information. It uses a cross‑attention architecture to model interactions across distinct subcellular compartments, producing embeddings that capture both molecular expression patterns and functional protein properties. This approach is presented as the first to jointly incorporate transcriptomic data, protein sequences, and structural knowledge within a unified cross‑modal learning paradigm.

Biology-Guided Context-Aware Residual Propagation for Spatial Gene Expression Prediction from Histology

The paper introduces BCARP, a Biology‑Guided Context‑Aware Residual Propagation framework that predicts spatial gene expression from H&E‑stained histology images. Rather than directly decoding expression from visual features, BCARP treats histology embeddings as morphological priors and iteratively refines spot representations in a transcriptomics‑oriented latent space, integrating nuclei‑guided local context and prototype‑guided global propagation. Evaluations on three spatial transcriptomics datasets and ten HEST‑1k cohorts show that BCARP outperforms existing baselines in mean correlation‑based metrics, demonstrating the effectiveness of biology‑guided local‑global residual propagation for histology‑to‑transcriptomics prediction.

Leveraging Cell-level Spatial Transcriptomics as Weak Supervision for Nuclei Classification

The paper proposes a scalable framework that uses cell-level spatial transcriptomics (ST) as weak supervision for nuclei classification in histopathology images. By converting gene expression profiles into cell-type labels and leveraging nucleus masks from ST data, the method automatically generates image-label pairs without manual annotation. Evaluations on unseen tissues show that this approach achieves segmentation and classification performance comparable to conventional supervised methods while requiring fewer manually annotated datasets.
