Gene expression profile at single cell level of skin cells from back skin of control and Piezo1 inducible knock-out mice. Gene expression profile at single cell level of skin cells from back skin of control and Piezo1 inducible knock-out mice

Piezo1 is a mechanoactive calcium ion channel and is expressed in skin cells. We used single cell RNA sequencing (ScRNAseq) to analyze the functions of mechanical sensing by Piezo1 in hair follicle cells. Overall design: Back skin cells of control and Piezo1 inducible knock-out mice were isolated by collagenase and trypsin digestion.
