Disease-associated microRNA, miR-9-2, regulates timing of retinal progenitor cell competence and maintenance of Müller glial identity

Katelyn Callies, Aarushi Jain, Stella Xu, Emma D. Thomas, Timothy J. Cherry

This study identifies miR-9-2 as a regulator of retinal progenitor cell competence and Müller glial identity, showing its role in timing cell specification and disease risk.

Dual-patterned pluripotent stem cells self-organize into a human embryo model with extended anterior-posterior patterning

Zukai Liu, Chengxiang Qiu, Connor A. Kubo, Stella Xu, Riza M. Daza, Eva K. Nichols, Wei Yang, Anh Vo, Mary B. O’Neill, Choli Lee, Jay Shendure, Nobuhiko Hamazaki

The paper describes a method to generate human embryo-like structures by pre-patterning stem cells and mixing them, resulting in models with extended anterior-posterior organization and neural features.
