    Environmentally sensitive hotspots in the methylome of the early human embryo

    Matt J Silver, Ayden Saffari ... Andrew M Prentice
    259 CpGs associated with season of conception in rural Gambians constitute a valuable resource for investigating epigenetic mechanisms linking early exposures to lifelong health and disease.

    Coronary blood vessels from distinct origins converge to equivalent states during mouse and human development

    Ragini Phansalkar, Josephine Krieger ... Kristy Red-Horse
    Endothelial cells from separate cardiac lineages start off in distinct transcriptional states, but over the course of development converge into transcriptional and functional states which are unrelated to lineage and which are conserved between mouse and human.

    The role of B cells in immune cell activation in polycystic ovary syndrome

    Angelo Ascani, Sara Torstensson ... Elisabet Stener-Victorin
    Androgen receptor activation modifies B cell frequencies and functionality, accompanied by weight gain in female mice exposed to human PCOS IgG, highlighting the unrecognized involvement of B cells in PCOS autoimmune comorbidities despite their absence not preventing PCOS phenotype development.

    Increasing heart vascularisation after myocardial infarction using brain natriuretic peptide stimulation of endothelial and WT1+ epicardial cells

    Na Li, Stephanie Rignault-Clerc ... Nathalie Rosenblatt-Velin
    Brain natriuretic peptide supplementation can increase cardiac neovascularization in infarcted hearts by stimulating endogenous endothelial cell proliferation and proliferation of precursor cells, which will differentiate into endothelial cells.

    Evolutionary transcriptomics implicates new genes and pathways in human pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes

    Katelyn Mika, Mirna Marinić ... Vincent J Lynch
    Comparative studies of gene expression in the uterus during pregnancy identifies new genes important for pregnancy and associated with complications such as preterm birth.

    A regeneration-triggered metabolic adaptation is necessary for cell identity transitions and cell cycle re-entry to support blastema formation and bone regeneration

    Ana S Brandão, Jorge Borbinha ... Antonio Jacinto
    Zebrafish caudal fin amputation induces an increase in the glycolytic influx that leads to dedifferentiation of osteoblasts and their re-entry in the cell cycle, which is essential for blastema formation and bone regeneration.

    Extracellular matrix-inducing Sox9 promotes both basal progenitor proliferation and gliogenesis in developing neocortex

    Ayse Güven, Nereo Kalebic ... Wieland B Huttner
    Transcription factor Sox9 has an important role in neocortex expansion, where its expression in basal progenitors increases proliferation, induces premature gliogenesis and promotes the expression of extracellular matrix components.

    Activation of individual L1 retrotransposon instances is restricted to cell-type dependent permissive loci

    Claude Philippe, Dulce B Vargas-Landin ... Gaël Cristofari
    The expression of human L1 retrotransposons is highly locus-specific and variable between different cell types.

    Bid maintains mitochondrial cristae structure and function and protects against cardiac disease in an integrative genomics study

    Christi T Salisbury-Ruf, Clinton C Bertram ... Sandra S Zinkel
    An integrative approach, combining genetic mouse and large-scale human genetics studies, was used to reveal a novel role for the Bcl-2 protein Bid in maintenance of mitochondrial function that alters susceptibility to myocardial infarction.
