| Description |
ST was applied to lumbar spinal cord tissue sections (L3 to L5) from SOD1-G93A (ALS) and SOD1-WT (control) mice at presymptomatic, onset, symptomatic, and end-stage time points. Then ST was applied to postmortem lumbar and cervical spinal cord tissue sections from either lumbar- or bulbar-onset sporadic ALS patients, resulting in more than 76,000 spatial gene expression measurements (SGEMs) mapping to ~1200 spinal cord tissue sections of 67 mice, and more than 60,000 SGEMs mapping to 80 postmortem spinal cord tissue sections from seven patients. |
