RNA-seq data from the EUROBATS Project in four tissues: Fat, LCL, Skin and whole Blood.

EUROBATS consists of RNA-seq data for female twins in lisphoblastoide cell lines (LCL), abdominal adipose tissue (Fat), abdominal skin tissue (Skin) and whole blood (Blood). The samples are a combination of MZ twins, DZ twins and singletons. The goal of the project is to find biomarkers related with the ageing process and cellular senescence.
