Abstract:The pituitary gland regulates key physiological functions, including growth, sexual maturation, reproduction, and lactation. Here, we present a paired single-nuclei (sn) transcriptome and chromatin accessibility characterization of six post-mortem human pituitaries. These samples were from juvenile, adult, and elderly male and female subjects. Well-correlated snRNAseq and snATACseq datasets facilitated robust identification of the major pituitary cell types in each sample. Using latent variable pathway analysi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
