In this important study, the authors used a zebrafish model and scRNAseq analysis to show that a subset of keratinocytes within melanoma microenvironment highly up-regulate Twist and undergo ...

This useful study reports that the exogenous expression of the microRNA miR-195 can partially compensate in early B cell development for the loss of EBF1, one of the key transcription factors in B ...

The advent of large-scale sequencing in both development and disease has identified large numbers of candidate genes that may be linked to important phenotypes. Validating the function of these ...

This important study shows that sound exposure enhances drug delivery to the cochlea via outer hair cell electromotility acting as a "fluid pump". Although others have proposed that electromotility ...

The fusion of two genes on chromosome 12 – NAB2 and STAT6 – has been found in a rare form of cancer, known as a solitary fibrous tumor, which can form in almost any part of the body ( Thway et al., ...

This is an important piece of work that sheds light on our understanding of early lung development. There is solid evidence that there is a key new role for Svep1, which may be acting via FGF9. A more ...
