The paper identifies novel neonatal CD8β+ T cell subsets (FITs) with innate-like features, distinct from conventional and unconventional T cells, using cord blood samples.

This study compares neonatal and adult CD8+ recent thymic emigrants using single-cell multiomics, finding distinct phenotypes and functions despite similar post-thymic maturation.

This study shows that reducing Wapl dosage partially corrects transcriptome and growth defects in Nipbl-/+ embryonic mouse brains, suggesting cohesin dynamics regulate gene expression.

The paper shows that maternal loss of imprinting at the H19/IGF2 locus causes cardiac pathologies in mice, with Igf2 driving transient hypertrophy and H19 causing progressive fibrosis and reduced ventricular function.
