scRNA-seq of mouse liver tissue derived from young and old mice
We want to investigate how cells in the specific zones in murine liver are affected by age-related changes of the microenvironment. To this end, we generated high-quality scRNA-seq dataset of hepatocytes using Smart-seq3express from 2 young (3-5 months) and 2 old (18-20 months) male mice. Livers were perfused and viable hepatocytes were FACS-sorted based on size. In addition, we recorded ploidy levels of hepatocytes. We retained 545 hepatocytes in total after initial filtering.
