Abstract
Uncovering the transcriptomic signatures of quiescent muscle stem cells elicits the regulatory networks on stem cell quiescence. However, the spatial clues of the transcripts are missing in the commonly used quantitative analysis such as qPCR and RNA-seq. Visualization of RNA transcripts using single-molecule in situ hybridization provides additional subcellular localization clues to understanding gene expression signatures. Here, we provide an optimized protocol of smFISH analysis on Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting isolated muscle stem cells to visualize low-abundance transcripts.
