The paper develops a toolkit of membrane-localising tags tested across ten animal species to identify effective signals for targeting proteins to the plasma membrane.

The paper tracks karyotype dynamics in Macrostomum lignano using flow cytometry, showing spontaneous de novo chromosome duplications in lab cultures and proposing a method to control karyotypes.

This study shows that disrupting a regulatory element in the CEBPA gene of African turquoise killifish increases lifespan and healthspan by enhancing full-length C/EBP isoform activity.

This study characterizes tertiary lymphoid structures in endometrial cancer using multi-level transcriptomics, identifying transcriptional signatures and immune cell dynamics linked to ICI response.

The paper introduces OneSABER, a unified open platform for RNA in situ hybridization using SABER probes, demonstrating its application in flatworm regeneration studies.

The paper shows that heat stress increases LTR retrotransposon transcription in Macrostomum lignano by hijacking the heat shock response pathway, a mechanism previously known in plants.

This paper optimizes RNA interference protocols in Macrostomum lignano by demonstrating that single soaking in dsRNA solution is sufficient for effective gene knockdown, reducing time and cost.

The paper assembles and annotates the genome of Symsagittifera roscoffensis to study its phylogenetic position and molecular mechanisms of symbiosis.

The paper uses spatial transcriptomics to identify novel fertility genes in C. elegans by analyzing gene expression patterns in males and hermaphrodites.

The paper re-analyzes germline transcriptional signatures in M. lignano and identifies a novel flatworm-specific gene family essential for sperm production.

This paper presents a transcriptomic analysis of the demosponge Halisarca caerulea, identifying Wnt pathways and other genes involved in regeneration and providing a reference transcriptome for future studies.
