The paper benchmarks large language models for cell-type and gene set annotation using AnnDictionary, finding high accuracy in cell-type annotation and strong functional gene set recovery.

This study compares human and mouse ovarian biology across age using 3D-imaging, single-cell transcriptomics, and functional studies, identifying species-specific and age-related changes in follicle dynamics and gene expression.

This study shows that muscarinic agonists can restore non-healing salivary glands by reactivating endogenous regeneration and mitochondrial function through cholinergic-calcium signaling.

The paper shows that some oocytes from the first juvenile wave pause growth and later resume, contributing to fertility beyond puberty.

The paper generates melanocytes from hPSCs through two distinct developmental trajectories and identifies T2-specific factors that promote melanoma metastasis.

This study uses caudalized human pluripotent stem cell organoids to model neural tube axial elongation, showing gene expression patterns and morphological features similar to development.

The paper identifies the origins of salivary proteins and reveals gene repertoires specific to fetal and adult salivary glands, showing functional diversity is driven by transcriptional regulators.

This study shows that two distinct progenitor populations in salivary glands maintain ductal architecture after radiation damage through different mechanisms.
