The cell ecology and spatial niche implicated in the dynamic and sequential process of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) from adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) to minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and subsequent invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) have not yet been elucidated. Here, we performed an integrative analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) to characterize the cell atlas of the invasion trajectory of LUAD. We found that the UBE2C + cancer cell subpopulation constantly increased during the invasive process of LUAD with remarkable elevation in IAC, and its spatial distribution was in the peripheral cancer region of the IAC, representing a more malignant phenotype. Furthermore, analysis of the TME cell type subpopulation showed a constant decrease in mast cells, monocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells, which were implicated in the whole process of invasive LUAD, accompanied by an increase in NK cells and MALT B cells from AIS to MIA and an increase in Tregs and secretory B cells from MIA to IAC. Notably, for AIS, cancer cells, NK cells, and mast cells were colocalized in the cancer region; however, for IAC, Tregs colocalized with cancer cells. Finally, communication and interaction between cancer cells and TME cell-induced constitutive activation of TGF-β signaling were involved in the invasion of IAC. Therefore, our results reveal the specific cellular information and spatial architecture of cancer cells and TME subpopulations, as well as the cellular interaction between them, which will facilitate the identification and development of precision medicine in the invasive process of LUAD from AIS to IAC. A map showing how lung cancer progresses from static to invasive carcinomas could inform new therapeutic approaches. The World Health Organisation defines three stages of lung adenocarcinoma: first, in situ lesions, then minimally invasive, then fully invasive. Details about the cell populations involved and their locations during cancer development have been limited. Jianfei Zhu at Air Force Medical University in Xi’an, China, and co-workers have combined the strengths of single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to produce a map showing where and when different cell types become involved in lung cancer progression. They showed that UBE2C cells, well-known tumor-forming cells, are involved at early stages, and could be key clinical indicators of invasion. Later, regulatory T-cells, which can suppress the body’s immune responses to tumors, are recruited into cancer regions while other cell types are reduced.
