Input–output communication transcriptional signature of SG neurons. a Differential expression of voltage-gated ion channels family among SG neurons. b, c Differential expression of neurotransmission systems including neurotransmitter (NT) receptors, peptides-related molecules, NT transporters, and synaptic vesicles (b) and of calcium-binding protein (c) among SG neurons (see also Supplementary Fig. 3). d Sketch of the SG neuron (SGN) synaptic connection with HC peripherally and with the cochlear nuclei (CN) in the brainstem. Arrows shows direction of the signal transmission. e, f Schematic representation of the transcriptional portrait of the post-synaptic (e) and pre-synaptic (f) sites of SG neuron types, based on differentially expressed gene shown in a, b
