This study shows that Pcdh9 deletion in mice causes synaptic overgrowth and excitatory transmission defects in the hippocampus, revealing its role in synaptic morphology and function.

The paper identifies hemogenic endothelium in vitelline and umbilical arteries as a major source of fetal lympho-myeloid progenitors in mice, showing their transient contribution before definitive HSCs emerge.

The paper shows that SET levels influence enhancer usage during cell fate acquisition, leading to altered gene regulation and contributing to disease.

This study identifies low-frequency mutations in SARS-CoV-2 deep sequencing data to detect variants earlier than consensus-based methods, using 220,788 samples.
