Our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of LAMA2 -related muscular dystrophy ( LAMA2 -MD) requires improving. Here, we report the phenotype, neuropathology, and transcriptomics data (scRNA-seq ...

Complementing previous work (Namiki et al, 2018), this study provides an important resource for the Drosophila community as it reports 500 lines targeting descending neurons (DN), in addition to ...

The 19 Wnt proteins found in humans are part of a larger superfamily of proteins that are also found in Archaea and Bacteria.

(β-ARs) regulate cardiac function during sympathetic nerve stimulation. β-ARs are present in both the cardiac T-tubule (TTM) and outer surface membrane (OSM), but how their location impacts their ...

An organoid-based screening platform that allows one-gene-at-a-time knockdown across a whole tissue has been used to identify the genes that regulate closure of the neural tube in humans.

Sex-biased gene expression in the body organs evolves rapidly, supporting a mosaic model of maleness and femaleness across tissues and thus challenging binary views of sex characteristics in mammals.

Fully autonomous home-cage training system HABITS enables mice to learn complex cognitive behaviors without human intervention, expanding behavioral paradigms and optimizing training efficiency ...

HPV cfDNA is a highly effective tumor marker for monitoring disease progression and treatment response in HPV-positive cervical cancer, offering valuable insights for guiding clinical decisions in ...
