Protocol for optimized dissociation of human scalp tissue for hair follicle transcriptomics by scRNA-seq
Summary: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful tool for studying transcriptomics. Here, we present an optimized protocol for dissociating human scalp tissue and acquiring high-quality single-cell suspension for scRNA-seq to study transcriptomics of human hair follicles. We describe st...

description | Summary: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a powerful tool for studying transcriptomics. Here, we present an optimized protocol for dissociating human scalp tissue and acquiring high-quality single-cell suspension for scRNA-seq to study transcriptomics of human hair follicles. We describe steps for human scalp tissue cleaning, subcutaneous fat removal, mechanical mincing, and enzymatic digestion. We then detail procedures for cleaning, resuspending, a cell viability assay, and library construction. : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
