Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of TRAP from grafted human neural stem cells in stroke and naïve rat brains

Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of grafted hNSC transcriptome, with biologic replicates, generated by TRAPseq technology. TRAPseq and RSEM could be applied to many xenograft cell transplantation paradigms. With this approach we can start to predict upstream regulators that signal between the host and graft, and to predict the downstream signaling pathways and biological processes these upstream regulators might affect.
