Characterization of Developmental Trajectories of Dendritic Cell Hematopoiesis Through Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Methods

Single-cell technologies have become valuable tools to trace dendritic cell differentiation trajectories. Here, we illustrate the workflow used for processing of mouse bone marrow for single-cell RNA sequencing and trajectory analyses, as done in Dress et al. (Nat Immunol 20:852-864, 2019). This short methodology is presented as a starting point for researchers just beginning to dive into the complex field of dendritic cell ontogeny and cellular development trajectory analyses.
