Spatial multiomics in biomedical research: advances beyond transcriptomics

Abstract

Coordinated changes in gene expression, epigenetic regulation, protein and metabolic activities together drive disease progression and determine clinical outcomes. While spatially resolved transcriptomics has been widely adopted across biomedical fields, it offers an incomplete picture limited to transcriptomic levels. Here, we survey the latest developments in spatial multiomics technologies, with particular emphasis on platforms that extend beyond conventional transcriptomics and profile genomics, epigenomics, proteomics, or metabolomics within intact tissues. These approaches are rapidly becoming commercialized, and here we highlight major technical breakthroughs, enhanced sample compatibility, emerging applications, and computational tools for data analysis. This Review aims to equip researchers with a clear understanding of the current technological landscape and to accelerate the adoption of spatial multiomics methods in biomedical research.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.

Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
