Genomic Analysis of Hematopoietic Stem Cell at the Single-Cell Level: Optimization of Cell Fixation and Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) Protocol.

ABSTRACT: Single-cell genomics has become the method of choice for the study of heterogeneous cell populations and represents an elective application in defining the architecture and clonal evolution in hematological neoplasms. Reconstructing the clonal evolution of a neoplastic population therefore represents the main way to understand more deeply the pathogenesis of the neoplasm, but it is also a potential tool to understand the evolution of the tumor population with respect to its response to therapy. Pre-analytical phase for single-cell genomics analysis is crucial to obtain a cell population suitable for single-cell sorting, and whole genome amplification is required to obtain the necessary amount of DNA from a single cell in order to proceed with sequencing. Here, we evaluated the impact of di
