研究者们收集了 12个中国成年人的尿液,we performed scRNA-seq on voided urine samples. 50–100 mL middle stream urine samples were collected from 12 Chinese healthy adults and combined for droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing after flow cytometric sorting of live cells.
质量控制也比较常规:We removed the low-quality cells with less than 200 or more than 5000 detected genes, or if their mitochondrial gene content was > 25%. Genes were filtered out that were detected in less than 3 cells.
