This study shows that rTMS targeting the motor cortex in a non-human primate model of Rett syndrome improves behavioral outcomes and induces cell-type-specific transcriptional changes.

This study identifies IgG accumulation in dystrophin-deficient muscle as a driver of DMD progression and shows that B cell depletion reduces it, offering a potential therapeutic strategy.

This study establishes co-cultures of embryonic and extraembryonic stem cells to study lineage crosstalk during early mammalian development, revealing growth inhibition of pluripotent cells by extraembryonic endoderm cells.

The paper analyzes single-nucleus data from the human hippocampus across different ages and injury states to study NSC heterogeneity and dynamics, identifying new markers and revealing quiescence patterns.

The paper creates a cell atlas of early human peri-implantation lineages and develops an embryo-like assembloid to study lineage development and signaling mechanisms.

The paper identifies ISL1's critical role in primate mesoderm formation through a transcriptional atlas and CRISPR experiments in non-human primates.

The paper integrates single-cell ATAC and transcriptomic data with spatial transcriptomics to map regulatory features and disease vulnerabilities in macaque cortex.
