Studies on cell signaling pay more attention to spatial dynamics and how such diverse organization can relate to high order of cellular capabilities.To overview the specificity of cell signaling,we integrated human receptome data with proteome spatial expression profiles to systematically investigate the specificity of receptors and receptor-triggered transduction networks across 62 normal cell types and 14 cancer types.Six percent receptors showed cell-type-specific expression,and 4％ signaling networks presented enriched cell-specific proteins induced by the receptors.We introduced a concept of "response context" to annotate the cell-type dependent signaling networks.We found that most cells respond similarly to the same stimulus,as the "response contexts" presented high functional similarity.Despite this,the subtle spatial diversity can be obsewed from the difference in network architectures.The architecture of the signaling networks in nerve cells displayed less completeness than that in glandular cells,which indicated cellular-context dependent signaling pattes are elaborately spatially organized.Likewise,in cancer cells most signaling networks were generally dysfunctional and less complete than that in normal cells.However,glioma emerged hyper-activated transduction mechanism in malignant state.Receptor ATP6AP2 and TNFRSF21 induced rennin-angiotensin and apoptosis signaling were found likely to explain the glioma-specific mechanism.This work represents an effort to decipher context-specific signaling network from spatial dimension.Our results indicated that although a majority of cells engage general signaling response with subtle differences,the spatial dynamics of cell signaling can not only deepen our insights into different signaling mechanisms,but also help understand cell signaling in disease.
