The paper shows that neuropeptide tachykinin and Wnt signaling regulate cardiomyocyte progenitor proliferation in Ciona robusta, with neuronal innervation playing a key role.

This paper introduces a mannitol-based buffer (PBS-M) that improves scRNA-seq quality for high-salt marine cells, revealing previously undetected cell states.

The paper constructs a single-cell transcriptomic atlas of Botryllus schlosseri budding, identifying dedifferentiating founder cells that drive asexual development.

This study identifies immune cell types in the basal chordate Ciona robusta using single-cell RNA sequencing and finds divergence from vertebrate immune cells.
