Benchmarking Cell Type and Gene Set Annotation by Large Language Models with AnnDictionary

The paper benchmarks large language models for cell-type and gene set annotation using AnnDictionary, finding high accuracy in cell-type annotation and strong functional gene set recovery.

Durable reconstitution of sinonasal epithelium by transplant of CFTR gene corrected airway stem cells

This study demonstrates that gene-corrected human airway stem cells can durably engraft and restore CFTR function in murine respiratory epithelium, offering a potential therapy for cystic fibrosis.

Adversarial domain translation networks for fast and accurate integration of large-scale atlas-level single-cell datasets

Portal integrates large-scale single-cell datasets efficiently and accurately by preserving biological variation across samples, platforms, and species.

The Tabula Sapiens: a multiple organ single cell transcriptomic atlas of humans

Nearly 500,000 cells from 24 human tissues, many from one donor, characterize over 400 cell types and enable within-donor study of T-cell clones, B-cell mutation rates and splicing.

Molecular hallmarks of heterochronic parabiosis at single cell resolution

This study uses single-cell RNA-sequencing to analyze cell type-specific responses to young or aged blood in heterochronic parabiosis, identifying mitochondrial function as a key factor in rejuvenation.
