Single-cell/nuclei transcriptomics has revolutionised our understanding of cell, tissue, and organismal biology during health and disease of humans and model organisms. However, for non-model species, reassessment and refinement of conventional methods to address novel technical and biological challenges are needed. Here, we evaluate three established nuclei isolation protocols and, building on experiences, optimised single nuclei isolation for parasitic nematodes (SNIP). We test the versatility of SNIP across diverse species and life stages, validating it with snRNA-seq to reveal sex, stage, and tissue-specific gene expression. Optimised protocols will advance the understanding of parasitic nematodes, from fundamental biology to infection and disease.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
