Adult mouse fibroblasts maintain an embryonic gene expression signature, inherited from their organ of origin, that is important for organ homeostasis and fibrosis, and may assist in targeting fibrotic diseases in an organ-specific manner.
BADGERS, as a new powerful method for conducting polygenic score-based biobank-wide association scans, identified 48 significant associations for AD and 41 significant associations for a variety of AD endophenotypes.
A novel signaling system in heart mitochondria in which the byproduct of energy metabolism, CO2/bicarbonate, acts as the primary signal to tune mitochondrial ATP production while keeping energy supply in tight synchronization with energy consumption.

The HOXB13 binding partner MEIS1 suppresses prostate cancer proliferation, invasion, and metastasis by promoting expression of the anti-oncogenic extracellular proteoglycan Decorin.
Whereas SARS-CoV-2 utilizes cathepsins to enter most cell lines, human airway organoids revealed that entry into relevant cells is dependent on serine proteases, which can be targeted for treatment.
Meiosis and differentiation of basidium, a defining sexual structure of the phylum Basidiomycota, are genetically integrated by a shared regulatory program to ensure the formation of infectious meiospores in Cryptococcus neoformans.
