The paper presents the chromosome-scale assembly of the giant Pleurodeles waltl genome, revealing insights into its expansion and regeneration-related genes.

This study shows that macrophages are essential for lens regeneration in newts by reducing fibrosis, modulating inflammation, and balancing cell proliferation and apoptosis.

This study validates SNP-based demultiplexing for pooled scRNA-seq data across multiple non-human species, showing accurate demultiplexing with only transcriptome data and no prior genetic reference.

This study identifies cell type innovations in salamander forebrain evolution, showing similarities to both sauropsid DVR and mammalian neocortex.
