Single-cell RNA sequencing of human omental tissue in benign and metastatic ovarian cancer

To elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying omental homeostasis and its transformation during ovarian cancer metastasis, a human omental cell atlas was generated encompassing both benign and metastatic conditions. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on freshly dissociated omental tissue samples from patients with newly diagnosed benign and malignant disease. Samples collected during diagnostic surgery covered distinct anatomical regions, enabling comparison between non-metastasized omentum and sites along the metastatic gradient, including distant, peritumoral, and tumor core areas.

EGAD50000002110	This dataset contains single-cell RNA sequencing data derived from freshly dissociated human omental tissue. The study investigates the transcriptomic landscape of the omentum by comparing samples from patients with benign conditions against those with ovarian cancer metastasis. To capture the heterogeneity of the metastatic niche, sampling was performed across distinct anatomical sites, including non-metastasized tissue, distant omental regions, peritumoral zones, and the tumor core. This comprehensive profiling aims to define the cellular remodeling associated with malignant transformation	Illumina NovaSeq 6000	36
