    Cell-autonomous timing drives the vertebrate segmentation clock’s wave pattern

    Laurel A Rohde, Arianne Bercowsky-Rama ... Andrew C Oates
    A noisy cell-intrinsic timer provides positional information for the segmentation clock, modulated by extrinsic factors such as FGF.

    A human forebrain organoid model reveals the essential function of GTF2IRD1-TTR-ERK axis for the neurodevelopmental deficits of Williams syndrome

    Xingsen Zhao, Qihang Sun ... Xuekun Li
    Studies with mice and brain organoids models reveals that dysregulation of GTF2IRD1-TTR-ERK pathway significantly contributes to neuronal deficits of Williams syndrome.

    Caspar specifies primordial germ cell count and identity in Drosophila melanogaster

    Subhradip Das, Sushmitha Hegde ... Girish S Ratnaparkhi
    During Drosophila primordial germ cells (PGCs) specification, the centrosome and germplasm are subject to regulation, during the maternal zygotic transition, by Caspar/TER94-dependent degradative pathways that influence PGC determinants.

    Key epigenetic and signaling factors in the formation and maintenance of the blood-brain barrier

    Jayanarayanan Sadanandan, Sithara Thomas ... Peeyush Kumar T
    Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) control endothelial gene expression for BBB development and prevented Wnt/β-catenin target genes from being expressed in adult CNS ECs.

    Marcks and Marcks-like 1 proteins promote spinal cord development and regeneration in Xenopus

    Mohamed El Amri, Abhay Pandit, Gerhard Schlosser
    Marcks and Marcks-like 1 proteins are required for normal neurite formation and proliferation of neuro-glial progenitors during development and regeneration of the Xenopus spinal cord implicating these proteins as critical new factors for spinal cord development and regeneration.

    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.

    Impaired myofibroblast proliferation is a central feature of pathologic post-natal alveolar simplification

    Imran S Khan, Christopher Molina ... Dean Sheppard
    Reduced lung myofibroblast proliferation is a unifying feature in multiple models of developmental emphysema and inhibition of myofibroblast proliferation is sufficient to cause this pathology.

    Molecular, cellular, and developmental organization of the mouse vomeronasal organ at single cell resolution

    Max Henry Hills, Limei Ma ... C Ron Yu
    A transcriptomic atlas of the mouse vomeronasal organ reveals novel receptor co-expression patterns and provides a framework for understanding sensory neuron lineage and receptor specification.

    Complex aneuploidy triggers autophagy and p53-mediated apoptosis and impairs the second lineage segregation in human preimplantation embryos

    Marius Regin, Yingnan Lei ... Claudia Spits
    Aneuploid human embryonic cells are eliminated by p53-mediated apoptosis in a gene dosage dependent manner.
