a, UMAP representation of the NN–IMN–GC neighbourhood coloured by subclass. Outlines show cell classes. b–d, Three subpopulations indicated in a are highlighted and further investigated: astrocytes (b), ependymal cells (c) and VLMCs (d). UMAP representation and representative MERFISH sections of astrocytes (b), ependymal cells (c) and VLMCs (d) are coloured and numbered by cluster. b,c, Outlines in UMAPs show subclasses. e, Colocalization of tanycyte, ependymal cell and VLMC clusters around V3 and ME, as shown in selected MERFISH sections. f, Colocalization of VLMC, CHOR and ependymal cell clusters in various ventricles, as shown in selected MERFISH sections. ABC, arachnoid barrier cells; BAM, border-associated macrophages; CHOR, choroid plexus; DC, dendritic cells; DCO, dorsal cochlear nucleus; Endo, endothelial cells; NT, non-telencephalon; Peri, pericytes; PIR, piriform cortex; SMC, smooth muscle cells; TE, telencephalon; UBC, unipolar brush cells; VLMC, vascular leptomeningeal cells.
