Merged summary

TL;DR - A whole-mouse-brain map reveals that lipids are spatially organized into distinct zones and that this organization changes during pregnancy. This lipid architecture differs from patterns captured by gene-expression and protein atlases.

  • Maps the distribution of fats across the entire mouse brain.
  • Identifies a spatial organization not evident in transcriptomic or proteomic maps.
  • Reports pregnancy-associated reorganization of brain lipid zones.
  • The provided excerpt does not specify the mapping methods, lipid classes, or functional consequences.
