TLDR
This work presents DESeq2, a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates, which enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression.Abstract:
In comparative high-throughput sequencing assays, a fundamental task is the analysis of count data, such as read counts per gene in RNA-seq, for evidence of systematic changes across experimental conditions. Small replicate numbers, discreteness, large dynamic range and the presence of outliers require a suitable statistical approach. We present DESeq2, a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates. This enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression. The DESeq2 package is available at http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/DESeq2.html

TL;DR: It is shown that acute inflammation of the mouse small intestine is followed by a dramatic loss of Lgr5+ stem cells, and the plasticity of the intestinal epithelium in response to inflammation extends to the fully differentiated and post-mitotic Paneth cells.

A TGFβ-PRMT5-MEP50 axis regulates cancer cell invasion through histone H3 and H4 arginine methylation coupled transcriptional activation and repression
TL;DR: The decoding of histone methylarginine at key genes supports a critical role for complementary PRMT5-MEP50 transcriptional activation and repression in cancer invasion pathways and in response to TGFβ stimulation and therefore orients future chemotherapeutic opportunities.

TL;DR: Two studies in this week’s issue probe WAT in search of cells producing the alarmin cytokine IL-33 that regulates Tregs and ILC2s and uncover a VAT Treg:stromal cell negative regulatory loop that keeps the potent effect of IL- 33 under rein.

Origin and evolution of the nuclear auxin response system

TL;DR: This study uses a deep phylogenomics approach to reconstruct both the origin and the evolutionary trajectory of all nuclear auxin response protein families, and finds that, while all subdomains are ancient, a complete Auxin response mechanism is limited to land plants.

A Single Mechanism of Biogenesis, Initiated and Directed by PIWI Proteins, Explains piRNA Production in Most Animals.
TL;DR: The unified model places PIWI-clade Argonautes at the center of piRNA biology and suggests that the ancestral animal-the Urmetazoan-used PIWI proteins both to generate piRNA guides and to execute piRNA function.

Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing
Yoav Benjamini,Yosef Hochberg +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach to problems of multiple significance testing is presented, which calls for controlling the expected proportion of falsely rejected hypotheses -the false discovery rate, which is equivalent to the FWER when all hypotheses are true but is smaller otherwise.

edgeR: a Bioconductor package for differential expression analysis of digital gene expression data.
TL;DR: EdgeR as mentioned in this paper is a Bioconductor software package for examining differential expression of replicated count data, which uses an overdispersed Poisson model to account for both biological and technical variability and empirical Bayes methods are used to moderate the degree of overdispersion across transcripts, improving the reliability of inference.

Generalized Linear Models

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods, illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables), and gamma (variance components).

The Elements of Statistical Learning: Data Mining, Inference, and Prediction
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the important ideas in these areas in a common conceptual framework, and the emphasis is on concepts rather than mathematics, with a liberal use of color graphics.
