Transplanted human iPSC-derived microglial cells with immune responses and phagocytic abilities integrate and occupy native microglial cell space and functionally respond to retinal injuries.
Alterations of DNA methylation were associated with articular cartilage degeneration in hemophilic arthropathy, and aberrant methylation and expression of TNXB promote blood-induced chondrocyte apoptosis by regulating AKT activation.

Targeted manipulations on organotypic cultures show that the retina switches between at least four different metabolic pathways, each with different yields and kinetics, to dynamically adapt to momentaneous energy needs.

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.

Stem cell-derived retinal organoids are a useful tool to understand the pathobiology of devastating retinal degenerations and can aid to identify and validate therapeutics to promote rescue.
Sensory hair cells in the inner ear use inhibitory G proteins with different regulators at different stages of development to break symmetry, adopt a proper orientation, and grow stereocilia.
