Single-cell and spatial atlases of spinal cord injury in the Tabulae Paralytica

Bernard Schneider, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Michael V. Sofroniew, Jocelyne Bloch, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Michael Alexander Skinnider

Here, we introduce the Tabulae Paralytica—a compilation of four atlases of spinal cord injury (SCI) comprising a single-nucleus transcriptome atlas of half a million cells, a multiome atlas pairing transcriptomic and epigenomic measurements within the same ...

Best practices for differential accessibility analysis in single-cell epigenomics

Grégoire Courtine, Jordan Squair, Michael Alexander Skinnider

Differential accessibility (DA) analysis of single-cell epigenomics data enables the discovery of regulatory programs that establish cell type identity and steer responses to physiological and pathophysiological perturbations. While many statistical method ...

Recovery of walking after paralysis by regenerating characterized neurons to their natural target region

Bernard Schneider, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Mark Andrew Anderson, Katia Galan, Newton Cho, Jocelyne Bloch, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Marco Milano, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Anna Lasne, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Steven Lee Ceto, Michael Alexander Skinnider

Axon regeneration can be induced across anatomically complete spinal cord injury (SCI), but robust functional restoration has been elusive. Whether restoring neurological functions requires directed regeneration of axons from specific neuronal subpopulatio ...

Confronting false discoveries in single-cell differential expression

Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Mark Andrew Anderson, Claudia Kathe, Nicholas David James, Jordan Squair, Matthieu Pierre Gautier, Gioele La Manno, Thomas Haynes Hutson, Rémi Bernard René Hudelle, Michael Alexander Skinnider

Differential expression analysis of single-cell transcriptomics allows scientists to dissect cell-type-specific responses to biological perturbations. Here, the authors show that many commonly used methods are biased and can produce false discoveries. ...
