Notes on Immunology-related tools and databases

Mostly cancer-related.

  • TIMER - immune cell-oriented exploration of TCGA cancers. prehensive resource for systematical analysis of immune infiltrates across diverse cancer types. Exploring the abundances of six immune infiltrates (B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, Neutrphils, Macrophages and Dendritic cells) with gene expression, survival, mutations, copy number variants and more. Six analysis modules: Gene correlation with immune cell proportions, immune proportions and survival, and mutations, and somatic copy number alterations, simple boxplot expression of a gene across all cancer/normal samples, correlation between two genes adjusted for tumor purity or age, deconvolution of user-provided gene expression, estimation of immune proportions in all TCGA samples. https://cistrome.shinyapps.io/timer/.
