Using single-nucleus RNA-sequencing to interrogate transcriptomic profiles of archived human pancreatic islets

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Human pancreatic islets are a central focus of research in metabolic studies. Transcriptomics is frequently used to interrogate alterations in cultured human islet cells using single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq). We introduce single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) as an alternative approach for investigating transplanted human islets. METHODS: The Nuclei EZ protocol was used to obtain nuclear...
