Within the vertebrate neocortex and other telencephalic structures, molecularly-defined neurons tend to segregate at first order into GABAergic types and glutamatergic types. Two fundamental questions arise: (1) do non-telencephalic neurons similarly segregate by neurotransmitter status, and (2) do GABAergic (or glutamatergic) types sampled in different structures share many molecular features in common, beyond the few genes directly responsible for neurotransmitter synthesis and release? To address these questions, we used single-nucleus RNA sequencing, analyzing over 2.4 million brain cells sampled from 16 locations in a primate (the common marmoset). Unexpectedly, we find the answer to both is “no”. I will discuss implications for generalizing associations between neurotransmitter utilization and other phenotypes, and share ongoing efforts to map the biodistributions of cell types in the primate brain.
