CELL ATLAS OF THE CHICK RETINA: SINGLE CELL PROFILING IDENTIFIES 136 CELL TYPES

Retinal structure and function have been studied in many vertebrate orders, but molecular characterization has been largely confined to mammals. We used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to generate a cell atlas of the chick retina. From ~40,000 single cell transcriptomes, we identified 136 cell types distributed among the six classes conserved across vertebrates – photoreceptor, horizontal,…
