    Human DECR1 is an androgen-repressed survival factor that regulates PUFA oxidation to protect prostate tumor cells from ferroptosis

    Zeyad D Nassar, Chui Yan Mah ... Lisa M Butler
    DECR1, a rate-limiting enzyme for polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) β-oxidation, is an androgen-repressed gene in prostate cancer cells that limits oxidative stress to promote cancer cell survival.

    Leveraging inter-individual transcriptional correlation structure to infer discrete signaling mechanisms across metabolic tissues

    Mingqi Zhou, Ian Tamburini ... Marcus M Seldin
    A population resource to investigate mechanisms of organ communication.

    Repeated losses of PRDM9-directed recombination despite the conservation of PRDM9 across vertebrates

    Zachary Baker, Molly Schumer ... Molly Przeworski
    PRDM9 is widely conserved across vertebrates yet has been lost numerous times, as has its role in directing meiotic recombination.

    Deep learning models predict regulatory variants in pancreatic islets and refine type 2 diabetes association signals

    Agata Wesolowska-Andersen, Grace Zhuo Yu ... Mark I McCarthy
    Combination of deep learning models trained on tissue-specific genomic data and fine-mapping approaches supports efforts to identify causal variants and mechanisms at GWAS loci.

    Body mass index and childhood symptoms of depression, anxiety, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder: A within-family Mendelian randomization study

    Amanda M Hughes, Eleanor Sanderson ... Neil M Davies
    It is unclear how much a child's BMI at age 8 affects their depressive and ADHD symptoms after family-level factors are accounted for, but a substantial impact on anxiety symptoms is unlikely.

    Target-agnostic identification of human antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum sexual forms reveals cross-stage recognition of glutamate-rich repeats

    Axelle Amen, Randy Yoo ... Matthijs M Jore
    A naturally acquired human monoclonal antibody recognizes proteins expressed at different stages of the Plasmodium falciparum life cycle through affinity-matured homotypic interactions with glutamate-rich repeats.

    Visualization of stem cell activity in pancreatic cancer expansion by direct lineage tracing with live imaging

    Takahisa Maruno, Akihisa Fukuda ... Hiroshi Seno
    Genetic lineage tracing approach combined with live imaging visualized the functional stem cell activity of Doublecortin-like kinase 1+ cells within pancreatic cancer in vivo.

    Disease consequences of higher adiposity uncoupled from its adverse metabolic effects using Mendelian randomisation

    Susan Martin, Jessica Tyrrell ... Hanieh Yaghootkar
    Using genetics, it is possible to uncouple higher adiposity from its adverse metabolic effects and show that some obesity-associated conditions may benefit from treating the metabolic effects alone, whilst others may benefit more from weight loss.

    A switch in transcription and cell fate governs the onset of an epigenetically-deregulated tumor in Drosophila

    Joana Torres, Remo Monti ... Renato Paro
    A previously unknown oncogenic feature of an embryonic transcription factor was uncovered from transcriptomic analysis of tumors that lack functional Polycomb silencing.

    Dynamics of human protein kinase Aurora A linked to drug selectivity

    Warintra Pitsawong, Vanessa Buosi ... Dorothee Kern
    Slow conformational changes after drug binding rationalize selectivity, affinity and long on-target residence time for kinase inhibitors.
