description | The loss of compact myocardial cardiomyocyte (compact CM) identity suggests that PRDM16 deficiency may dramatically alter the cellular composition in left ventricular (LV) compact myocardium. To test this hypothesis, we performed single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) to examine gene dysreulation in Prdm16cKO heart. We also performed Visium Spatial Transcriptomics (ST) to facilitate mapping CM clusters to their original locations in the heart. As a result, we were able to demonstrate gene misregulation in Prdm16cKO mouse mainly occurred in LV compact CM. Two E13.5 WT heart samples and two E13.5 Prdm16cKO heart samples (each sample included 3-4 individual hearts) were used for scRNA-seq. |
