The paper compares snRNA-seq data across species to identify cellular differences in the striatum, finding novel interneuron types in bats and differences in neuron-to-glia ratios between primates and non-primates.

The paper shows that Foxp1 and Foxp2 compensate for each other in D1-SPNs, and their loss causes motor and social deficits, which can be reversed by re-expressing Foxp1.
