Deciphering cell-type-and temporally specific matrisome expression signatures in human cortical development and neurodevelopmental disorders via scRNA-seq meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Human cortical development is a complex process involving the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of progenitor cells, all coordinated within a dynamic extracellular matrix (ECM). ECM plays a crucial role in guiding these processes, yet its specific contributions and the implications of its dysregulation in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) remain underexplored. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from 37 donors, gestational weeks 8 to 26, across six independent studies to elucidate cell-type-specific matrisome gene expression signatures and their dynamics in the developing human cortex. Our analysis identified distinct matrisome gene signatures across various cell types, with significant temporal changes during cortical development. Notably, a substantial proportion of matrisome genes are associated with NDDs, exhibiting cell-type, temporal, and disease specificity. These findings highlight the critical role of cell-type-specific matrisome regulation in cortical development and its potential involvement in NDD pathogenesis. This study provides a comprehensive map of cell-type-specific matrisome signatures in the developing human cortex and highlights the importance of ECM in both normal development and the pathogenesis of NDDs.
