Tissue source of different reference data for single cell annotation #206

Closed amanzju closed 2 years ago

amanzju commented 2 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out the right reference data to annotate my own single-cell RNA-seq test data. Say, I have a test data of blood (PBMC) tissue from the human, and in this regard, if I'm not wrong, I can use the MonacoImmuneData reference dataset (since the corresponding GSE144434 dataset clearly mentioned that the PBMCs were isolate from human). For other reference datasets, I can't figure out tissue sources. Could you kindly explain to me how can I consider other reference datasets to annotate my own blood tissue sample dataset?

Thank you! Aman

See the celldex vignette for more information. Or check the documentation pages for each reference set, e.g. ?MonacoImmuneData.
