Current methods operate at bulk resolution and provide a single average estimate for the whole sample. Spatial transcriptomics technologies have emerged and shown their value by placing gene expression into a tissue context, resulting in transcriptional information from all tissue regions. Thus, the ability to estimate RNA quality in situ has become of utmost importance to overcome the limitation with a bulk rRNA measurement. Here we show a new tool, the spatial RNA integrity number (sRIN) assay, to assess the rRNA completeness in a tissue wide manner at cellular resolution. We demonstrate the use of sRIN to identify spatial variation in tissue quality prior to more comprehensive spatial transcriptomics workflows.", "doi": "10.1038/s42003-020-01573-1", "pmid": "33420318", "labels": [], "xrefs": [{"db": "pmc", "key": "PMC7794352"}, {"db": "pii", "key": "10.1038/s42003-020-01573-1"}], "notes": [], "created": "2026-08-20T09:24:57.181Z", "modified": "2026-08-20T09:24:57.385Z"}, {"entity": "publication", "iuid": "d4b9f026271c49a2aed2ad3629fca535", "links": {"self": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/publication/d4b9f026271c49a2aed2ad3629fca535.json"}, "display": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/publication/d4b9f026271c49a2aed2ad3629fca535"}}, "title": "Clonally distinct differentiation trajectories shape CD8 + memory T cell heterogeneity after acute viral infections in humans", "authors": [{"family": "Mold", "given": "Jeff E", "initials": "JE", "orcid": "0000-0003-2195-2978", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/3190bb256fcb4a9eb4f4ef06bb99eb5c.json"}}, {"family": "Modolo", "given": "Laurent", "initials": "L", "orcid": "0000-0002-0774-7719", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/b8d0ac36844a4862acf2181b5986587b.json"}}, {"family": "H\u00e5rd", "given": "Joanna", "initials": "J", "orcid": "0000-0003-4575-5629", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/0dff3451646c4eeda11111efc550a9ec.json"}}, {"family": "Zamboni", "given": "Margherita", "initials": "M", "orcid": "0000-0003-0664-4707", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/7dd167b1cb344898bccd0d60315db61c.json"}}, {"family": "Larsson", "given": "Anton J M", "initials": "AJM", "orcid": "0000-0001-5876-7763", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/5a15fd73b06b44e8bf412c21caf1f054.json"}}, {"family": "Eriksson", "given": "Carl Johan", "initials": "CJ"}, {"family": "St\u00e5hl", "given": "Patrik L", "initials": "PL", "orcid": "0000-0002-2207-7370", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/132000c8241249d9b2c4cfeb4a058862.json"}}, {"family": "Borgstr\u00f6m", "given": "Erik", "initials": "E", "orcid": "0000-0002-2643-1971", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/672929af64b9491fa64f7aedbf10bfb7.json"}}, {"family": "Picelli", "given": "Simone", "initials": "S"}, {"family": "Reinius", "given": "Bj\u00f6rn", "initials": "B", "orcid": "0000-0002-7021-5248", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/a7c1abacc8d446bf8855254246b8d899.json"}}, {"family": "Sandberg", "given": "Rickard", "initials": "R", "orcid": "0000-0001-6473-1740", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/55acae2b727144ddac3ac6bfe51fc74d.json"}}, {"family": "R\u00e9u", "given": "Pedro", "initials": "P"}, {"family": "Talavera-Lopez", "given": "Carlos", "initials": "C", "orcid": "0000-0001-8590-2393", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/0479c30a633244319d5cf6c739f5895c.json"}}, {"family": "Andersson", "given": "Bj\u00f6rn", "initials": "B", "orcid": "0000-0002-4624-0259", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/6ec925db9e4443cab40d10616231f410.json"}}, {"family": "Blom", "given": "Kim", "initials": "K"}, {"family": "Sandberg", "given": "Johan K", "initials": "JK"}, {"family": "Picard", "given": "Franck", "initials": "F"}, {"family": "Micha\u00eblsson", "given": "Jakob", "initials": "J", "orcid": "0000-0001-6948-7281", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/8b1d4eb97634409a99a53c55e2bdcf86.json"}}, {"family": "Fris\u00e9n", "given": "Jonas", "initials": "J", "orcid": "0000-0001-5819-458X", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications-affiliated.scilifelab.se/researcher/6c428941167b42c495b9fcdb6eb85729.json"}}], "type": "posted-content", "published": "2019-11-07", "journal": {"issn-l": null}, "abstract": null, "doi": "10.1101/832899", "pmid": null, "labels": [], "xrefs": [], "notes": [], "created": "2026-08-20T11:15:13.790Z", "modified": "2026-08-20T11:15:14.066Z"}]}
