This study shows that deleting Llgl1 in cardiomyocytes disrupts intercalated disc integrity, causes electrical conduction defects, and allows cell cycle activity into adulthood, while improving cardiac function after injury.

The paper identifies basophil recruitment to the spleen following TBI and shows their activation of B cells and dendritic cells via IL-13 signaling, enhancing protein translation through NORAD.

The paper develops an algorithm to correct cell-type composition in bulk RNAseq data, revealing novel gene pathways in post-myocardial infarction cardiac remodeling.

The paper investigates the physiological role and mechanisms of a noncoding haplotype associated with blood pressure by combining animal models, genome editing, and chromatin analysis.

This study examines cardiomyocyte ploidy dynamics in two mouse strains, revealing differences in developmental progression and identifying new roles for Runx1 and Tnni3k in ploidy regulation.

The paper identifies IL-13 and its receptor as neuronal synaptic proteins that enhance synaptic activity and neuroprotection in response to injury.
