Characterizing the cellular heterogeneity of human ureter tissues using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics provides a detailed atlas of cell types, signaling networks, and potential cell-cell cross talk underlying developmental and regenerative pathways. We describe an optimized protocol for generating, cryopreserving, and thawing single-cell suspensions from ureter tissues isolated post-cystectomy for scRNA-seq. In addition, we describe an optimized protocol for cryopreserving human ureter tissues for 10x Genomics Visium spatial gene expression platform. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Fink et al. (2022).1.
