The paper presents a high-quality crabeater seal reference genome and shows it has high genetic diversity, low inbreeding, and a history of population expansion.

This study identifies the secretome of cardiac fibroblasts in healthy and infarcted mouse hearts, revealing dynamic paracrine factors and potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets.

The paper investigates how host genetics shape microbiome composition across generations, finding that host genotype has a stronger influence than maternal legacy after the first generation.

The paper completes six MHC haplotypes, including DR1, DR4, and structurally variable C4 regions, improving reference panels for immunogenomics analysis.
