This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.6.2.9000). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.
Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.
Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.
The command set.seed(1) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.
Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

- diff-count-analysis-clusters-pulseseq
- diff-count-analysis-topics-droplet
- diff-count-analysis-topics-pulseseq
To ensure reproducibility of the results, delete the cache directory plots_tracheal_epithelium_cache and re-run the analysis. To have workflowr automatically delete the cache directory prior to building the file, set delete_cache = TRUE when running wflow_build() or wflow_publish().
Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.
Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.
The results in this page were generated with repository version 9e59003. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.
Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:

Next, load the larger “pulse-seq” data set, the \(k = 11\) Poisson NMF model fit for these data, and the 7 clusters identified in the clustering analysis.

Differential expression analysis
Perform differential expression analysis using the topic model fitted to the droplet data.
timing <- system.time(
diff_count_droplet <- diff_count_analysis(fit_droplet,counts_droplet))
cat(sprintf("Computation took %0.2f seconds.\n",timing["elapsed"]))
# Fitting 18388 x 7 = 128716 univariate Poisson models.
# Computing log-fold change statistics.
# Computation took 21.57 seconds.
Warning: The above code chunk cached its results, but it won’t be re-run if previous chunks it depends on are updated. If you need to use caching, it is highly recommended to also set knitr::opts_chunk$set(autodep = TRUE) at the top of the file (in a chunk that is not cached). Alternatively, you can customize the option dependson for each individual chunk that is cached. Using either autodep or dependson will remove this warning. See the knitr cache options for more details.

Ciliated cells
We begin with the cluster that captures ciliated cells in the droplet data. This cluster is one of the most distinctive in both the droplet and pulse-seq data sets. Ciliated cells are abundant, although not nearly as much as basal and club cells. While gene expression in ciliated cells is largely captured by a single topic, this topic is not attributed only to ciliated cells, so we interpret the cluster only.
cilitated_genes <- c("Ccdc113","Ccdc153","Cdhr3","Foxj1","Lztfl1","Mlf1")
p1 <- volcano_plot_with_highlighted_genes(diff_count_clusters_droplet,"Cil",
cilitated_genes,
label_above_quantile = 0.998)
print(p1)
In this volcano plot, marker genes and transcription factors identified in Montoro et al (2018) are highlighted in black, and other top differentially expressed genes are shown with gray labels.
We obtain similar top differentially expressed genes in the pulse-seq data:
p2 <- volcano_plot_with_highlighted_genes(diff_count_clusters_pulseseq,"Cil",
cilitated_genes,
label_above_quantile = 0.998)
print(p2)
Ionocytes
In the pulse-seq data, we identify a distinctive cluster for the newly discovered—and very rare—ionocyte cell type. Gene expression in these cells is not fully captured by any single topic, yet the mixture of topics forms a distinctive cluster in the embedding formed by the pulse-seq topic proportions.
ionocyte_genes <- c("Ascl3","Asgr1","Atp6v0d2","Atp6v1c2","Cftr","Foxi1",
"Moxd1","P2ry14","Stap1")
p3 <- volcano_plot_with_highlighted_genes(diff_count_clusters_pulseseq,"I",
ionocyte_genes,
label_above_quantile = 0.998)
print(p3)
We do not identify a cluster for ionocytes in the droplet data. This is not surprising in light of the fact that only a very small number of cells in the droplet data set appear to be ionocytes, at least judging by expression of the Foxi1 ionocyte marker gene:
p4 <- pca_plot_with_counts(fit_droplet,counts_droplet[,"Foxi1"],1:2)
print(p4)
Goblet cells
Notes: We identify a cluster of Goblet cells in the droplet data, but not in the pulse-seq data (this is consistent with Montoro et al, 2018).
goblet_genes <- "Gp2"
p5 <- volcano_plot_with_highlighted_genes(diff_count_clusters_droplet,"G",
goblet_genes,
label_above_quantile = 0.998)
print(p5)
Topic \(k = 1\) is unique to this cluster suggesting that the this topic characterizes the goblet cell type.
goblet_genes <- "Gp2"
p6 <- volcano_plot_with_highlighted_genes(diff_count_droplet,"k1",
goblet_genes,
label_above_quantile = 0.998)
print(p6)
Indeed, there is a very close correspondence between the topic and cluster, with several genes (e.g. Gp2) showing somewhat stronger enrichment in the topic.
p7 <- zscores_scatterplot(diff_count_clusters_droplet$Z[,"G"],
diff_count_droplet$Z[,1],
diff_count_droplet$colmeans,
colnames(counts_droplet),
label_above_score = 150,
zmax = 800) +
labs(x = "cluster G",y = "topic 1",title = "z-scores")
print(p7)
