Abstract

Spatial transcriptomic (ST) profiling is the mapping of gene expression within cell populations with preservation of positional context and represents an exciting new approach to develop our understanding of local and regional influences upon skin biology in health and disease. With the ability to probe from a few hundred transcripts to the entire transcriptome, multiple ST approaches are now widely available. In this paper, we review the ST field and discuss its application to dermatology. Its potential to advance our understanding of skin biology in health and disease is highlighted through the illustrative examples of 3 research areas: cutaneous aging, tumorigenesis, and psoriasis.
