description | Available single-cell RNA-seq analyses have revealed that individual cells of the same type differ substantially in gene expression. We wonder whether glomerular podocytes, the cell type that is part of glomerular filtration, also exhibit big difference in gene expression among individual cells; and what biological information could be obtained from the single-podocyte RNA-seq data. Therefore, we isolated mouse glomeruli by Dynabead/magnetic concentration method, and digested them with enzymes to dissociate the cells. We loaded the single cell suspension to a Fluidigm C1 Single-Cell Auto Prep System for single cell cDNA preparation. The cDNA samples were amplified and underwent sequencing using Illumina Highseq 2000 system. In total, 20 single podocytes from a C57BL/6 male mouse were analyzed. |
