Experiment type |
Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing

Summary |
Glial cells are present throughout the entire nervous system and paly a crucial role in regulating physiological and pathological functions, such as infections, acute injuries and chronic neurodegenerative disorders. The glial cells mainly include astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS), and satellite glial cells (SGCs) in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Although the glial subtypes and functional heterogeneity is relatively well understood in mice by recent studies using single-cell or single-nucleus RNA-sequencing, no evidence yet has elucidate the transcriptomic profiles of glia cells in PNS and CNS. Here, we used high-throughput single-nucleus RNA-sequencing to map the cellular and functional heterogeneity of SGCs in human dorsal root ganglion (DRG), and astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes in human spinal cord. In addition, we compared the human findings with previous single-nucleus transcriptomic profiles of glial cells from mouse DRG and spinal cord. This work will comprehensively profile glial cells heterogeneity and will provide a powerful resource for probing the cellular basis of human physiological and pathological conditions related to glial cells.
