Cortical somatostatin long-range projection neurons and interneurons exhibit divergent developmental trajectories. KU Leuven Flanders Institute for Biotechnology
The mammalian cerebral cortex contains an extraordinary diversity of cell types that emerge by implementing different developmental programs. Delineating when and how cellular diversification occurs is particularly challenging for cortical inhibitory neurons because they represent a small proportion of all cortical cells and have a protracted development. Here, we combine single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to characterize the ...
