However, there is no presently available analytical method capable of dissecting the individual miRNA expression profiles from the highly heterogeneous cells comprising tumor samples. Here, we developed parallel single cell small RNA sequencing (PSCSR-seq), which enables highly sensitive and high-throughput miRNA expression profiling of individual cells. We applied PSCSR-seq to examine the small RNA profiles from large numbers of cultured cancer cells, healthy donor PBMCs, and from a tumor in a melanoma mouse model. We anticipate that PSCSR-seq can be broadly applied for small RNA analysis in cancer research and more generally in life science.
