Journal ArticleDOI

TGF-beta and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transitions.

TL;DR: The distinct physiological contexts of EMT and the underlying molecular signaling networks controlled by TGF-β are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotics in early life alter the murine colonic microbiome and adiposity

TL;DR: A model of adiposity is generated by giving subtherapeutic antibiotic therapy to young mice and changes in the composition and capabilities of the gut microbiome are evaluated, demonstrating the alteration of early-life murine metabolic homeostasis through antibiotic manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive assessment of RNA-seq accuracy, reproducibility and information content by the Sequencing Quality Control Consortium

Zhenqiang Su, +164 more

TL;DR: The complete SEQC data sets, comprising >100 billion reads, provide unique resources for evaluating RNA-seq analyses for clinical and regulatory settings, and measurement performance depends on the platform and data analysis pipeline, and variation is large for transcript-level profiling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ezh1 and Ezh2 maintain repressive chromatin through different mechanisms.

TL;DR: It is reported that the mammalian homologs Ezh1 and Ezh2 form similar PRC2 complexes but exhibit contrasting repressive roles, and Ez h1 knockdown was ineffectual on global H3K27me2/3 levels, while Ezh 1 directly and robustly represses transcription from chromatinized templates and compacts chromatin in the absence of the methyltransferase cofactor SAM.
