High-quality single-cell transcriptomics from ovarian histological sections during folliculogenesis

Introduction Single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was first achieved by using a quantitative cDNA amplification method and applied to mouse oocytes (Kurimoto et al, 2006; Tang et al, 2009). It has since provided unprecedented opportunities for the study of cellular differentiations, states, and diseases in various biological fields, including developmental biology,…

From these two algorithms, it was possible to integrate them in order to increase performance and Results. Input data may come from microarray, RNA-seq, or single-cell RNA-seq. The input…
