This study shows that vitamin D receptor (VDR) regulates endometrial decidualization by modulating chromatin accessibility and gene expression, with implications for fertility and uterine disorders.

This study investigates ESR1 and estrogen-driven transcription in human endometrial stromal cells using transcriptome, cistrome, and chromatin landscape data to identify gene regulation and its implications in decidualization and endometrial cancer.

The paper shows human-specific variants in HARE5 enhance enhancer activity, promoting progenitor proliferation and contributing to human cortical expansion.

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to compare embryonic development in two sea urchin species, identifying evolutionary changes in cell fate specification and signaling.

The paper analyzes single-cell RNA-seq data from sea urchin development to compare larval and adult body plan formation, identifying regulatory gene differences and cell type changes.

The paper uses scRNA-seq and computational methods to study developmental trajectories and gene regulatory networks in sea urchin embryos, revealing lineage diversification and timing differences between species.
