Deubiquitination of Vangl by USP6 and USP32 Regulates Planar Cell Polarity Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Compartment‐specific deubiquitination controls Vangl dosage and planar cell polarity signaling. USP6 and USP32 regulate distinct subcellular pools of Vangl by removing distinct ubiquitin modifications from Vangl proteins. This regulatory mechanism safeguards PCP‐dependent embryonic morphogenesis, while aberrant USP32‐dependent stabilization of VANGL ...

MethyAnno: An Interpretable Automated Annotation Method Leveraging Multi‐Scale Information and Metric Learning Framework for scDNAm Data

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MethyAnno enables robust and interpretable annotation of single‐cell DNA methylation data by integrating multi‐scale epigenetic information, bidirectional cross‐attention, and prototype‐based metric learning. The framework resolves rare and novel cell types across datasets while revealing cell‐type‐specific epigenetic signatures associated with disease

A Metal‐Polyphenol Self‐Assembled Coated 3D Sponge With Mild Photothermal Antibacterial, Exudate‐Controlling, and Immunomodulatory Functions for Hemostasis and Chronic Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A thrombin‐functionalized copper‐polydopamine nanofiber sponge integrates rapid hemostasis, mild photothermal antibacterial therapy, stimulus‐responsive Cu2+ release, chemodynamic oxidative stress, and macrophage immunomodulation. This multifunctional dressing suppresses infection, regulates inflammation, promotes angiogenesis and re‐epithelialization,

TGFBI Maintains Fibrocartilage Homeostasis by Restraining O‐GlcNAcylation to Inactivate and Destabilize ADAMTS16 in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TGFBI deficiency elevates O‐GlcNAcylation, promoting the transcriptional activation of ADAMTS16 and OGT‐mediated post‐translational modification of ADAMTS16 at Ser1170. This leads to its stabilization and accumulation, driving chondrocyte metabolic disorders and senescent phenotypes, ultimately resulting in fibrocartilage dysfunction and TMJOA ...

Fibroblast-induced mammary epithelial branching depends on fibroblast contractility.

PLoS Biology
Epithelial branching morphogenesis is an essential process in living organisms, through which organ-specific epithelial shapes are created. Interactions between epithelial cells and their stromal microenvironment instruct branching morphogenesis but ...

The co-factor of LIM domains (CLIM/LDB/NLI) maintains basal mammary epithelial stem cells and promotes breast tumorigenesis.

PLoS Genetics, 2014
Mammary gland branching morphogenesis and ductal homeostasis relies on mammary stem cell function for the maintenance of basal and luminal cell compartments. The mechanisms of transcriptional regulation of the basal cell compartment are currently unknown.

Mapping Embryonic Mouse Lung Development Using Enhanced Spatial Transcriptomics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The mammalian lung contains ∼50 cell types arranged along the airway epithelium. Here, deterministic barcoding sequencing (DBiT‐seq) is optimized to nearly double transcript recovery, enabling highly sensitive spatial mapping of the embryonic mouse lung.

scGEN: Leveraging an Adaptive Weighting Strategy for Challenging Cell Clustering in Single‐Cell RNA‐seq

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
scGEN combines attribute–structure encoding, adaptive hard‐sample weighting, and regularized zero‐inflated negative binomial loss to resolve ambiguous single‐cell states. In the developing human pituitary, refined annotations reveal Pre.Gonado cells at 7 weeks and previously obscured developmental communication networks.

Endowing Flexibility of Alveolar Type II Cells to Recapitulate Development From Lung Bud to Alveoli

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Adult human alveolar type 2 cells are chemically reprogrammed into expandable alveolar progenitor‐like cells that acquire bud tip‐like features during expansion and form organoids that mature into alveolar‐like structures. These organoids model influenza A virus infection and innate immune responses in vitro, while transplanted cells engraft ...

The ecological basis of morphogenesis: branching patterns in swarming colonies of bacteria

New Journal of Physics, 2014
Understanding how large-scale shapes in tissues, organs and bacterial colonies emerge from local interactions among cells and how these shapes remain stable over time are two fundamental problems in biology. Here we investigate branching morphogenesis in
