    Pigmentation level of human iPSC-derived RPE does not indicate a specific gene expression profile

    Yoko Nakai-Futatsugi, Jianshi Jin ... Masayo Takahashi
    Pigmentation that confers protective function of RPE is not underlaid by a specific gene expression profile, reviled by microscopic imaging together with single-cell RNA sequencing.

    Downregulation of Mirlet7 miRNA family promotes Tc17 differentiation and emphysema via de-repression of RORγt

    Phillip A Erice, Xinyan Huang ... Antony Rodriguez
    Mirlet7 functions as a molecular brake of CD8+IL17a+ T cells (Tc17) inflammation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease via direct regulation RAR-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt).

    Early acquisition of S-specific Tfh clonotypes after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is associated with the longevity of anti-S antibodies

    Xiuyuan Lu, Hiroki Hayashi ... Sho Yamasaki
    Clonotypic tracing of SARS-CoV-2–responsive T cells reveals vaccination-induced dominant Tfh clonotypes, not pre-existing T cells, associated with sustained humoral response, and can serve as an index of antigen-specific antibody longevity.

    Some mechanistic underpinnings of molecular adaptations of SARS-COV-2 spike protein by integrating candidate adaptive polymorphisms with protein dynamics

    Nicholas James Ose, Paul Campitelli ... Sefika Banu Ozkan
    Insights from integrating evolutionary predictions and protein dynamics unveil how specific mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein epistatically interact in order to influence spike protein interaction with human cells, potentially altering the virus's infectivity and immune evasion capabilities.
