Background: TIGIT is a promising emerging immunotherapeutic target. However, the specific sources of TIGIT expression within the tumor microenvironment are largely unknown. Here, we present an AI-powered spatial tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) analyzer, Lunit SCOPE IO, to integrate image analysis from whole slide images with single-cell molecular profiling. Methods: We used The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) RNA expression data across 23 cancer types (n=6,930). Lunit SCOPE IO was developed, trained, and validated based on >17k H&E whole-slide images, to segment cancer area (CA) and cancer-associated stroma (CS) and to detect tumor cells and TILs. The intra-tumoral TIL, stromal TIL, and tumor cell purity (TCP) in the CA+CS area were calculated. The public spatial transcriptomics (ST) dataset for breast cancer was downloaded from the 10X Visium web page. Lunit SCOPE IO was applied to the associated H&E WSIs to match distinct TIGIT expression to single cells identified in the WSIs. Results: TIGIT was highly expressed in TGCT (3.45±0.11; median±SEM), LUAD (3.07±0.05), and HNSC (2.89±0.06), and was highly enriched in samples with microsatellite instability-high or tumor mutational burden-high (≥ 10/Mb) compared to those without them (fold change = 1.30, p < 0.001). At a macroscopic, bulk-level in the TCGA dataset, TIGIT expression was positively correlated with intra-tumoral TIL density (R=0.37, p<0.001) and stromal TIL density (R=0.42, p<0.001), but it was negatively correlated with TCP (R=-0.27, p<0.001). Lunit SCOPE IO analyzed the images from ST analysis and calculated intra-tumoral TIL, stromal TIL, and TCP of each region of interest, containing 2 (IQR 0-7) cells. Interestingly, at a microscopic, cell-level, TIGIT expression was still higher in areas of enriched stromal TIL (P < 0.001) and lower in tumor cell-dense areas, but it was not significantly correlated with enriched intra-tumoral TIL areas, meaning that TIGIT expression is likely derived from the excluded TILs in the CS area. Conclusions: Interactive analysis of spatial transcriptomics with AI-powered pathology image analysis revealed that TIGIT expression in the tumor microenvironment is exclusive to confined areas with stromal TIL enrichment, reflecting the exclusion of TIL from the tumor nest.
