    Free-living human cells reconfigure their chromosomes in the evolution back to uni-cellularity

    Jin Xu, Xinxin Peng ... Chung-I Wu
    Human cell lines regress to become ‘de-sexualized’ by reconfiguring to a 2:3 X/A ratio of high fitness, thus shedding light on the evolution of mammalian sex chromosomes.

    Integrative analysis of DNA replication origins and ORC-/MCM-binding sites in human cells reveals a lack of overlap

    Mengxue Tian, Zhenjia Wang ... Chongzhi Zang
    The ~20,000 origins of replication in human cell lines that are reproducibly identified by multiple techniques in multiple cell lines are distant from known origin recognition complex and MCM2-7-binding sites.

    Loss of full-length dystrophin expression results in major cell-autonomous abnormalities in proliferating myoblasts

    Maxime RF Gosselin, Virginie Mournetas ... Dariusz C Gorecki
    Loss of full-length dystrophin expression causes significant molecular and functional defects in human and mouse myoblast, thus closing the vicious cycle of DMD pathology.

    Combined ALK and MDM2 inhibition increases antitumor activity and overcomes resistance in human ALK mutant neuroblastoma cell lines and xenograft models

    Hui Qin Wang, Ensar Halilovic ... Fang Li
    The combination of ceritinib with CGM097 demonstrates remarkable antitumor activity in TP53 wild-type neuroblastoma models with ALK aberrations and is able to overcome the resistance acquired during ceritinib treatment.

    SOX4 facilitates PGR protein stability and FOXO1 expression conducive for human endometrial decidualization

    Pinxiu Huang, Wenbo Deng ... Shuangbo Kong
    A biochemical approach shows that SOX4 guaranteed the PGR protein stability through repressing the ubiquitin E3 ligase HERC4, to make the stroma cell conducive for response to progesterone and decidualization.

    Applying causal discovery to single-cell analyses using CausalCell

    Yujian Wen, Jielong Huang ... Hao Zhu
    Based on benchmarking various methods and analyzing multiple real scRNA-seq datasets, a computational platform/workflow and a set of tips for best practices are developed for analyzing causal interactions or relationships in single cells.

    ZMYM2 controls human transposable element transcription through distinct co-regulatory complexes

    Danielle J Owen, Elisa Aguilar-Martinez ... Andrew D Sharrocks
    The transcriptional regulator ZMYM2 homes to distinct classes of retrotransposons bound by the TRIM28 and ChAHP chromatin complexes in human cells, which is broadly relevant in the transcriptional regulation field.

    HOXA9 promotes MYC-mediated leukemogenesis by maintaining gene expression for multiple anti-apoptotic pathways

    Ryo Miyamoto, Akinori Kanai ... Akihiko Yokoyama
    HOXA9 is a transcriptional maintenance factor for anti-apoptotic genes that accelerate MYC-driven leukemia.

    Loss of MGA repression mediated by an atypical polycomb complex promotes tumor progression and invasiveness

    Haritha Mathsyaraja, Jonathen Catchpole ... Robert N Eisenman
    The MYC transcription factor network member MGA is a subunit of a non-canonical Polycomb complex, which, when inactivated, accelerates tumorigenesis in mouse models of cancer and proliferation in colon organoids.

    Two subunits of human ORC are dispensable for DNA replication and proliferation

    Etsuko Shibata, Manjari Kiran ... Anindya Dutta
    Human cell lines replicate and proliferate without ORC1 or ORC2, two subunits of the replication initiator protein complex ORC, which has till now been considered essential for DNA replication.
