This study identifies age-associated repression of HNF4α as a driver of liver metabolic dysfunction and shows that restoring HNF4α can reverse some age-related liver defects.

This paper introduces a measure of transcriptional dyscoordination to quantify aging in single cells, showing it increases with age and is linked to cellular processes like senescence and genome instability.

This study identifies SAA1-TLR4 signaling as a tumor-derived pathway driving muscle wasting in pancreatic cancer, showing that targeting this pathway can preserve muscle mass and improve survival without affecting tumor growth.

This study shows that targeting CCND1-CDK6 reduces DNA damage, inflammation, and age-related decline in mice by suppressing SASP and ISG expression.

This study shows that aging-induced CD44 in hepatocytes activates the IL6/JAK/STAT3 pathway, leading to impaired T cell function in the liver.

This study shows that cellular senescence disrupts liver zonation and hepatocyte function with age by altering gene expression and cell signaling.

This paper identifies a strategy combining NAMPT activation and NAM supplementation to target NAD+ dysregulation and senescent cells, promoting healthy aging in mice.

CHASM detects chromosomal copy number alterations in single-cell data, revealing age-related genomic instability in specific cell types and states.

The paper identifies a widespread transcript leakage issue in spatial transcriptomics and introduces DeLeakage, a Bayesian method that improves data cleaning and cell-type annotation.

The paper identifies two distinct senescent β-cell subpopulations with different functional roles in islet aging and dysfunction using single-cell proteomics and transcriptomics.

This study shows that Runx1 and Runx2 suppress Wnt/β-catenin-driven mammary tumourigenesis, with combined loss leading to increased tumour development and oncogenic pathway activation.

This study shows that a H2A.Z mutant reduces the senescence-associated secretory phenotype in human fibroblasts without affecting cell cycle genes.

This study shows that HIRA-mediated H3.3 deposition maintains hepatocyte identity during aging, and its loss leads to metabolic dysfunction and fibrosis, which can be partially reversed by tissue regeneration.

This study shows ONC206 effectively kills medulloblastoma cells and extends survival in mouse models, supporting its potential as a new treatment for high-risk medulloblastoma.

This study shows that rapamycin reduces age-related liver damage caused by a high-fat diet in mice by reversing transcriptional changes and metabolic dysfunction.

This study shows that increasing ACSS2 levels protects neurons from age-related and tau-induced decline by enhancing synaptic and longevity gene expression.

The paper describes an automated workflow for high-throughput plasmid DNA preparation and quantification using a robotic workstation, achieving high yields and quality with minimal human intervention.

This study shows senescent cells release chromatin components via extracellular particles, activating inflammation in neighboring cells and being present in aged mice.

This study shows that aging reduces T cell recruitment in breast cancer by decreasing Cxcl9/Cxcl10 expression in tumor cells, leading to weakened anti-tumor immunity.

This paper introduces a framework that guides dimensionality reduction using knowledge-derived genes to recover rare but important signals in single-cell data, demonstrating its effectiveness in identifying rare cell subtypes.

The paper shows that reduced nucleosome stability impairs cell identity, stress resilience, and healthy aging across species.

This study identifies CD155 as a key regulator of tumor growth and immune evasion in diffuse midline glioma, showing that targeting CD155 or its downstream target FOXM1 can inhibit tumor progression.

This study shows that inactivating HIRA during embryonic development affects melanoblasts and leads to aging-related defects in melanocyte stem cells, but not in postnatal melanocytes.

This study shows that aging alters macrophage phenotypes in the melanoma microenvironment, with TREM1 and TREM2 playing distinct roles in tumor progression and metastasis in aged mice.

This study shows that aged livers have heightened interferon signaling that suppresses cancer but also has harmful effects, leading to a 'precarious balance' in tumor development.

PROTGOAT improves protein function prediction using an ensemble of pre-trained protein language models, achieving high performance in CAFA 5 benchmark.

The paper investigates how enhancer interactomes reconfigure during senescence and aging, identifying hyper-connected enhancer communities linked to gene expression and potential therapeutic targets.
