Getting Started with scRNA-seq: Sequencing and Data Analysis

 Single Cell RNA Sequencing (scRNA-seq) is helping researchers uncover new insights in ways not possible with traditional bulk RNA sequencing methods. For researchers interested in learning more or just getting started, we’ve developed a series of three educational webinars focused on demystifying scRNA-seq. In our third and final webinar in the series, we described unique considerations for sequencing and data analysis when doing scRNA-seq experiments.

Single Cell RNA-seq Sheds Light on the Role of Microglia in Alzheimer’s Disease

In this webinar, Dr. Swarup, demonstrates the protective functions of microglia in reducing CAA, blood-brain barrier dysfunction, and brain calcification. Examination of human AD tissue and iPSC-microglia demonstrates that microglia phagocytose calcium crystals and is impaired by the loss of the AD risk gene, TREM2.

Using Single Cell RNA Sequencing (scRNA-Seq) to Examine What Makes Cancer Possible

In this webinar, Dr. Katerina Gurova, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, describes how she used scRNA-Seq to examine whether the transition between one epigenetic state into another makes cells vulnerable to oncogene induced transformation.

High Sensitivity Single Cell RNA Sequencing with Evercode Whole Transcriptome v2

Single cell RNA sequencing has become a core tool for researchers to understand biology. As scRNA-seq has become more ubiquitous, many applications demand higher scalability and sensitivity. To meet this need, we developed the Evercode Whole Transcriptome v2 solution, a combinatorial barcoding workflow for scRNA-seq with dramatically improved sensitivity, robustness, and unbiased gene expression.

Single-cell Transcriptomic Landscape in Alzheimer's Disease

The gene-regulatory landscape of the brain is highly dynamic in health and disease, coordinating a menagerie of biological processes across distinct cell types. Understanding these regulatory programs requires a holistic experimental and analytical approach. Here, we present a single-cell study of 380,000 nuclei in late-stage Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) using parse biosciences whole transcriptome kit, profiling gene expression in thousands of genes and uncovering vast neuronal and glial heterogeneity in late-stage AD.

Mapping and Modeling the Genomic Basis of Differential RNA Isoform Expression at Single-cell Resolution

In this informative webinar recording, Elisabeth Rebboah, UC Irvine, discusses overcoming these obstacles to perform differential RNA isoform expression at single-cell resolution using the split pool combinatorial barcoding protocol from Parse Biosciences along with a combination of short read sequencing to characterize cell types and long read sequencing to reveal full-length isoforms.

Single Cell RNA-Seq on the Frontlines: High Multiplex and Time-course Experiments Expand Utility

Experimental designs are growing alongside the increased throughput requirements of single-cell RNA-Seq assays. Replicates, disease states, and time-course designs dramatically increase the number of samples and the burden of information gleaned from a single experiment. Alongside these considerations is a substantial increase in the implications of the results. Our speakers discuss the ramifications of higher-order studies on needs for data quality, throughput attenuation, and sample longevity.

Uncovering Glioblastoma Heterogeneity in Solid Tumor and Tumor-derived in vitro Models

Glioblastoma remains the most common form of brain cancer, exhibiting enormous heterogeneity in the tumor and immune compartments within both the same tumor and between patients. To characterize this heterogeneity within tumor samples and in vitro models, we utilized the Parse Evercode V2 assay to profile whole cells processed from a patient-derived neurosphere line alongside nuclei isolated from a piece of flash-frozen glioblastoma tissue. This session is part of Parse Biosciences' 2023 Brain Awareness Month.
