Single cell RNA sequencing reveals mechanisms underlying a senescence-like phenotype of Alveolar Macrophages during Aging

Y. Wu, B. Zhu, R. Zhang, N. P. Goplen, X. Gao, H. Narasimhan, A. Shi, Y. Chen, Y. Li, H. Dong, T. J. Braciale, J. Sun

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to show that aged alveolar macrophages exhibit a senescence-like phenotype linked to reduced CBFβ expression and impaired self-renewal.

Suppression of B-Cell Activation by Human Cord Blood-Derived Stem Cells (CB-SC) through the Galectin-9-Dependent Cell Contact Mechanism

W. Hu, X. Song, H. Yu, S. Fan, A. Shi, J. Sun, H. Wang, L. Zhao, Y. Zhao

This study shows that human cord blood-derived stem cells suppress B-cell activation via a Gal-9-dependent cell contact mechanism and affect calcium levels and signaling pathways.

Lack of Tgfbr1 and Acvr1b synergistically stimulates myofibre hypertrophy and accelerates muscle regeneration

M. Hillege, A. Shi, R. A. Galli, G. Wu, P. Bertolino, W. M. Hoogaars, R. T. Jaspers

This study shows that simultaneous knockout of Tgfbr1 and Acvr1b in muscle leads to hypertrophy and enhanced regeneration, but not when only one receptor is knocked out.
