Expression profiling: scRNA-seq (mouse)

https://rdp.sfb274.de/ (Research Data Platform) https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/408885537 (DFG Gepris entry) The central nervous system (CNS) is a terminally differentiated tissue, where any insult carries a heightened risk - yet the tissue response to these insults is variable and can range from irreversible destruction to almost complete recovery. The rules that instruct these divergent outcomes are still unknown. The aim of this CRC is therefore to understand the biology of the multicellular ...

Since the first funding period, Z02 has provided comprehensive support for all our research projects, from experimental design to bioinformatics data analysis. We specialize in bulk and single-cell genomic methods, including technologies like 10x Genomics and flow-cytometry based isolation methods. Additionally, we offer training on tissue preparation, single-cell sorting, and the use of 10x Genomics equipment to ensure high-quality data. By centralizing sample preparation, sequencing, and analysis, ...

A hallmark of nervous system aging is a decline of white matter volume and function, but the underlying mechanisms leading to white matter pathology are unknown. In the present study, we found age-related alterations of oligodendrocyte cell state with a reduction in total oligodendrocyte density in aging murine white matter. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing, we identified interferon (IFN)-responsive oligodendrocytes, which localize in proximity to CD8(+) T cells in aging white matter. Absence of ...

Study of oligodendrocytes and microglia in aging in a tissue-specific manner (white and gray matter) using the 10X single-cell RNA-sequencing platform. We also analyzed Rag1-deficient mice to study how the lack of mature T cells affect the age-dependent glial alterations that occur in the white matter.
