Be still my scientific ❤️.... @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social high resolution spatial transcriptomics on human meninges 🤩 work from Kevin Petrecca group at McGill University led by Theresa Degenhard - www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧪 #Neuroscience

MERFISH confirms the spatial arrangement of meningeal cell types in situ.

(A) Annotated schematic of meningeal anatomy using a representative H&E image and MERFISH panel. Primary neuroanatomical features of the meninges include: periosteal and meningeal layers of the dura; dura border cells; arachnoid barrier cells, subarachnoid space; trabeculae; blood vessel (BV)-covering pia; brain-covering pia; and astrocytic end feet of the glial limitans superficialis. H&E scale bar = 200μm; MERFISH scale bar = 100μm. (B) Two representative MERFISH panels from two samples demonstrating the spatial arrangement of primary cell types by visualizing all transcripts associated with cell type signatures. Dotted white boxes B1-4 indicate magnified regions. Each cell type is represented by a different colour. White arrows point to contact points of meningeal fibroblasts and vascular cells. P = Pia; A = Arachnoid; AT = Arachnoid Trabeculae; E = Endothelia only. Scale bars = 100μm. (C) Two representative MERFISH panels from two samples demonstrating the spatial arrangement of primary cell types by visualizing cell types following cluster identification and segmentation. Dotted white boxes C1-4 indicate magnified regions. Each cell type is represented by a different colour. White arrows point to contact points of meningeal fibroblasts and vascular cells. P = Pia; A = Arachnoid; AT = Arachnoid Trabeculae; E = Endothelia only. Scale bars = 100μm.
