Innovative aspects and applications of single cell technology for different diseases.

Abstract

Recent developments in single-cell technologies have provided valuable insights from cancer genomics to complex microbial communities. Single-cell technologies including the RNA-seq, next-generation sequencing (NGS), epigenomics, genomics, and transcriptomics can be used to uncover the single cell nature and molecular characterization of individual cells. These technologies also reveal the cellular transition states, evolutionary relationships between genes, the complex structure of single-cell populations, cell-to-cell interaction leading to biological discoveries and more reliable than traditional bulk technologies. These technologies are becoming the first choice for the early detection of inflammatory biomarkers affecting the proliferation and progression of tumor cells in the tumor microenvironment and improving the clinical efficacy of patients undergoing immunotherapy. These technologies also hold a central position in the detection of checkpoint inhibitors and thus determining the signaling pathways evoked by tumor invasion. This review addressed the emerging approaches of single cell-based technologies in cancer immunotherapies and different human diseases at cellular and molecular levels and the emerging role of sequencing technologies leading to drug discovery. Advancements in these technologies paved for discovering novel diagnostic markers for better understanding the pathological and biochemical mechanisms also for controlling the rate of different diseases.
