Use customed pathways

Create pathways_custom

Please follow the structure and colnames of pathways or demo_pathways() as follows:

# pathways is a data.frame object with 8 columns
src dest pathway source type src_tf dest_tf species
CDKN1A CDK2 p53 signaling pathway KEGG Process(activation) NO NO Human
CDKN1A CDK4 p53 signaling pathway KEGG Process(activation) NO NO Human
CDK2 TP53 p53 signaling pathway KEGG Process(binding) NO YES Human
Akt1 Atf2 PI3K-Akt signaling pathway KEGG Process(association) NO YES Mouse

Note: dest_tf means dest is a transcriptional factor (TF), e.g., TP53, Atf2

Use pathways_custom

Replace the pathways with pathways_custom in the function of find_lr_path() to infer cell-cell communications

find_lr_path(object, lrpairs, pathways = pathways_custom, max_hop)
