The paper identifies the Pgb1 locus as controlling glycogen aggregation in aged hippocampal astrocytes without affecting cognitive function.

The paper introduces scCoExpNets and CovCoExpNets to analyze cell-type specific gene co-expression networks from single-cell RNA-seq data, identifying iron accumulation as a factor in dopaminergic neuron vulnerability in Parkinson's disease.

PhenoExam is an R package and web tool that performs phenotype and disease enrichment analysis on gene sets, detecting significant phenotypic similarities and differences across databases.

The paper introduces GMSCA, a tool to enhance gene multifunctionality predictions in bulk-tissue co-expression networks, revealing new roles for genes like SNCA in oligodendrocytes.
