A spatial transcriptomics atlas of live donors reveals unique zonation patterns in the healthy human liver (Q6725326)

We performed 10x Visium spatial transcriptomics on 16 adult human liver samples: eight from young, healthy, living donors (marked as 'M') and eight from patients with liver pathology, where we sampled adjacent normal tissue (marked as 'P') to construct a spatial expression atlas of the adult human liver.To achieve higher spatial resolution, we also applied high-definition Visium HD measurements to two liver sections from young, healthy, living donors (M2 and M6). To compare human liver zonation profiles with those of other mammals, we assembled a spatial transcriptomics dataset from three additional mammalian species with body sizes and metabolic rates more comparable to human: wild boar (n=2. marked as 'non+human_P'), cow (n=2. marked as 'non+human_C'), and domesticated pig (n=3. marked as 'non+human_PD'). For human Visium samples (n=16. M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, M8, P2, P3, P6, P7, P14, P17, P18 and P21) and non-human Visium samples (n=7. C1, C2, P1, P2, PD1, PD2 and PD3) the following files were uploaded: Metadata: Human samples metadata file. Non-human metadata file.
