    Atf3 defines a population of pulmonary endothelial cells essential for lung regeneration

    Terren K Niethamer, Lillian I Levin ... Edward E Morrisey
    After acute lung injury, the transcription factor Atf3 is essential for regeneration of the capillary endothelium, which is critical for restoring the structure of the lung alveolus.

    Npr3 regulates neural crest and cranial placode progenitors formation through its dual function as clearance and signaling receptor

    Arun Devotta, Hugo Juraver-Geslin ... Jean-Pierre Saint-Jeannet
    A combination of morpholino-based knockdowns, pharmacological inhibitors, and rescue assays reveal a novel role for natriuretic peptide signaling in the regulation of cell fates in the embryonic ectoderm.

    Profiling the bloodstream form and procyclic form Trypanosoma brucei cell cycle using single-cell transcriptomics

    Emma M Briggs, Catarina A Marques ... Keith R Matthews
    Single-cell transcriptomics of cryopreserved parasites reveals extensive cyclic regulation of mRNA abundance by Trypanosoma brucei during the cell cycle.

    Predictive nonlinear modeling of malignant myelopoiesis and tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy

    Jonathan Rodriguez, Abdon Iniguez ... Richard A Van Etten
    A physiological mathematical model of chronic myeloid leukemia, validated by experiments in transgenic mice and clinical data, identifies mechanisms underlying the response to tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy, predicts biomarkers of primary resistance, and suggests new strategies to improve treatment outcomes.

    Sex, strain, and lateral differences in brain cytoarchitecture across a large mouse population

    David Elkind, Hannah Hochgerner ... Amit Zeisel
    Across individuals of a mouse population, brain regions volumes scaled to accommodate the same amount of cells, but left hemisphere cortical regions were denser than right, and several regions of the limbic system were more pronounced in either sex.

    Tiered sympathetic control of cardiac function revealed by viral tracing and single cell transcriptome profiling

    Sachin Sharma, Russell Littman ... Olujimi A Ajijola
    Cardiac-specific neurons residing in stellate ganglia comprised of three subsets of neurons based upon their transcriptomic and neurochemical properties and modulates cardiac sympathetic control.

    Ultrafast (400 Hz) network oscillations induced in mouse barrel cortex by optogenetic activation of thalamocortical axons

    Hang Hu, Rachel E Hostetler, Ariel Agmon
    Brief optogenetic stimulation of thalamocortical axons evoked a 400 Hz wavelet, 'ripplet,' in the extracellular field potential in cortical layer 4, together with phase-locked spike bursts in fast-spiking inhibitory interneurons and alternating excitatory and inhibitory synaptic currents in excitatory cells.

    Approximating missing epidemiological data for cervical cancer through Footprinting: A case study in India

    Irene Man, Damien Georges ... Iacopo Baussano
    The proposed Footprinting framework enables approximation of missing cervical cancer epidemiological data and derivation of context-specific impact projection of cervical cancer prevention measures, assisting public health decisions on cervical cancer prevention in India and other countries.

    Mutation of vsx genes in zebrafish highlights the robustness of the retinal specification network

    Joaquín Letelier, Lorena Buono ... Juan R Martínez-Morales
    Depletion of vsx genes in zebrafish confirms a conserved role in bipolar cells specification across vertebrates, but do not interfere with the formation of the neural retina domain, which reveal an unexpected robustness of the genetic network sustaining the retina.

    Statistical inference reveals the role of length, GC content, and local sequence in V(D)J nucleotide trimming

    Magdalena L Russell, Noah Simon ... Frederick A Matsen IV
    Local sequence context, length, and GC nucleotide content in both directions of the trimming site, together, are highly predictive of V(D)J trimming probabilities for both TR and IG adaptive immune receptor loci.
