This study shows that prior respiratory viral infections like SARS-CoV-2 or influenza accelerate lung tumor growth by altering the immune environment and promoting a pro-tumor microenvironment.

This study identifies cell competition as a key driver of gliomagenesis by showing that pre-malignant OPCs outcompete wildtype cells, and inhibiting this process reduces tumor growth.

The paper maps interactions between renin cells and nerve fibers during kidney development and disease using single-cell RNA-Seq and imaging.

This study reveals a synergy between SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD and autophagy in maintaining mitochondrial structure and thermogenic capacity in brown adipocytes.
