Atlas-Guided Cell-Specific Transcriptomics Identifies Pathway-Level Remodeling of Human Hypothalamic CRH Neurons in Opioid Use Disorder
Opioid use disorder (OUD) disrupts hypothalamic stress signaling, yet the molecular state of human paraventricular nucleus (PVN) corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons remains poorly defined. Using single-nucleus RNA sequencing of 343,819 human hypothalamic nuclei, we applied complementary human HYPOMAP/MapMyCel...
