Minimum number of cells required for the MAST #117

When I am doing DE test between 10 cells vs another 10 cells, I nearly can't find any DEs. After I increased the number of cells to do DE test ( including above 20 cells), I can get about hundreds of DEGs. So may I ask is there minimum number of cell requirement for MAST?

Thanks in advance.
