    mRNA signature by cell-type

    I'm new to this forum, and rather ignorant of sequencing and biology. I'm a mathematician by training, now working with biologists and computer scientists.

    The group I work with is interested in mouse pancreas. In particular, I was wondering if anyone has a pointer to an mRNA signature of any pancreatic cell-type in mouse. Apart from cell-types that are special to the pancreas, like beta cells, we are also interested in the mRNA signatures of, for example, macrophages, that are common to all organs.

    Finding the signature of a cell type involves sorting cells into cell types and then sequencing samples with only one cell-type (or mostly one cell-type).

    If anyone know of a forum where this question is more appropriate, I would be grateful to be told.

    Maybe someone has information from one or more mouse pancreas cell-lines.

    Have you tried searching NCBI's GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) or Array Express at the EBI, to see if anyone has deposited gene expression data for these cell types?

      Haven't looked there yet, but will now do so. Thanks.

        Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
        by SEQadmin2


        Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

        The systematic characterization of the human proteome has

        Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
        by SEQadmin2



        Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

        Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
        by SEQadmin2



        Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

        There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...
