PDX Single-Cell RNA Seq

Meduloblastoma tissue (PDX) from Weschsler-Reya Lab

  • Tissue was flash frozen on 10/19/2016 (3 separate chunks)
  • Isolated nuclei:
    • Removed from -80C, transferred quickly to NEB and used scalpel to mash, transferred to dounce
    • 5 strokes with loose pestle
    • 15 strokes with tight pestle -> ice 10 min
    • Filtered 50um filter
    • Centrifuged - re-filtered (30um filter) before FACS -> 5M nuclei
    • Sorted 200K for DROP-seq
    • Froze down remaining unsorted nuclei as potential bulk control


Note: Tissue was very amendable to dissociation


Kidney Samples: Nuclei isolation for Drop-seq

Samples from Sanjay Jain's lab (Washington University):

  • Adult kidney tissue sections (40um) K1600543FBSLC
    • Removed from -80C to ice, quickly added NEB and transferred to dounce
    • 5 strokes with loose pestle -> ice 10 min
    • 15 strokes with tight pestle -> ice 10 min
    • Removed super (Filtered 50um filter) and added 1ml NEB to undissociated tissue
    • 15 strokes with tight pestle -> ice 10 min
    • Removed super (Filtered 50um filter) and added 1ml NEB to undissociated tissue
    • 15 strokes with tight pestle
    • Centrifuged combined nuclei - re-filtered (30um filter) before FACS -> 0.6M nuclei
    • Sorted 200K for DROP-seq
    • Froze down remaining unsorted nuclei as potential bulk control
