Single cell transcriptome sequencing of the developing human embryonic meninges

There are no effective medical therapies for meningiomas, partly due to our limited understanding of their cellular origin and composition For this purpose, we generated data to make a comprehensive reference single cell and spatial transcriptomic atlas of human fetal meninges. Samples of meninges from human embryos of post-conceptional week (PCW) 5.0-13.0 were dissected and subject to 10Xgenomics chromium single cell RNA sequencing with the purpose of identifying cell types and gene expression programs for normal meninges development, Furthermore, this dataset should help discover cells of origin for meningiomas.

EGAD50000001434	A total of 24 samples of meninges from 13 normal human embryos of post-conceptional week (PCW) 5.0-13.0 were dissected and subject to 10Xgenomics chromium single cell RNA sequencing with the purpose of identifying cell types and gene expression programs for normal meninges development. All libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 using S4 to a target sequencing depth of 100,000 reads/cell. Final data after processing with STARSolo 2.7.10a, using human genome GRCh38.p12 and transcript annotations from ENSEMBL release 93 from reference package GRCh38-3.0.0 as available from 10Xgenomics, consists of 24 BAM files.
