Research Abstract |
In the aim of gene expression analysis from single-cells, micro-tools enabling accurate separation of target single-cells and high efficient mRNA extraction methods were developed. Gene expression and sequence analyses from single immune cells were achieved by the methods using the micro-tools. The developed cell analysis techniques have further potential as a valuable and widely applicable for studies on gene screening and expression analyses of various kinds of cells.
