The paper identifies widespread cryptic RAG-mediated recombination events in mouse thymocytes beyond known antigen receptor loci, showing these events are not explained by local genetic or epigenetic features.

The paper identifies miR-122-5p and miR-1247 as regulators of Th17 and Th1 cell functions in autoimmune inflammation, affecting EAE severity.

The paper shows that optimistic and pessimistic cognitive biases in zebrafish affect stress reactivity and cancer progression, with optimists showing lower tumorigenesis.

The paper identifies the rare DRB1*04:08-DQ8 haplotype as a major genetic driver of Early-Onset Type 1 Diabetes in the Portuguese population.

The paper identifies a conserved genetic program in male germ cells across species, revealing 161 new spermatogenesis genes and three potential causes of human infertility.

The paper identifies a TgfβRI/Snai1-dependent developmental module that drives vertebrate axial elongation through a distinct EMT process in the tail bud.
