Tumor dissociation of highly viable cell suspensions for single-cell omic analyses in mouse models of breast cancer

Cell preparation with a high rate of viable cells is required to obtain reliable single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic data. This protocol describes a technique for digestion and single-cell isolation from mouse mammary tumors to achieve ∼90% of viable cells, which can be subsequently processed in a diverse array of high-throughput single-cell “omic platforms,” both in an unbiased manner or after selection of a specific cell population. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Valdes-Mora et al. (2021).
