    Comprehensive characterization of tumor microenvironment in colorectal cancer via molecular analysis

    Xiangkun Wu, Hong Yan ... Li Liang
    Integrated molecular analysis demonstrated that colorectal cancer can be classified into four molecular subtypes (proliferative, immunomodulatory, immunosuppressed, and immune-excluded subtypes), providing valuable insight into the intricate relationship between tumor microenvironment heterogeneity and various clinical phenotypes.

    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.

    Noncovalent antibody catenation on a target surface greatly increases the antigen-binding avidity

    Jinyeop Song, Bo-Seong Jeong ... Byung-Ha Oh
    Genetically fusing weakly homodimerizing proteins to the C-terminus of IgG antibodies to induce reversible catenation on a target surface greatly enhances antigen-binding avidity, offering a promising approach for a range of antibody applications.

    Predictive nonlinear modeling of malignant myelopoiesis and tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy

    Jonathan Rodriguez, Abdon Iniguez ... Richard A Van Etten
    A physiological mathematical model of chronic myeloid leukemia, validated by experiments in transgenic mice and clinical data, identifies mechanisms underlying the response to tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy, predicts biomarkers of primary resistance, and suggests new strategies to improve treatment outcomes.

    Sex, strain, and lateral differences in brain cytoarchitecture across a large mouse population

    David Elkind, Hannah Hochgerner ... Amit Zeisel
    Across individuals of a mouse population, brain regions volumes scaled to accommodate the same amount of cells, but left hemisphere cortical regions were denser than right, and several regions of the limbic system were more pronounced in either sex.

    Statistical inference reveals the role of length, GC content, and local sequence in V(D)J nucleotide trimming

    Magdalena L Russell, Noah Simon ... Frederick A Matsen IV
    Local sequence context, length, and GC nucleotide content in both directions of the trimming site, together, are highly predictive of V(D)J trimming probabilities for both TR and IG adaptive immune receptor loci.

    Dynamic fibronectin assembly and remodeling by leader neural crest cells prevents jamming in collective cell migration

    William Duncan Martinson, Rebecca McLennan ... Philip K Maini
    Data-driven mathematical modeling suggests that leading neural crest cells in a moving stream can robustly communicate with trailing cells by remodeling their extracellular matrix, thereby enabling long-distance collective migration.

    Coevolutionary dynamics via adaptive feedback in collective-risk social dilemma game

    Linjie Liu, Xiaojie Chen, Attila Szolnoki
    The two-way coupling between collective actions and risk is essential to avoid the tragedy of the commons.

    Transcriptional regulation of Sis1 promotes fitness but not feedback in the heat shock response

    Rania Garde, Abhyudai Singh ... David Pincus
    The chaperones Hsp70 and Sis1 collaborate to repress the heat shock response and are both transcriptional targets of the heat shock response, yet only Hsp70 acts as a negative feedback regulator of the heat shock response.
