Abstract
Explosive blast-related traumatic brain injuries (bTBI) are common in war zones and urban terrorist attacks. These bTBIs often result in complex neuropathologic damage and neurologic complications. However, there is still a lack of specific strategies for diagnosing and/or treating bTBIs. The sub-ventricular zone (SVZ), which undergoes adult neurogenesis, is critical for the neurological maintenance and repair after brain injury. However, the cellular responses and mechanisms that trigger and modulate these activities in the pathophysiological processes following bTBI remain poorly understood. Here we employ single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) of the SVZ from mice subjected to a bTBI. This data-set, including 15272 cells (7778 bTBI and 7494 control) representing all SVZ cell types and is ideally suited for exploring the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of bTBIs. Additionally, it can serve as a reference for future studies regarding the diagnosis and treatment of bTBIs.
