A single‐cell atlas of the aging human amygdala: a pilot study

Our pilot study demonstrated the feasibility of generating high-quality, large-scale single-cell multi-omic data from the human amygdala. We observed abundant AD-associated microglia in amygdala, suggesting the possibility that the regional vulnerability of amygdala to multiple neurodegenerative disorders might be in part due to different glial composition.

Abstract

Our pilot study demonstrated the feasibility of generating high-quality, large-scale single-cell multi-omic data from the human amygdala. We observed abundant AD-associated microglia in amygdala, suggesting the possibility that the regional vulnerability of amygdala to multiple neurodegenerative disorders might be in part due to different glial composition.
