Application of Cell‐Free DNA Barcode‐Enabled Single‐Molecule Test for Non‐Invasive Prenatal Testing of α‐Thalassemia and β‐Thalassemia

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We evaluated the cfBEST assay for non‐invasive prenatal testing of α‐ and β‐thalassemia in 72 families. The assay correctly identified 88 of 93 fetal alleles, achieving an overall accuracy of 94.6%, a sensitivity of 94%, and a specificity of 95.35%, with 100% concordance with postnatal follow‐up.

A Microglia–Astrocyte Signaling Axis Regulates Astrocyte Piezo1 Expression and Inflammatory Responses

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Activated microglia‐derived inflammatory signals drive astrocytic Piezo1 expression in both in vitro and in vivo models. Piezo1 upregulation modulates astrocytic Ca2+ dynamics and inflammatory gene expression, thereby limiting microglial activation. ABSTRACT Structural tissue alterations in numerous brain disorders can initiate mechanosensory signaling
