Validation of mouse astrocyte transcriptomic signatures in human neurodegenerative transcriptomic datasets. Violin plots represent the logFC of statistically significant DEGs (p < 0.05) from the acute injury (AI), chronic neurodegenerative (ND), and pan-injury (PAN) mouse astrocyte signatures in diseased versus control human subjects. Note that only the two AD bulk tissue datasets (AD-DLPC and AD-PHG) showed some concordance with the pan-injury-UP mouse astrocyte signatures, but not with any of the others. Abbreviations: AD-DLPC, AD dorsolateral prefrontal cortex from ROSMAP; AD-PHG, AD parahippocampal gyrus from MSBB; AD-astro1, GFAP+ astrocytes laser capture microdissected from lateral temporal cortex; AD-astro2, GFAP+ astrocytes sorted from superior frontal cortex; ALS-SC, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis spinal cord gray matter; PD-SN, Parkinson’s disease substantia nigra; PD-Str, Parkinson’s disease striatum
