Single-cell analysis of T-cells from mouse neonate thymuses in a wild type control and a placental specific isoform of Igf2 knock-down (igf2-P0)

ABSTRACT: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) causes a wide variety of developmental defects in the neonate which can lead to heart disease, diabetes, anxiety and other disorders later in life. The effect of FGR on the immune system, however, is poorly understood. Immune cells throughout development are identified using cell-surface markers to distinguish between subtly different stages. These (surface) proteins, however, do not necessarily generate differences in cellular activity and may thus be only a coincidental shallow guide to classifying cells. High-throughput single-cell transcriptomics using DropSeq was performed on mouse neonate thymuses. The T-cell population was selected through flow cytometry in wild type controls and a placental specific isoform of Igf2 knock-down (igf2-p0). Using this ana
