To develop and evaluate a marker-free single-cell RNA sequencing method capable of resolving cell types and expression patterns within heterogeneous tissues.
Generated single-cell RNA-seq expression profiles and applied clustering algorithms to construct two-dimensional cell maps.
Projected expression data across multiple organizational tiers, encompassing entire populations, distinct functional subpopulations, and individual cells.
Validated the analytical feasibility using transcriptomic profiles obtained from 85 single cells comprising two distinct cell types (N=85).
Successfully separated 85 individual cells into their two respective cell types based on transcriptional signatures alone.
Established a multi-tiered two-dimensional cellular map without requiring prior knowledge or cell-specific marker genes.
