Single cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq analysis of cardiac progenitor cell transition states and lineage settlement

Cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) form cardiomyocytes, pericytes, smooth muscle and endothelial cells during embryonic development. Here, the authors characterize mouse CPCs marked by Nkx2.5 and Isl1 from E7.5 to E9.5 by single cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq, showing fate transitions involve distinct open...
