The paper identifies late embryonic developmental changes in penguin forelimbs that lead to flattened bone morphology and reduced musculature, driven by molecular programs associated with tendon-attachment sites.

TRACCER improves convergence analysis by incorporating topological relationships, identifying significant genetic signals in marine mammal transitions and mammalian longevity.

This study identifies celsr1a as essential for tissue homeostasis and aging onset in zebrafish, showing its role in maintaining progenitor cells and that caloric restriction can mitigate its effects.
