List of molecular cell types identified by Tasic et al. (2016) and their corresponding cell types in NeuroExpresso. Matching method column defines how the matching was performed. Direct matches are one to one matching between the definition provided by Tasic et al. (2016) for the molecular cell types and definition provided by microarray samples. For “definition” matches, description of the cell type in the original source is used to find molecular cell types that fit the definition. VIPReln, Vip Sncg matching was done based on unique Sncg expression in VIPReln cells in the microarray data. New cell types are well defined cell types that have no counterpart in microarray data.
