Transcriptome-scale spatial gene expression in the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.

TL;DR: This article used the 10x Genomics Visium platform to define the spatial topography of gene expression in the six-layered human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and identified extensive layer-enriched expression signatures and refined associations to previous laminar markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional Role of BDNF Production from Unique Promoters in Aggression and Serotonin Signaling

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors generated four mutant mouse lines in which BDNF production from one of the four major promoters (I, II, IV, or VI) is selectively disrupted (Bdnf-e1, -e2, −e4, and −e6 mice).
Journal ArticleDOI

Profiling gene expression in the human dentate gyrus granule cell layer reveals insights into schizophrenia and its genetic risk.

TL;DR: The granule cell layer of the human hippocampus is transcriptomically profile and unique molecular associations for aging and genetic variation, as well as diagnosis with schizophrenia and its genetic risk, that were previously undiscovered in homogenate tissue are found.
