Analyze the dynamics of PPARG-low Tregs precursor populations with Cellrank
We analyze the PPARG-low Tregs precursor population from Chaoran Li and colleagues. The paper reports that lowly-expressed PPARgamma Tregs is indeed transcriptionally heterogeneous. And RNA velocity reveals that its subpopulations exhibit clear transition dynamics to so-called precusor states.

Infer the cell-cell communication with CellphoneDB
We use CellphoneDB v3 to screen for the potential ligand-receptor interactions between Mesenchymal cells (MC), and Hepatic cell (HE) in a late-developed human liver bud. One of the interaction that we found using CellPhoneDB, VEFGA signalling (VEFGA-KDR) was confirmed experimentally in the publication to be a driver of human liver bud development.

RNA velocity analysis with scVelo
We use scVelo to perform RNA-velocity analysis for a primary tumor sample of patient T71 from the dataset GSE137804: Transcriptomic Characterization of neuroblastoma by Single Cell RNA Sequencing (Donr R. 2020). We identifying two sub-populations of tumor cells in this sample, and use scVelo to predict the progression from one tumor sub-population to another.
