A Single-Cell Transcriptomic Atlas of Human Skin Aging

This dataset contains structured tables extracted from the supplementary materials of the publication:

"A single-cell transcriptomic atlas of human skin aging"
Cell Reports, 2020
DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2020.108132

The data has been processed from the publication PDF into a .parquet file to facilitate downstream analysis and integration into machine learning workflows.


πŸ“¦ Dataset Description

The dataset includes multiple tables capturing aging-related transcriptomic changes in human skin tissue at the single-cell level. Tables were extracted using PDF parsing tools and contain gene expression summaries and annotations useful for skin biology and aging research.


πŸ”§ Usage Instructions

To load the Parquet file in Python:

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_parquet("skin_aging_data.parquet")
print(df.head())

πŸš€ Use Cases

  • Aging biomarker discovery in dermal and epidermal compartments
  • Training skin-specific biological age predictors
  • Integrating skin aging profiles with other tissue atlases
  • Cross-species comparison of skin aging signatures
  • Evaluation of anti-aging interventions at single-cell resolution
