An optimized protocol for isolation of murine pancreatic single cells with high yield and purity

Summary: Here, we present a protocol for rapidly isolating single cells from the mouse pancreas, minimizing damage caused by digestive enzymes in exocrine cells. We guide you through steps to optimize the dissection sequence, enzyme composition, and operational procedures, resulting in high yields o...

Description
Summary:Summary: Here, we present a protocol for rapidly isolating single cells from the mouse pancreas, minimizing damage caused by digestive enzymes in exocrine cells. We guide you through steps to optimize the dissection sequence, enzyme composition, and operational procedures, resulting in high yields of viable pancreatic single cells. This protocol can be applied across a wide range of research areas, including single-cell sequencing, gene expression profiling, primary cell culture, and even the development of spheroids or organoids.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Jiang et al. (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
