Brain Sterol Atlas A Data Visualizer for Sterol Lipids in Mouse Brain

About

The Brain Sterol Atlas provides an interface for users to explore the concentrations of sterol lipids (~200) measured in 10 mouse brain regions. It could show the spatial  distrubutions and concentrations of sterol lipids among different brain regions of mice. The concentrations of sterol lipids were measured by ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) based four-dimensional sterolomics technology. The spatial maps of mouse brain were sourced from Allen Institute (https://atlas.brain-map.org/).
