    The splicing regulator PTBP2 controls a program of embryonic splicing required for neuronal maturation

    Qin Li, Sika Zheng ... Douglas L Black
    PTBP2 ensures that adult protein variants are expressed only in mature neurons through regulation of alternative splicing during early neuronal development.

    Integrative analysis of scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq revealed transit-amplifying thymic epithelial cells expressing autoimmune regulator

    Takahisa Miyao, Maki Miyauchi ... Taishin Akiyama
    The combination of single-cell analysis and cell fate mapping studies evidenced the presence of AIRE-expressing transit-amplifying thymic epithelial cells, which differentiate into mature medullary thymic epithelial cells expressing tissue-specific antigens.

    Unbiased identification of novel transcription factors in striatal compartmentation and striosome maturation

    Maria-Daniela Cirnaru, Sicheng Song ... Michelle E Ehrlich
    RNAseq and ATACseq are utilized to identify transcription factors participating in striatal compartmentation into striosome and matrix, and roles for Stat1, Olig2, and Foxf2 are validated in vitro and in vivo.

    Lung Development: Exploring a complex constellation of signaling pathways

    Nathaniel C Nelson, Matthias C Kugler
    Cells called alveolar myofibroblasts, which have a central role in the development of the lung after birth, receive an orchestrated input from a range of different signaling pathways.

    Chloride channels regulate differentiation and barrier functions of the mammalian airway

    Mu He, Bing Wu ... Lily Yeh Jan
    The chloride channel Ano1/Tmem16a plays an essential and non-redundant role in the developing airway by inhibiting mucus cell hyperplasia and promoting proper immune function of the airway mucosal barrier.

    Extensive alternative splicing transitions during postnatal skeletal muscle development are required for calcium handling functions

    Amy E Brinegar, Zheng Xia ... Thomas A Cooper
    Global transcriptome changes, particularly alternative splicing, are highly dynamic the first 2 weeks after birth, and the example of calcineurin A splicing exemplifies the importance of alternative splicing during skeletal muscle development.

    Distinct and separable roles for EZH2 in neurogenic astroglia

    William W Hwang, Ryan D Salinas ... Daniel A Lim
    A number of genes associated with the development of brain tumors are epigenetically repressed in specialized astrocytes to enable the production of neurons in the postnatal brain.
