Title hECA: the cell-centric assembly of a cell atlas
Relevance Biology
Data types Transcriptome or Gene expression
Organisms Homo
Description Single-cell omics data can characterize multifaceted features of massive cells and bring significant insights to biomedical researches. The accumulation of single-cell data provides growing resources for constructing atlases for all cells of human organs or the whole body. The true assembly of a cell atlas should be cell-centric rather than file-centric. We proposed a unified information framework enabling seamless cell-centric data assembly and developed a human Ensemble Cell Atlas (hECA) as an instance. hECA version 1.0 assembled scRNA-seq data across multiple studies into one orchestrated data repository. It contains 1,093,299 labeled cells and metadata from 116 published human single-cell datasets, covering 38 human organs and 11 systems.
