This study shows that estrogen receptor-alpha signaling in T cells increases Th17-mediated airway inflammation in obese female mice and that Th17 cells are more frequent in women with asthma compared to men.

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to study how wheeze and early-life RSV infection affect airway epithelial development in children.

This study shows that MLL3/MLL4 methyltransferase activities are essential for early embryonic development and stem cell differentiation, but their role is lineage-selective and not dependent on enhancer activation.

This study shows BAF and MLL4 work together to activate cell type-specific enhancers during adipogenesis, with BAF being essential for differentiation while PBAF is not.
