This study identifies HIF2-driven PTHrP as a cause of cachexia and hypercalcemia in kidney cancer and shows that HIF2 inhibitors can alleviate these symptoms.

GBoost-CTL improves multi-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies by integrating GWAS data and weighting tissues based on predictive accuracy and GWAS signal.

TWAS-CTL improves multi-tissue TWAS by combining single-tissue learners, achieving higher power and efficiency than existing methods.

This paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly of maize inbred line A188 and identifies structural variations and gene expression differences compared to the reference line B73.

HB-PLS identifies pathway regulators by integrating Huber loss and Berhu penalty with PLS, outperforming existing methods in efficiency and distinct regulator identification.

This study introduces KAD, a method to estimate base errors and assess genome assembly quality by comparing k-mer abundance from short reads and assembled sequences.
