This study shows that growth factor-free synthetic matrices reveal donor-specific differences in human skeletal progenitor cell osteogenic potential, which are masked by conventional methods.

The paper identifies 792 genes associated with HIV load using transcriptomics and confirms TRABD2A as a viral restriction factor through Mendelian Randomization.

This study profiles GnRH neurons in mice to uncover developmental gene expression patterns linked to human reproductive processes.

This study uses human minibrain models and BRB-seq to analyze TMT-induced neurotoxicity, identifying key molecular events and pathways involved in adverse outcomes.

This study identifies the Hippo pathway's role in regulating sarcomeric gene expression to control myofibril assembly and muscle fiber growth in Drosophila.

This paper introduces BRB-seq, a cost-effective bulk RNA-seq method that matches TruSeq performance and enables high-throughput transcriptomics with low-quality RNA.
