The lncRNA landscapes in human germ cells are comprehensively profiled and the functional role of an lncRNA LNC1845 in regulating gene expression of a neighboring coding gene LHX8 is elucidated.

Single-cell transcriptomic analysis defines hair cell and supporting cell types in the zebrafish inner ear, and reveals homologies with cells in the mammalian ear.

Trisomy 21, the genetic cause of Down syndrome, produces elevated centrosome protein levels reducing intracellular trafficking to and from the centrosome thereby delaying primary ciliogenesis, ciliary signaling, and mouse cerebellar development.

Biochemical and genetic approaches reveal how the focal adhesion protein kindlin-2 controls the liver development and homeostasis by reducing inflammation.

Eprhin B1 in the cardiomyocyte regulates the maturation of the adult surface crest architecture and of the diastolic function during a late postnatal stage in rodents.

A muscle-derived Wnt signal promotes dendritic branching of somatosensory neurons in response to a concurrent deficiency in vitamins, minerals, and cholesterol.

Single-cell transcriptomics correlated with in situ gene expression analysis provide an overview of the diversity and molecular features of cell types in the squid Loligo vulgaris.

Urp1 and Urp2 peptides, expressed in CSF-contacting neurons in the spinal canal, prevent abnormal curvature of the zebrafish spine.

The nearly universal nature of scaled cell shape variability in an epithelial monolayer is unavoidable, irrespective of health or disease, as it comes from a mathematical property.

Infants' vocalisations are contingent on their own stress physiology, and alter the inter-personal dynamics of how stress states are shared across the infant-caregiver dyad.
