Extended Data Fig. 7: Ligand-receptor expression patterns in the septum.
From: Astrocyte specification in the mouse septum is shaped by both developmental origin and local signals
a, b) Representative genes that define MS (a) and LS (b) neurons. MSN: medial septal neuron; LSN: lateral septal neuron. c, d) Highlighted neuron (c) and astrocyte (d) subclusters that were processed by CellphoneDB analysis. e-g) Expression patterns of ligands and receptors in MSN (e), LSN (f), and septal astrocytes (g). h) Expression patterns of Fgf family members in septal neurons. i) Immunostaining for Lhx2 (grey) and Sox9 (magenta) in P30 wild-type septum. Subdivisions of the septum are indicated with white lines. The white arrow indicates a cell with overlapping signals. Scale bars: left, 100 µm; right, 10 µm. j) Proportion of Lhx2+ astrocytes in total astrocytes across different regions. N = 5 mice. Box plots show the median (center), 25th and 75th percentiles (box), and min to max (whiskers).
