The transcriptome dynamics of single cells during the cell cycle

TL;DR: Cells traverse high-dimensional gene expression space in a 2D circular motion, thus minimizing changes of expression changes (“Acceleration”) and uncover a general design principle of the cell cycle that may be of relevance to many other cellular differentiation processes.

Genomes & Developmental Control Computational identification of microRNA targets

TL;DR: This work presents a new computational method that is designed to identify microRNA target sites with high specificity and finds that many key developmental body patterning genes such as hairy and fushi-tarazu are likely to be translationally regulated by microRNAs.

Prox2+ and Runx3+ neurons regulate esophageal motility

TL;DR: This work reveals the identity and function of the vagal neurons that provide mechanosensory feedback from the esophagus to the brain, and could lead to better understanding and treatment of esophageal motility disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling viral encephalitis caused by herpes simplex virus 1 infection in cerebral organoids

TL;DR: In this article , the authors characterized HSV-1 infection of human brain organoids by combining single-cell RNA sequencing, electrophysiology and immunostaining, and observed strong perturbations of tissue integrity, neuronal function and cellular transcriptomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term imaging reveals behavioral plasticity during C. elegans dauer exit

TL;DR: WormObserver as mentioned in this paper is an open hardware and software platform for video acquisition, automated processing of large image data and data analysis of C. elegans larva, which can be used for long-term imaging (12h).
