SMART-seq profiling of the ascending aorta and aortic arch from male and female Wnt1-Cre;Rosa26-mTmG mice

Listed in NCBI GEO

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the ascending aorta and aortic arch arise from two distinct embryonic origins: the second heart field (SHF) and the cardiac neural crest (CNC).

Description

Whether these populations exhibit sex-dependent differences remains unknown. Here, we used Wnt1-Cre;Rosa26-mTmG mice to genetically label CNC-derived VSMCs with GFP, while non-CNC-derived cells expressed tdTomato.

The ascending aorta and aortic arch were dissected from male and female mice, and single-cell suspensions were generated by enzymatic digestion. Cells were then sorted by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) based on GFP or tdTomato expression. RNA-expression profiles for each group were obtained using the Smart-seq platform.
