This study identifies the developmental origin and regulation of best4+ intestinal cells in zebrafish and demonstrates their functional roles and limitations.

The paper presents a chromosome-level genome assembly and functional genomic resources for Capitella teleta, improving upon an outdated reference and enabling better analysis of multi-omic data.

This study identifies and characterizes specialized endothelial cells in zebrafish gills that resemble mammalian lung aerocytes, using single-cell RNA sequencing and advanced imaging techniques.

This study shows prdm1a drives a fate switch between zebrafish lateral line and ear hair cells, altering morphology and transcriptome.

This paper characterizes the zebrafish meninges using single-cell transcriptomics, identifying a novel cell type essential for brain development.

A 489,686-cell scRNA-seq atlas of 62 zebrafish stages (3.3–120 hpf) identifies 90 multi-tissue gene programs and markers for pericyte subtypes, intestinal smooth muscle layers, and best4+ enterocytes.

This study investigates the role of BMP signaling in early development of the annelid Capitella teleta, identifying three key time windows of BMP activity and suggesting it may have functioned in patterning ectodermal fates along the D-V axis in the last common ancestor of annelids.

The paper uses single-cell RNAseq to identify cell types and differentiation trajectories in Capitella teleta, revealing novel neurosecretory cell markers and neural differentiation paths.
