Canonical genetic signatures of the adult human brain
Open accessAbstract
The structure and function of the human brain are highly stereotyped, implying a conserved molecular program responsible for its development, cellular structure and function. We applied a correlation-based metric called differential stability to assess reproducibility of gene expression patterning across 132 structures in six individual brains, revealing mesoscale genetic organization. The genes with the highest differential stability are highly biologically relevant, with enrichment for brain-related annotations, disease associations, drug targets and literature citations. Using genes with high differential stability, we identified 32 anatomically diverse and reproducible gene expression signatures, which represent distinct cell types, intracellular components and/or associations with neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. Genes in neuron-associated compared to non-neuronal networks showed higher preservation between human and mouse; however, many diversely patterned genes displayed marked shifts in regulation between species. Finally, highly consistent transcriptional architecture in neocortex is correlated with resting state functional connectivity, suggesting a link between conserved gene expression and functionally relevant circuitry.

TL;DR
The paper applies a correlation-based “differential stability” (DS) metric to Allen Human Brain Atlas expression data across 132 structures in six adult human brains to identify conserved transcriptional organization. It reports 32 reproducible co-expression modules, links high-DS genes to brain function, disease, and drug targets, compares module conservation with mouse, and finds that conserved cortical gene expression correlates with resting-state functional connectivity.
Key findings
- DS ranged from ΔBR=0.970 to −0.057 across 17,348 uniquely annotated human transcripts; the highest-DS gene was FOXG1 (ΔBR=0.970), and PCDH8 had ΔBR=0.931. The top 10% DS genes (n=1735) were enriched for neuronal functional categories, drug interactions (first decile had 4651 small-molecule/chemical interactions, more than 30 times the third decile), and disease gene sets including mental disorders (p<8.06e-31), schizophrenia (p<9.14e-30), autism (p<3.45e-17), epilepsy (p<1.00e-11), bipolar disorder (p<4.94e-14), and major depression (p<4.60e-10).
- A consensus WGCNA network built from the 50% highest DS genes (ΔBR>0.5284, g=8674) identified 32 modules; 90.1% (15,627) of genes correlated with these patterns at kME>0.4. Modules ranged from largely neuronal (M1–M15) to essentially non-neuronal (M16–M32), with examples including M6 in cortex, M10 in striatum, M11 in thalamus, M12 in substantia nigra, M14 in hypothalamus, M16 in dentate gyrus, and M17 in cerebellum; M25 was associated with immune response (q<3.71e-35) and M30 with myelination/glial ensheathment (q<1.48e-06).
- In human-mouse comparison using 53 matched mouse structures and 2651 genes, neuron-associated modules such as M1, M6, and M7 were better preserved than many non-neuronal modules (M25–M32), though individual genes within even preserved modules sometimes shifted patterning between species.
- In cortex, the top 5th percentile of cortical DS genes (n=867) had ΔCTX>0.357 versus ΔBR>0.854 for whole brain, and only 31% of the top 5% cortical DS genes were in the top 5% of brain-wide DS. Higher cortical DS predicted stronger correlation between functional connectivity and gene expression (ρ=0.46, p<2.2e-16); 136 genes whose polymorphisms affect resting-state functional connectivity had higher expression-connectivity correlation (μ=0.12, p<2.2e-192) and higher cortical DS (ΔCTX=0.40, p<1.2e-325).
Methods
- Data came from the Allen Human Brain Atlas: six neurotypical adult whole brains (3 Caucasian males, 2 African American males, 1 Caucasian woman), with 345–911 samples per brain spanning one or both hemispheres, 232 discrete brain structures sampled at least once, and 132 structures used for the main analysis; expression was profiled with whole-genome Agilent microarrays.
- DS was defined as the average Pearson correlation across 15 pairs of the six brains over a set of anatomic regions; WGCNA was used to construct a consensus co-expression network from the top 50% DS genes, with modules assigned by kME>0.4 and functionally annotated using ToppGene and related databases.
- Cross-species comparison used Allen Mouse Brain Atlas in situ hybridization expression energy for 2651 genes across 53 matched mouse structures; functional connectivity analysis used Human Connectome Project resting-state fMRI data, including a dense connectome from 468 subjects and parcellated connectomes from 447 subjects across 52 left-hemisphere parcels, then correlated gene co-expression matrices with the connectome matrix.
Limitations
- The paper states possible ascertainment bias in regional transcriptional patterns because they may be preferentially annotated in available studies, and notes that approximately 9% of the most conserved gene set has no functional annotation to date.
- The paper states that the mouse comparison used 2651 genes initially chosen because they were potentially biologically interesting, making that set biased; specific proportions of cross-species agreement may not represent the whole transcriptome, though gene assignments as conserved or not should reflect actual conservation in these datasets.
- The paper states that functional connectivity from fMRI is an indirect measure and should not be considered a surrogate for direct anatomical connectivity; it also notes that anatomical sampling was not cell type-specific, and that direct comparisons with previous studies are challenging due to differences in analysis strategies and experimental design.

Mouse regional expression is described as averaged over different voxel sets
MajorOne methods section says mouse expression energy was averaged across all voxels in each matched structure. Another says it was averaged over only the 250 most highly expressed voxels, except in regions with fewer than 250 voxels.
“For each of 53 human structures, average expression energy was calculated across all voxels in matched mouse structures.”
“In mouse, the data was processed by finding the average expression energy (see web documentation above) of the 250 most highly expressed voxels in each of the 53 regions (or all voxels if fewer than 250 in a region)”
Autworks disease-set count differs between sections
MinorThe results give 2,289 Autworks gene sets, while the methods describe the same database as listing 2,288 disease states. The text does not explain the one-set difference.
“based on 2289 gene sets from the Autworks database”
“For disease annotations we used the Autworks database (http://autworks.hms.harvard.edu), listing genes associated with 2,288 disease states, including Autism.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
