Normal murine fibroblasts from the colon
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In the colon, a single-layered epithelium lines the crypts, which descend into the underlying mucosa. Surrounding the crypts lies a large network of fibroblasts with diverse functions, including extracellular matrix (ECM) production and stem cell maintenance. However, functional diversity of those cells remains unexplored. To address fibroblast heterogeneity in colon homeostasis, we conducted single-cell RNA sequencing on epithelium-stripped colonic mucosal samples of aSMACre:mTmG-reporter mouse. We found 6 clusters of fibroblasts.
