This study identifies de novo genes in crickets that originate from repetitive DNA, showing that such sequences are more common in older genes than in recent insertions.

The paper investigates molecular mechanisms of maternal-induced embryonic diapause in crickets using genome assembly and time-series transcriptomic analyses, revealing epigenetic and metabolic changes.

The paper identifies osteopontin (OPN) upregulation as a conserved molecular signature of the pre-rupture state in thoracic aortic aneurysms across mice and humans.

This paper presents a high-quality chromosome-scale genome assembly for Gryllus bimaculatus using long-read sequencing and Hi-C data, significantly improving contiguity and gene annotation completeness.

This study shows that CB1R antagonists induce apoptosis in SH-SY5Y cells under serum-free conditions through mitochondrial dysfunction and ER stress.

This paper develops a system using DeepLabCut to analyze cricket behavior and posture, revealing diurnal rhythms in locomotion, feeding, and sleep-like states without human bias or physical tagging.

This study compares vascularization strategies in human cerebral organoids using single-cell RNA sequencing to identify transcriptomic effects and cell interactions.

The paper presents the first high-quality genome assembly of the house cricket and demonstrates genetic engineering techniques for improving its agricultural and industrial applications.

The paper uses immunohistochemistry to study Ser65-pUb distribution in mouse hippocampus, finding reduced levels in PINK1-deficient mice and partial colocalization with neuronal markers.
