This paper presents near-complete, haplotype-resolved assemblies of a pancreatic cancer genome and normal tissue, identifying extensive somatic variants and epigenetic changes in previously excluded regions.

The paper identifies molecular features of tumor-rejecting neoantigens in cSCC and shows how they differ from non-immunogenic neoantigens.

The paper shows JNK and JAK/STAT signaling cooperate to activate damage-responsive enhancers, enabling spatially regulated gene expression for tissue regeneration in Drosophila.

The paper analyzes sex-biased gene expression in rhesus macaque brains to understand its evolutionary and biomedical implications, finding similarities with human patterns and associations with neurodevelopmental disorders.

This study identifies sex-specific gene expression and eQTL differences in hepatocellular carcinoma, revealing distinct molecular mechanisms driving male and female HCC.
