Project description:Tabula Muris Senis is a single cell transcriptomic atlas of 18 tissues and organs from Mus musculus across the organism’s life span.
Project description:We have created a resource of single cell transcriptome data from the model organism Mus musculus. Contributor: The Tabula Muris Consortium The full list of contributors to this dataset can be found in the corresponding publication.
Project description:We compared gene expression differences in the polytypic species complex Mus musculus (Mus musculus musculus, Mus musculus domesticus, Mus musculus castaneus and Mus musculus ssp) with that of Mus spretus via oligonucleotide microarrays representing more than 20,000 genes. Analysis of the results by two way ANOVA statistics suggests that the most genes with significant differences in expression levels among the subspecies are found in liver and kidney and the least in testis. This picture is different when one compares with Mus spretus, where the largest number of differences is found in testis. The design we employed is a reference design. All tissues were hybridized against a pool of that same tissue from 9 C57BL6 mice. All mice were roughly 12 weeks of age. To control for biological variation, we have used several individual males from each sub-species. RNA was isolated from three different organs, namely brain, liver/kidney and testis.
Project description:Here we present a compendium of single-cell transcriptomic data from the model organism Mus musculus that comprises more than 100,000 cells from 20 organs and tissues. These data represent a new resource for cell biology, reveal gene expression in poorly characterized cell populations and enable the direct and controlled comparison of gene expression in cell types that are shared between tissues, such as T lymphocytes and endothelial cells from different anatomical locations. Two distinct technical approaches were used for most organs: one approach, microfluidic droplet-based 3'-end counting, enabled the survey of thousands of cells at relatively low coverage, whereas the other, full-length transcript analysis based on fluorescence-activated cell sorting, enabled the characterization of cell types with high sensitivity and coverage. The cumulative data provide the foundation for an atlas of transcriptomic cell biology.
