Abstract
This is the 10X Genomics protocol to fix, dissociate, and profile RNA from human ovary tissue.
Steps
Cell/Nuclei Isolation Protocol for Human Ovary
The protocol CG000553 REV B was used to fix, dissociate, and isolate cells/nuclei from frozen human ovaries with the following modifications:
-
0.2 mg / mL of Liberase TH was used for dissociation at Step 2b, Page 6.
-
Two extra "spin only" (i.e., steps 3 and 4 ) of the octodissociator protocol were run for each sample due to the presence of intact/ large tissue pieces at the end of the run at Step 2c, Page 6.
-
Counts were performed using the Cellaca PLX Automated Cell counter (PN: PLX-SYS1) and ViaStain AOPI staining solution (PN: CS2-0106-5mL) at Step 2i on page 6.
Chromium Fixed RNA Profiling Reagent Kits
The protocol CG000527 Rev E was used to generate gene expression libraries from fixed cell/nuclei suspension inputs.
Samples were multiplexed in batches of 16 using the user guide CG000565.
