Title Single-cell transcriptome analysis reveals cell lineage specification in temporal-spatial patterns in human cortical development
Relevance Medical
Data types Transcriptome or Gene expression
Organisms Homo sapiens
Description Neurogenesis processes differ in different areas of the cortex in many species, including humans. Here, we performed single-cell transcriptome profiling of the four cortical lobes and pons during human embryonic and fetal development. We identified distinct subtypes of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and their molecular signatures, including a group of previously unidentified transient NPCs. We specified the neurogenesis path and molecular regulations of the human deep-layer, upper-layer, and mature neurons. Additionally, we verified region-specific characteristics of neurons in the cortex, including their distinct electro- physiological features.
