Astrocytes drive divergent metabolic gene expression in humans and chimpanzees
2020-11-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The human brain utilizes ∼ 20% of all of the body’s metabolic resources, while chimpanzee brains use less than 10%. Although previous work shows significant differences in metabolic gene expression between the brains of primates, we have yet to fully resolve the contribution of distinct brain cell types. To investigate cell-type specific interspecies differences in brain gene expression, we cond...
