Brigham Researchers Uncover ‘Circular Logic’ of RNAs in Parkinson’s Disease

Caption

Scherzer and colleagues laser-captured neurons from 190 frozen postmortem human brain samples, including some non-neuronal cells for comparison. Then, they used ultra-deep, total RNA sequencing to study the exact sequences of genetic code found in the circular RNAs within these two cell types.
