Description
This study was conducted to determine heterogeneity of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in mammary tumors, by unsupervised analysis of single cell transcriptomes. Overall design: 768 single EpCAM-, CD45-, CD31- NG2- fibroblasts were isolated from mammary tumors of two 14 week old MMTV-PyMT mice. The cells were sequenced following the Smart-Seq2 protocol (Picelli et al. Nature Methods 2013).
