Navigating the complex landscape of single-cell transcriptomic data presents significant challenges. Central to this challenge is the identification of a meaningful representation of high-dimensional gene expression patterns that sheds light on the structural and functional properties of cell types. Pursuing model interpretability and computational simplicity, we often look for a linear transformation of the original […]

ObjectivePatients with small fiber neuropathy (SFN) suffer from neuropathic pain, which is still a therapeutic problem. Changed activation patterns of mechano-insensitive peripheral nerve fibers (CMi) could cause neuropathic pain. However, there is sparse knowledge about mechanisms leading to CMi dysfunction since it is difficult to dissect specific molecular mechanisms in humans. We used an in-silico […]

IntroductionThe accumulation of neurofibrillary tau tangles, a neuropathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), occurs in medial temporal lobe (MTL) regions early in the disease process, with some of the earliest deposits localized to subregions of the entorhinal cortex. Although functional specialization of entorhinal cortex subregions has been reported, few studies have considered functional associations with […]
