TumorDecon
TumorDecon is an open source Python package, which includes four deconvolution methods (DeconRNAseq [Gong2013], CIBERSORT [Newman2015], ssGSEA [Şenbabaoğlu2016], Singscore [Foroutan2018]) and several cell signature matrixes, including LM22.
The input of this software is the gene expression profile of the tumor, and the output is the relative number of each cell type.
Users have an option to choose any of the implemented deconvolution methods and included signature matrixes or import their own signature matrix to get the results.
Supported by NCI ITCR program and UMass Amherst.
