| Summary |
Immunotherapy for liver cancer is used to rejuvenate tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes by modulating the immune microenvironment. Thus, early protective functions of T cell subtypes with tissue-specific residency have been studied in the tumor microenvironment (TME). We identified tumor-associated tissue-resident memory T (TA-TRM) cells in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and characterized their molecular signatures. We obtained single-cell RNA and single-cell TCR sequencing data from five patients with HCC. The heterogeneous characteristics of TRM cell subsets within the TME were then investigated and validated. We characterized two TRM clusters (CD69+ and CD103+) that expressed unique signature genes and validated their similar molecular patterns in an independent dataset. Risk scores based on core gene expression in TA-TRM cells were associated with survival in both datasets. Trajectory analysis revealed that the two lineages followed different trajectory paths with distinct marker gene expression across pseudo-time. CD103+ TA-TRM cells showed diverse clonotypes and shared clonotypes with other cell groups. Lower clonal diversity and distinct signaling interactions were observed in the recurrent than in the non-recurrent samples. The CXCL13-CXCR3 interaction between CD103+ TA-TRM and regulatory T cells was observed only in the recurrent samples. We identified two subtypes of TA-TRM cells in HCC and demonstrated their unique molecular signatures, relevance to survival, and distinct signaling networks according to recurrence. The study findings provide a better understanding of the molecular characteristics of TA-TRM cells in HCC and potential immunotherapeutic strategies.

| Overall design |
We generated scRNA-seq of CD45+ immune cells from tumors and adjacent livers for HCC by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).
