A dataset of single-cell transcriptomic atlas of Bama pig and potential marker genes across seven tissues

Abstract The use of single-cell sequencing technology for single-cell transcriptomics studies in pigs is expanding progressively. However, the comprehensive classification of cell types across different anatomical tissues and organs of pig in multiple datasets remains relatively limited. This study...

Description
Summary:Abstract The use of single-cell sequencing technology for single-cell transcriptomics studies in pigs is expanding progressively. However, the comprehensive classification of cell types across different anatomical tissues and organs of pig in multiple datasets remains relatively limited. This study employs single-cell and single-nucleus sequencing technologies in Bama pig to identify unique marker genes and their corresponding transcriptomic profiles across diverse cell types in various anatomical tissues and organs, including subcutaneous fat, visceral fat, psoas major muscle, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney. Through detailed data analyses, we observed widespread cellular diversity across various anatomical tissues and organs of Bama pig. This work contributes a comprehensive dataset that supports physiological studies and aids in the identification and prediction of potential marker genes through single-cell transcriptomics of these tissues. The methodologies and data employed in this study are designed to improve the accuracy of cell type identification and ensure consistent cell type allocation.
