The goal of quantiseqr
is to streamline the quantification of tumor immune contexture from RNA-seq data using quanTIseq.
quanTIseq is deconvolution method based on an RNA-seq-derived signature matrix (i.e., TIL10) designed and validated to quantify 10 different immune cell types.
Please see (Finotello F et al., Genome Medicine 2019) for additional details on quanTIseq.
