Parthenogenote-Derived Brain Unveils the Critical Role of Paternal Genome in Neural Development

Marina Takechi, Yezhang Zhu, Zezhen Lu…·Shinpei Yamaguchi

This study uses a novel cell replacement strategy to show that the paternal genome is critical for neural development through Dlk1-mediated regulation of Notch signaling.

Spatial transcriptomic landscape of the Ciona adult brain: functional zonalisation and cellular composition in a sessile chordate brain and a novel insight into neural gland function

Xin Zeng, Fuki Gyoja, Ayana Maruo…·Takehiro G. Kusakabe

This study generates the first spatial transcriptomic atlas of the adult Ciona neural complex, revealing molecular zonation and functional roles of key regions like the neural gland.
