Colon cancer cells disseminate and colonize distant organ sites along the invasion-metastasis cascade by transiently activating intermediate epithelial to mesenchymal transition states through distinct transcriptional trajectories.
Unbiased single-cell RNAseq data analysis combined with mouse genetic approaches reveal that TGF-β signaling and perimysial-specific regulators may cooperatively define perimysial-to-myogenic signals in regulating pharyngeal myogenesis.

Single nucleus and single cell RNA-seq data uncover novel transcriptomic perspectives in Drosophila testis biology and provide access to user-friendly tools for further scientific discovery in the field.
Using single nucleus RNA sequencing, a complete catalogue of cell types was determined for the mouse iris, and this information was used as a starting point to define the effects of pupil dilation on gene expression and on nuclear morphology.

SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 is expressed in nasal olfactory epithelia, tongue keratinocytes and small intestine enterocytes, connected with the COVID-19 patient phenotypes such as anosmia and diarrhea.

Blastocyst complementation of rat embryos with donor mouse embryonic stem cells was used to simultaneously produce multiple, donor-derived hematopoietic and stromal cells in the interspecies bone marrow that exhibited normal gene expression signatures, cell surface markers, and functional characteristics.
Preventing activity of the kinase tumor progression locus 2 modulates microglial activation, reduces T-cell brain infiltration, and is neuroprotective in disease models.
