Adult mouse cortical cell taxonomy revealed by single cell transcriptomics

TL;DR: This work constructed a cellular taxonomy of one cortical region, primary visual cortex, in adult mice on the basis of single-cell RNA sequencing and identified 49 transcriptomic cell types, including 23 GABAergic, 19 glutamatergic and 7 non-neuronal types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct descending motor cortex pathways and their roles in movement

TL;DR: Transcriptional profiling and axonal reconstructions identify two types of pyramidal tract neuron in the motor cortex: one type projects to thalamic regions and produces early and persistent preparatory activity, and the other type Projects to motor centres in the medulla and produces motor commands.
