Project description:We have identified that VCAM1 is heterogeneously expressed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). In this experiment, we aimed to identify genes which are regulated by TNF and genes which are differentially regulated in the highest and lowest 5% VCAM1 expressing cells.
Project description:We found that single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq)dataneeded to have2,000or more cellsin a cluster to identify the majority of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with modest differences, while as few as 50-100cells weresufficient for identifying the majority of DEGs withextremely small p values or high abundance.The findings provide a quantitativereference for designing and interpreting studies that usescRNA-seq datato identify DEGs.
