The paper analyzes single-nucleus RNA-seq data from human spinal cord neurons, identifies motor neurons as rare, and highlights discrepancies with a prior study due to potential misclassification of cholinergic debris.

The paper creates a cross-species transcriptomic atlas of dorsal root ganglia to identify conserved and species-specific gene expression programs related to sensory function.

The paper shows that phospholipase D is essential for M1 PAM-induced long-term depression in rodent prefrontal cortex, and biased M1 PAMs that do not activate PLD have distinct effects on cortical plasticity.
