The paper identifies differences in liver and lung metastatic niches in breast cancer, showing liver promotes metastasis while lungs inhibit it, and highlights BMP2-producing endothelial cells in the liver as key players.

This study identifies Safb1 as a regulator of neuron production in adult hippocampal neural stem cells by enhancing Drosha-mediated cleavage of NFIB mRNA, preventing glial differentiation.

The paper investigates the role of the protooncogene Ski in regulating the neuron-glia switch during mammalian cerebral cortex development and identifies its interaction with the BMP signaling pathway.

The paper maps transcriptional dynamics in murine cortical development, identifying lineage shifts and gene regulatory networks in neural stem cells, basal progenitors, and newborn neurons.

The paper introduces DeePhys, a tool for functional phenotyping of neurons using electrophysiological data, and shows it can predict genotype and age in iPSC-derived DA neurons with the A53T SNCA mutation.

This study identifies Notch2 and Id4 as regulators of neural stem cell quiescence in the adult hippocampus, showing their role in maintaining dormancy and affecting neurogenesis.

The paper introduces a microfluidic system for high-throughput cell culture and analysis, revealing signaling rules in neural stem cell differentiation.
