Single cell analysis of motor neuron subtypes

A new landmark paper in the area of spinal cord motor neuron development was reported in Nature Communications. Single cell RNA-Seq analysis and mouse genetics were employed to identify new markers of different motor neuron isotopes as well as previously unrecognized subtypes for preganglionic motor neurons that ensure the innervation of ganglionic neurons in pelvic organs.
