Single-cell isolation from full-thickness human intestinal tissue resections for single-cell RNA sequencing

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Single-cell isolation techniques allow the investigation of physical and functional relationships between individual cells within a complex cell population. Here, we present a protocol for single-cell isolation from full-thickness intestinal tissue resections. We describe steps for pre-processing specimens, isolation of lamina propria and muscular layers, and red blood cell lysis. We then detail fixation of isolated cells and assessment of cell quality. The resulting cell suspension can be subjected to RNA sequencing on the 10× Chromium platform. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Mukherjee et al.1
