The Transcription Factor BCL11A Defines Distinct Subsets of Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons
[Cell Reports] Researchers showed that the transcription factor BCL11A was expressed in a subset of midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons in the developing and adult murine brain and in a subpopulation of pluripotent-stem-cell-derived human mDA neurons.

Defining the Nature of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Interneurons via Single-Cell Analysis
[Stem Cell Reports] Researchers applied single-nuclei and single-cell transcriptomics to model interneuron development from human cortex and interneurons derived from PSCs, and provided a direct comparison of various in vitro interneuron derivation methods to determine the homogeneity achieved.

Thermosensitive Collagen/Fibrinogen Gels Loaded with Decorin Suppress Lesion Site Cavitation and Promote Functional Recovery after Spinal Cord Injury
[Scientific Reports] Scientists reported the development of a novel, flowable, thermosensitive, injectable drug delivery system comprising bovine collagen (BC) and fibrinogen (FB) that formed a solid BC/FB gel immediately upon exposure to physiological conditions and could be used to deliver reparative drugs, such as the naturally occurring anti-inflammatory, anti-scarring agent Decorin, into adult rat spinal cord lesion sites.
