Abstract
Spatial mapping of genomic programs in tissue cells is an important step in the understanding of organ function and disease. Here, the authors provide a spatially resolved epigenomic and transcriptomic map of human liver and show porto-central gradients in metabolic and morphogen networks and transcription factor binding sites as a basis to better understand liver regeneration and function.
