The configuration options (Figure 6) includes sample and cell-level attributes. Here, we want to compare different cell types so we will include Classifications

Cells are now labeled with their sample name. Interestingly, samples show characteristic patterns of expression for these genes (Figure 10).

Top GO terms in the enrichment report include "myelin sheath", "ensheathment of neurons", and "axon ensheathment" (Figure 13), which corresponds well with the role of oligodendrocytes in creating the myelin sheath that supports and protect axons in the central nervous system.
