Mouse models reveal fundamental roles of SMAD1/5 in mediating both bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathways and the transcriptional response to progesterone during decidualization.
Mendelian randomization and transcriptome-wide association studies delineate the causal relationships and genetic markers between circulating immune cells and periodontitis, pinpointing neutrophils as the predominant contributors.
Measurement of the effect of all single-codon variants of the AAV2 rep gene on recombinant adeno-associated virus production identifies novel beneficial variants, which may facilitate improvement of gene therapy production.
An integrative approach allows investigations of the relationship between an initial plasticity and the subsequent adaptive evolution during rapid adaptive modification of complex systems in the wild.

CCDC146 is a structural component of the flagellum in sperm, located in the doublet microtubules of the axoneme, whose absence leads to multiple morphological anomalies of the flagellum.
Caffeine modulates the genetic risk for cardiovascular disease through changes in target gene expression, likely due to regulation of transcription factor binding.
