BMP‐Dependent Modulation of ROS Generation and Scavenging Controls Interdigital Cell Death
BMP signaling regulates ROS generation and scavenging to control interdigital cell death in the developing chicken limb, highlighting a balance between oxidative stress and tissue regression. ABSTRACT Programmed cell death during embryonic development plays a vital role in shaping limb morphology in amniotes.

Haploinsufficiency of brain‐specific kinase BRSK1 causes epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders
Abstract Objective The BRSK1 gene encodes brain‐specific serine/threonine kinase 1 (also known as SAD‐B kinase), which is almost exclusively expressed in the brain and plays critical roles in neuronal polarization, neurotransmitter release, mitochondrial dynamics, and neuronal maturation.

Penetrance of pathogenic epilepsy variants is low and shaped by common genetic background
Abstract Objective The identification of pathogenic variants in developmental epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) genes can be vital for counseling and individualized treatment. Penetrance is usually considered to be high or full, although this has never been studied in population cohorts.

Abstract Background Strangles (Streptococcus equi infection) remains endemic in the UK, with ~300 laboratory diagnoses annually. Sub‐clinically infected long‐term carriers are considered a key driver of endemicity. Analysing genomes of circulating strains could provide valuable transmission insights of this pathogen.

Metastasis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) poses significant clinical challenges. This proof‐of‐concept study establishes patient‐derived orthotopic xenografts (PDOXs) as advanced models that closely replicate primary HNSC tumours, including local lymph node metastasis and the intricate cancer–stroma interaction.
