This study shows that Snai1 is not essential for somitogenesis, as its absence in the presomitic mesoderm does not disrupt segmentation clock activity or somite formation.

This study shows that BVRA's catalytic activity is essential for malaria resistance and identifies a bilirubin concentration threshold needed for protection.

This study shows that monocyte-derived macrophages regulate energy homeostasis by responding to iron metabolism dysregulation in parenchyma cells.

The paper shows that Tgfbr1 regulates developmental plasticity between hindlimb and external genitalia by modulating regulatory element accessibility in mice.

This study identifies regulatory changes during the head to trunk transition in mouse embryos through transcriptome and chromatin accessibility analyses.

The paper investigates the role of Myf5 and Lbx1 in turtle carapace development by recreating their unique expression patterns in mouse embryos and observing developmental outcomes.

The paper identifies a conserved genetic program in male germ cells across species, revealing 161 new spermatogenesis genes and three potential causes of human infertility.

The paper identifies a TgfβRI/Snai1-dependent developmental module that drives vertebrate axial elongation through a distinct EMT process in the tail bud.
