- Changes default export name for differential expression table.
- Updates the certificate on the Windows installer.
Filter and Recluster
Loupe Browser 5.0 has been updated to allow users to filter and recluster single-cell gene expression datasets. With Loupe's new intuitive, high-performance filtering and reclustering workflow, users can filter out low-quality cell barcodes, narrow on cell types of interest for a more focused study, and explore and share the results of their reanalysis, all interactively, without writing a single line of code.
The reclustering workflow allows for inclusion or exclusion of barcodes by:
- Precomputed or custom cluster membership
- UMI count
- Distinct feature count
- Mitochondrial UMI Fraction
- CSV upload list
The reclustering algorithm generates a new Louvain-based clustering and a t-SNE plot over the filtered dataset. Datasets with less than 10,000 cells should be processed in under two minutes, and Loupe supports reclustering operations on datasets as large as 100,000 cells.
For more information and a guide to the workflow, visit the filtering and reclustering page.
Integrated Gene Expression + V(D)J Clonotype Analysis Updates
Loupe Browser 5.0 includes updates to the clonotype table, with new filtering options and improved performance with high cell count .vloupe
files.
Support for Cell Ranger 5.0 VDJ Datasets
Loupe Browser 5.0 now only supports the loading of VDJ clonotypes created with Cell Ranger 5.0 and later. Previous versions of Loupe Browser may be used to look at VDJ data generated by Cell Ranger 4.0 and earlier.
New Clonotype Table Filtering Options
Identify potential invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells and mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells with a new clonotype table filter. The iNKT/MAIT evidence filter can be used to view clonotypes that contain any cells with supporting evidence in any of the TRA genes, TRA junctions, TRB genes, or TRB junctions of being an iNKT or MAIT cell. This filter is only visible for T cell datasets.
There are other powerful filtering options added in this release:
- The clonotype table can now be filtered by sample for
.vloupe
files generated byaggr
. - Clonotypes in B cell datasets can be filtered by light or heavy chain isotype.
Concurrent Installation with Previous Releases
Loupe Browser 5.0 can be installed concurrently with a currently installed version of Loupe Browser 4.0 or lower. This is required to be able to support visualization of VDJ data created by Cell Ranger 4.0 or earlier.
Differential Expression
Differential expression is now more intuitively tied to the active category. If a differential expression calculation has not been run for the currently selected category, the differential expression table and heatmap will appear blank and prompt you to run the calcuation, instead of showing the most recently calculated differential expression.
Loupe Browser 4.2 is primarily a release in support of the Single Cell Multiome ATAC + Gene Expression assay, as well as the Cell Ranger ARC 1.0 pipeline.
For more information about Multiome updates, click here, or start the Loupe multiome tutorial.
Split View
The Split View menu has been streamlined, with the ability to quickly select any clustering to split by, and easy toggling of cluster labels.
For single-cell applications, Loupe Browser 4.1 offers new ways of concurrently looking at multiple data views, as well as violin plots, log-normalized expression profiles, and general user interface improvements. It is compatible with .cloupe
files generated by all versions of Cell Ranger after v1.3.
For more information about Spatial Gene Expression updates, click here.
Linked Windows
Loupe Browser 4.1 introduces the concept of linked windows, windows that provide concurrent views of the same dataset.
For example, with datasets generated with Cell Ranger 3.0 and Space Ranger, it is possible to view t-SNE, UMAP, spatial, custom projections, and feature barcode-derived projections concurrently. Operations in one window, such as switching categories or displaying the expression of a particular gene, propagate to the other windows. Pan and zoom remain independent between windows.
A linked window can be opened by clicking on the window icon on the left side of the view selector. This brings up a list of available projections. Selecting a projection launchs a window in mini-mode, with a subset of interface options available. A mini-mode window can be expanded by clicking on the expand icon at upper-left, which replaces the 10x icon. Multiple full windows for the same dataset make concurrent display of a variety of information much easier.
Split View
In t-SNE and UMAP views, the Split View selector has moved from the toolbar to the upper left of the window. This allows more rapid organization of these projections by cluster.
Selector Tool
The rectangular and polygonal selection tools at the top of the window have been combined into a single button, which is toggleable. A draw selection tool has been added to the right of the selection buttons, which allows for more precise selection of cells or spots, particularly in spatial views.
Log Normalization
It is now possible in Loupe Browser 4.1 to view feature expression normalized by UMI count (for single-cell and spatial datasets) or cut site count (for ATAC datasets). This is activated by selecting LogNorm as the scale in Feature Expression view, instead of Log2 (the default).
The log-normalization method is the same as methods used in Seurat and scanpy
, with quantitative expression computed as follows:
LogNorm(feature, barcode) = ln(10000 (feature count/barcode count) + 1)*
where the barcode count is the total number of UMIs or cut sites associated with the barcode. The relative expression ratio is multiplied by 10000 in order to shift the relative expression distribution above the constant introduced by the log1p
operation.
Violin Plots
Log-normalization is important when viewing comparative expression across clusters, which is now viewable via Violin Plots. Violin plots can be opened by pressing the violin plot icon in the Data Panel selector.
Violin plots show expression distributions of the currently active feature (or list of features), for the active category. Changes to either the active feature list or selected category are reflected in the Violin Plot. Hovering over each violin graph shows aggregate statistics of feature expression for that graph's cluster.
Violin plots are exportable to SVG or PNG formats. To save a Violin Plot, click on the Export icon and select Export Plot as PNG or Export Plot as SVG.
Loupe Browser 4.0 has been updated to allow users to easily analyze data generated with the Visium Spatial Gene Expression Solution, while still allowing users to easily explore single-cell gene expression, immunology, and ATAC data. It is compatible with all versions of Cell Ranger after v1.3, though the focus of the release is on support for spatial gene expression files generated by Space Ranger 1.0.
For more information about Spatial Gene Expression updates, click here.
Added Expression Color Palettes
Enjoy a variety of new color palettes for feature expression, including inverted color scales, Turbo, Viridis and Plasma. The heatmap color scheme should also make it easier to see differences in differential gene patterns between clusters.

. Please refer to the filtering section in the tutorial for further guidance on how to use this feature.
Projection Import
Import data from your favorite projection methods using a simple CSV format. For more details on the file format, please check the projections section of the interoperability documentation
Multi-Windows
You can now have multiple windows open simultaneously. This will allow you to compare aspects of the same dataset side by side or keep concurrent analyses open at one time. To create new windows, you can click on File > New Window within Loupe Cell Browser or double click on a cloupe file.
Feature Expression Coloring
We've provided a variety of alternate colormaps from which to choose.You can also manually adjust the endpoints of the colorscale. View the alternate colorscales and manual ranges documentation for more details.
Projection Settings
Exports of the barcode plot will now include the relevant legend (categories or gene/feature expression). Barcode plot point size will now scale with zoom level. There is also an option to manually increase or decrease the marker size. To find out more about changing marker size, read the modifying marker size documentation.

Loupe Cell Browser 3.0 has been updated to allow users to easily analyze data generated with the upcoming Feature Barcoding technology for Gene Expression and Immune Profiling applications, as well as from the new Chromium™ Single Cell ATAC solution.
To find out how to use Loupe Cell Browser 3.0 to analyze single-cell chromatin accessibility data from Cell Ranger ATAC, please consult the Loupe Cell Browser ATAC documentation.
Compatibility with Cell Ranger and Previous Loupe Versions
Loupe Cell Browser 3.0 can view .cloupe
files generated by Cell Ranger 1.3 and later, and is required for viewing .cloupe
files generated by Cell Ranger 3.0 and later. Files saved within Loupe Cell Browser version 3.0.0 and later will not be readable by versions 1.0.x or 2.0.x of Loupe Cell Browser.
Feature Barcoding Support
Loupe Cell Browser 3.0 includes support for Feature Barcoding applications. It can display counts generated by Cell Ranger 3.0 from all Feature Barcoding analytes, such as cell surface markers, peptide-MHC multimer binding, and CRISPR guide RNAs. Loupe Cell Browser also makes it possible to view t-SNE plots derived from feature barcodes, identify the most enriched feature barcoded analytes from a cluster of cells, or even determine the most preferentially bound antigens from cells with the same clonotype. For more information on how to use Loupe Cell Browser for Feature Barcoding applications, consult the Gene Expression Feature Barcoding and Immune Profiling Analysis with Feature Barcoding tutorials.
Multi-Species Support
Cell Ranger 3.0 now generates a .cloupe
file for multi-species experiments run with a joint reference. Loupe Cell Browser will compute an aggregate transcriptome expression count per cell, to allow for easy segmentation by species, or joint analysis for host-virus applications.
Aggregate Feature Sums
Starting with Cell Ranger 3.0, .cloupe
files include aggregate feature sums, such as the total number of cell surface markers detected per cell, total number of guide RNAs per cell, and total number of counts associated with a custom condition in a Feature Barcoding reference file. Typing "Sum" into any of the feature autocomplete boxes should show the full range of sums available. Sums are not available for .cloupe
files generated with Cell Ranger 2.2 and earlier.
Feature Plot View
The new Feature Plot, available via the new projection selector at the top of the window, makes it possible to graph barcodes by one or two features at a time
Individual features and aggregated feature sums as computed by the Cell Ranger 3.0 and Cell Ranger ATAC pipelines may be plotted in the Feature Plot. The Feature Plot makes it easier to identify cells with high relative expression, to define thresholds for one or two features, and to isolate positive cell populations against negative controls. Both linear and log scales are supported, and it is possible to can color cells in the Feature Plot in the same manner as the t-SNE plots.
Export Projections to SVG
Clicking on the camera icon in the toolbar now shows a menu with actions to export to either PNG or SVG format. Export to SVG format to save the active plot (including axes) for inclusion in papers or higher-resolution contexts. Export to SVG functionality is limited to datasets with 100,000 cell barcodes or lower.
Split View
Split View is now accessible via the toolbar, rather than in the Categories panel. Click on the bottom button on the toolbar to bring up Split View options:
It is now possible to segment t-SNE plots by any category through the Split View menu, even outside Categories mode.
Selecting Genes and Features from the Feature Table
In previous versions of Loupe Cell Browser, clicking on a gene in the gene table would add the gene to the "Heatmap List". In Loupe Cell Browser 3.0, clicking a gene (or other feature) in the table will instead bring up a menu of options.
From this menu, there are options to assign a feature to an existing list, or create a new list. Choosing Set as Active Feature will highlight the expression or accessibility of the feature in the current plot, as in previous versions of Loupe Cell Browser. Selecting Copy to Clipboard copies the feature name to the system clipboard, making it easier to paste into other bioinformatics tools.
Integrated Gene Expression + V(D)J Clonotype Analysis
When using the combined 5′ Gene Expression with T Cell and B Cell Enrichment Kits, it is now possible to measure whole transcriptome gene expression and V(D)J repertoire diversity from the same sample. To facilitate this analysis, Loupe Cell Browser 2.0 allows you to combine the V(D)J and gene expression data with a few clicks:
To find out more about how to conduct an integrated experiment, consult the Single Cell Gene Expression + V(D)J page. For a complete Loupe how-to including some example data, go to Integrated Gene Expression and V(D)J Analysis in Loupe Cell Browser.
The complete list of V(D)J features in Loupe Cell Browser includes:
- Import one or more .vloupe files (e.g, T and B cell data) into a single .cloupe workspace
- Save and share loaded clonotype lists into the .cloupe file
- Visual overlays indicating location of cells in the visible clonotype list
- Filter clonotype list by gene expression cluster, gene names, and CDR3 motifs
- Filter between one or all .vloupe files at a time
- Highlight individual clonotypes in the clonotype list
- Create and save new clusters from selected clonotypes
- Toggle between gene names and CDR3 sequences of chains
- On import, detect whether a V(D)J dataset is associated with the loaded gene expression data
Additional Significant Gene Options
Loupe Cell Browser 2.0.0 removes most limits on the set of genes returned by calculating significant genes, and gives you several filtering options. Click on the Options button on the Significant Genes panel to see all options:
Changes include:
- The list now includes all genes that are upregulated in a cluster, and have a mean expression level across the dataset of one transcript per cell or higher. Previous behavior was to return the top 20 upregulated genes per cluster.
- It is now the default to sort significant genes by p-value. You can also sort by regulation change compared to mean.
- View the top upregulated genes per cluster, downregulated genes per cluster, all significant genes per cluster, or limit comparison to genes in the currently visible Gene Expression list.
- Optionally disable the low average transcript count filter, to show the expression level of all genes detected in the sample.
- Choose the top number of genes to display when exporting to CSV.
- The heatmap will now display the top upregulated genes per cluster by p-value.
Additional Fixes
- Added "Gene Exp Min" as a coloring and filtering option in gene expression, allowing you to view cells in which Gene 1 AND Gene 2 AND Gene 3 are expressed.
- Add option to change background color to black, via the View menu.
- More prevalent links to help and the online tutorial.
- Auto-detect when a user may need to upgrade video drivers on Windows, instead of crashing.
- Trigger Save As... when attempting to save a read-only file.
- Change bundled tutorial to read-only.
Category Import and Export
We recognize that there are many scripts and packages in the single-cell analysis ecosystem, and that you may want to import and export labels into and out of Loupe Cell Browser. We've made this easy to do in Loupe Cell Browser 1.0.5. When Categories mode is active, simply click on the action button to the right of the active category name, and select from one of the import/export options. Video guide is available here.
The requirements on the CSV file are that barcodes must be in the first column, the first row must be a header, the barcode column header must be named barcode
, and that the values of the barcodes must match at least a subset of the barcodes in the .cloupe file.
Here's an example that you can import into the AMLTutorial dataset bundled with Loupe Cell Browser. It's a set of manual annotations for the Patient sample. You can import multiple categories at once from a single CSV file; each column will encode its own category.
Renaming and Recoloring Clusters
You can now rename and recolor the clusters you create, or clusters automatically generated by the Cell Ranger pipeline. In Categories mode, right-click (Windows)or Ctrl-click (Mac) a label or color. A context menu will appear, and you'll be able to edit the cluster name or cluster color, as shown in the video here.
Changes to Cell Ranger-derived clusters will appear as separate clusterings to users of older versions of Loupe Cell Browser.
