Decoding the RNA Splicing Network in HNRNPH2-R114W Brain Organoids

Carlo Donato Caiaffa, Neda Ghousifam, Stephen Watkins…·Robert M. Cabrera

This study investigates the impact of the HNRNPH2-R114W mutation on RNA splicing in human brain organoids, identifying junction-level dysregulation and potential therapeutic targets.

Disruption of Fuz in mouse embryos generates hypoplastic hindbrain development and reduced cranial nerve ganglia.

Carlo Donato Caiaffa, Yogeshwari Sanjayrao Ambekar, Manmohan Singh…·Richard H. Finnell

This paper shows that disrupting Fuz in mouse embryos causes hypoplastic hindbrain development and reduced cranial nerve ganglia due to defective cilia formation and impaired Sonic Hedgehog signaling.

Aberrant tissue stiffness impairs neural tube development in Mthfd1l mutant mouse embryos

Yogeshwari Sanjayrao Ambekar, Carlo Donato Caiaffa, Bogdan J. Wlodarczyk…·Kirill V. Larin

The paper investigates how reduced tissue stiffness in Mthfd1l mutant mouse embryos impairs neural tube closure and shows that formate supplementation can restore stiffness and morphology.
