Significant technical improvement in single-nucleus RNA-seq reveals distinct adipocyte subpopulations that respond differently to obesity, including those undergoing adaptive healthy expansion and others displaying severe dysfunction.
Modulation of dermal adipocytes contributes to skin homeostasis and provides a promising new therapeutic strategy in the treatment of EGFRI-related skin disorders.
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells have some shared yet some distinct metabolic and transcriptional programs for their in vivo effector functions, including a novel population of memory-like regulatory iNKT cells.

In the torpid hibernator, when transcription is inhibited, enhanced stability and polyadenylation explain increased abundance of crucial transcripts required for intense non-shivering thermogenesis during arousal.
Identification of bone marrow Adipoq-lineage progenitors as a novel and major cellular source of M-CSF in mice and humans, which controls bone marrow macrophage development, osteoclastogenesis, and bone mass in physiological and pathological conditions.
