Abstract
The hippocampal system is a critical component in cognition, adult neurogenesis, and selectively sensitive to aging and neurodegenerative processes. To gain insights into neurogenic potential and diversity of cell types in adult humans, we profiled single-nucleus transcriptomes in five hippocampal subregions. Integration of dentate gyrus data with mouse, pig and macaque, showed strong neurogenesis trajectories in these species that was absent in humans. Doublecortin (DCX), the common marker of... More neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus, showed widespread expression in the human hippocampal system, including some mature dentate granule cells, but did not define immature cell populations in humans. We further revealed prominent diversity among excitatory neurons across the hippocampal system that echoed the transition from three-layered archicortex to six-layered neocortex. Our results highlighted the uncharacterized METTL7B associated with Alzheimer’s disease-related proteins and enriched in primates in neuronal subtypes and subregions more resilient to early neuropathological changes in the Alzheimer’s disease. Overall, our findings unveiled cell typespecific molecular characteristics pertinent to hippocampal physiological function. Less
Abstract (croatian)
Neuralni krugovi hipokampalne (HIP) i entorinalne moždane kore (EC) ključni su dijelovi široke neuronske mreže odgovorne za pamćenje te reprezentaciju prostora i vremena. U svrhu boljeg uvida u pojedinačne neuronske i ne-neuronske populacije tog sustava, provedeno je RNA sekvencioniranje pojedinačnih staničnih jezgara (snRNA-seq) uzoraka iz pet anatomski definiranih podregija hipokampalnog sustava. Integrirana analiza između vrsta pokazala je transkriptomske i histološke znakove neurogeneze u... More odraslim miševima, svinjama i makaki majmunima, ali ne i u ljudi. DCX, marker novonastalih zrnatih stanica, pronađen je u različitim neuronskim populacijama odraslog čovjeka, ali nije definirao populacije nezrelih neurona. Također, opisali smo specifične, subregionalno transkriptomski definirane tipove stanica i promjene u prijelazu iz troslojnog arhikorteksa u šestoslojni neokorteks. Naši rezultati istaknuli su da je METTL7B povezan s proteinima povezanim s Alzheimerovom bolešću i obogaćen u primata u podtipovima stanica i podregijama otpornijim na rane neuropatološke promjene u Alzheimerovoj bolesti. Ovo istraživanje je otkrilo molekularne karakteristike određenih vrsta i podtipova stanica koje potencijalno imaju važnu ulogu u fiziološkoj funkciji i/ili patološkim promjenama hipokampalnog sustava.
