Abstract:
Single-cell RNA sequencing is a method for transcriptome profiling at the single-cell level,and is a hotspot technology in the field of biological research currently.Compared with the common high-throughput RNA sequencing,single-cell RNA sequencing can distinguish the biological differences between single cells,and identify rare cell populations and subpopulations.This review mainly describes the single-cell RNA sequencing method,summarizes current application of this technique in the field of dermatology,and discusses limitations and prospects of this technique.
