GSE130430: The Developmental Heterogeneity of Human Natural Killer Cells Defined by Single-cell Transcriptome

Bulk RNA sequencing

The heterogeneity of human NK cells has not been fully-defined. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing technology, we find more human NK subsets than previously defined by cell surface markers. The transcriptome-based pseudotime analysis support that CD56bright NK cells are precursors of CD56dim NK cells with identification of a transitional stage. Our data significantly expand our understanding of the heterogeneity and development of human NK cells. SOURCE: Subramaniam Malarkannan (malarkannanlab@gmail.com) - Versiti Blood Research Institute
