This paper develops a 3D-printable, cytocompatible hydrogel from Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 extracellular matrix, demonstrating its versatility for biofabrication.

The paper uses single-cell multi-modal analysis to identify molecular drivers of limbal stem cell differentiation from human PSCs, revealing key transcription factors and enhancers involved in lineage specification.

This study shows that microglia from MS patients have intrinsic activation features, identified through iPSC-derived microglia-like cells and transcriptomic analysis.

This study develops a biomimetic hydrogel platform to model RPE-retina interactions, revealing actin-dependent force transduction during photoreceptor phagocytosis.

This study uses scRNA-seq to analyze hPSC differentiation into corneal limbal stem cells, identifying nine clusters and four novel cell states, and provides markers for isolating pure LSC-like populations.

The paper investigates the effects of alcohol exposure on placental DNA methylation and identifies DPPA4 as a candidate gene for alcohol-induced developmental disorders.
