Rare cell populations can be challenging to characterize using microfluidic single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) platforms. Typically, the population of interest must be enriched and pooled from multiple biological specimens for efficient collection. However, these practices preclude the resolution of sample origin together with phenotypic data and are problematic in experiments in which biological or technical variation is expected to be high (e.g., disease models, genetic perturbation screens, or human samples). One solution is sample multiplexing whereby each sample is tagged with a unique sequence barcode that is resolved bioinformatically. We have established a scRNA-seq sample multiplexing pipeline for mouse retinal ganglion cells using cholesterol-modified-oligos and utilized the enhanced precision to investigate cell type distribution and transcriptomic variance across retinal samples. As single cell transcriptomics are becoming more widely used to research development and disease, sample multiplexing represents a useful method to enhance the precision of scRNA-seq analysis. |
