MatriCom

MatriCom is a web application developed by the Naba and Izzi labs to mine scRNA-Seq datasets and infer communications between ECM components and between different cell populations and the ECM. To impute interactions from expression data, MatriCom relies on a unique database, MatriComDB, that includes over 25,000 curated interactions involving matrisome components, with data on 80% of the ~1,000 genes that compose the mammalian matrisome. MatriCom offers the option to query open-access datasets sourced from large sequencing efforts (Tabula Sapiens, The Human Protein Atlas, HuBMAP) or to process user-generated datasets.
