This paper derives a metabolic cost-based model for optimal vascular tree shear stress profiles and shows how staged growth and fluctuating demand influence vascular topology.

This study shows that retrotransposon expression increases with age in axolotls but decreases during limb regeneration, suggesting a role in age-related regenerative decline.

The paper analyzes genomic profiles of Mexican Testicular Germ Cell Tumor patients to identify biomarkers of platinum sensitivity, finding that CNV amplification of 2q11.1 may indicate chemosensitivity.

This study shows that combining oncogenes with lineage reprogramming can transform human cells into tumorigenic liver-like cells.

The paper shows that cis-regulatory variation modifies the penetrance of coding variants, affecting disease risk in cancer and autism, and demonstrates this through experimental validation.
