A new story at The Transmitter about the PRECISION Human Pain Network's new DRG cell atlas: www.thetransmitter.org/peripheral-n... So rewarding to hear about colleagues who are already using our datasets in their own work.
‘Unprecedented’ dorsal root ganglion atlas captures 22 types of human sensory neurons
The atlas also offers up molecular and cellular targets for new pain therapies.

If you thought that putting Brazilians and a Argentinean together would be like "entering a world of pain," you were right! Led by @szczotml.bsky.social, we're glad to see this team effort coming together.

Not all pain is created equal: stepping on a nail feels different from a stomachache. We know there are many nociceptor types, but a key question remains: how is mechanical pain encoded across the body by those sensory neurons? Our new work helps answer this. 1/8

Hierarchical organization of mechano-nociceptive pathways revealed by activity labeling
Noxious mechanical stimuli give rise to distinct percepts, from sharp cutaneous pain to diffuse visceral discomfort, yet the nociceptor ensembles that underlie these differences remain poorly defined....

The BIG DRG paper is now up on @biorxiv-neursci.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... so many people worked so hard to make this happen. Props to the whole PRECISION Human Pain Network.
A Reference Atlas of the Human Dorsal Root Ganglion
Somatosensory perception largely emerges from diverse peripheral sensory neurons whose cell bodies reside in dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Damage or dysfunction of DRG neurons is a major cause of chronic...
