Abstract:
FSFC is an emerging technology that can greatly enhance our understanding of the single-cell proteomic landscape. We demonstrate that this application is applicable to cells derived from solid tissues which have traditionally been hampered by their complex autofluorescence signatures and lack of optimized tools for non-immune cells. We present a protocol and discuss key controls that minimize the impact of unmixing errors, enabling us to resolve multiple EC subpopulations isolated from different tissues in models of chronic tissue injury.
Research Topics:
vascular biology, cell heterogeneity, full spectrum flow cytometry.
