Hello everyone.
I am trying to get RNAseq data from Mouse Whole Cortex and Hippocampus (SMART-seq) database.
My interest is to look at the differential expression of a gene between three major excitatory subclasses in mouse L2/3 - L2/3 IT VISp Rrad, L2/3 IT VISp Adamts2, L2/3 IT VISp Agmat (Berg et al, 2021).
Although in the metadata this information is not accessible. What you can select, is a subclass_label - L2/3 IT CTX. This indeed helps to find gene expression for these types, but not the difference between them.
There is also a subclass_order, which is an order of the subclass in Transcriptomic Explorer, but these types are not there either. I tried to find anything which would connect the types I am interested in with subclass_order, but I failed.
Does anyone know if this is possible at all to select RNAseq data based on specific cell types, as in the human dataset, or not?
Thanks in advance!
Anna
