single cell RNA seq data of 3 healthy sample from frontal lobe and temporal lobe

Frontotemporal lobe abnormalities are linked to neuropsychiatric disorders and cognition, but the role of cellular heterogeneity between temporal lobe (TL) and frontal lobe (FL) in the vulnerability to genetic risk factors remains to be elucidated. We provided single-nucleus transcriptome analysis in “fresh” human FL and TL which are integrated with genetic susceptibility, gene dysregulation in neuropsychiatric disease, and psychoactive drug response data. We show how intrinsic differences between TL and FL contribute to the vulnerability of specific cell types to both genetic risk factors and psychoactive drugs. Neuronal populations, specifically PVALB-neurons, were most highly vulnerable to genetic risk factors for psychiatric disease. These psychiatric disease-associated genes were mostly upregulated in the TL, and dysregulated in the brain of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. these data provide prefound insight into brain frontotemporal lobe.
