Exploring Affordable Curative Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease in Africa: A Comprehensive Overview
ABSTRACT The practical aspects of developing curative treatments for sickle cell disease (SCD) in Africa, such as gene therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, involve strengthening healthcare infrastructure, training healthcare professionals, establishing regional treatment centers, and creating national SCD programs.

ABSTRACT The corneal endothelium is a monolayer of specialized cells that maintains stromal deturgescence and transparency, functions essential for vision. Despite its clinical importance, the developmental origins and homeostatic programs of the endothelium remain poorly understood, in part due to the lack of a lineage‐specific genetic driver.

Contribution of Gli1<sup>+</sup> Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury. [PDF]
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) tools are increasingly used for biodiversity monitoring, with most existing assays targeting species‐level identification. However, the use of eDNA to resolve intraspecific genetic variation remains rare and methodologically underdeveloped.

This review primarily summarizes the genetic defects in Müllerian anomalies, the tools used to validate these genetic defects, and the future clinical significance of identifying the precise genetic etiology of Müllerian anomalies. ABSTRACT Müllerian anomalies are a collection of heterogeneous anatomical disorders of the female genital tract that ...

Repeated Stress Escalates Aggression and Activity in Fronto‐Limbic Regions in Cntnap2−/− Mice
Stress induced aggression emerges only after repeated restraint stress in Cntnap2−/− mice. Neuronal activity mapping revealed stress‐evoked activation in the lateral septum, lateral habenula, lateral hypothalamus, nucleus accumbens, and prefrontal cortex, with aggressive behavior positively correlating specifically with activity in the lateral septum ...
