<h4>Background</h4>Malaria remains a major global health challenge, disproportionately affecting sub-Saharan Africa. The growing threat of resistance to insecticides in <i>Anopheles</i> vector populations poses a major challenge to the efficacy of core interventions such as long-lasting …
Read PDFDICER1-related tumor predisposition (DRTP), also known as DICER1 syndrome, encompasses a spectrum of malignancies mainly in children and young adults. Most are sarcomas, exhibiting histological and molecular similarities regardless of their anatomical origins, and only …
Read PDFHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Tumor heterogeneity is a major obstacle to effective treatment and is poorly understood using traditional bulk sequencing methods. This review highlights the transformative …
Read PDFReactive macrophages and microglia are predominant myeloid cell types in demyelinating multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions in the central nervous system (CNS). Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM2) promotes clearance of myelin debris, supporting remyelination …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Cirrhosis, particularly HBV-induced, poses a significant global health burden. This study compares immune cell landscapes in HBV and non-viral cirrhosis using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to elucidate distinct immune mechanisms driving disease progression.<h4>Methods</h4>Liver tissues from …
Read PDFIκBζ (<i>NFKBIZ</i>) has been implicated as a key co-transcription factor in psoriasis pathogenesis. While its role in keratinocytes is well established, the involvement in dermal fibroblasts, another critical skin cell type, remains underexplored. This study …
Read PDFT cells are the central players in antitumor immunity, and effective tumor killing depends on their ability to infiltrate into the tumor microenvironment (TME) while maintaining normal cytotoxicity. However, late-stage tumors develop immunosuppressive mechanisms that …

Read PDFAcne vulgaris is a common skin condition involving complex interactions among lipid-secreting sebaceous glands, keratinocytes, immune cells, and microbiota. While retinoids are effective for treating acne, disease pathogenesis remains poorly understood. In particular, it remains …
Read PDFSpatial transcriptomics (ST) offers unprecedented opportunities to decode the spatial organization of gene expression, yet the inherent noise and complexity of ST data pose substantial challenges for accurate analysis. Here, we present DACN, a unified …
Read PDFSpatial transcriptomics (ST) links tissue morphology with gene expression values, opening new avenues for digital pathology. Deep learning models are used to predict gene expression or classify cell types directly from images, offering significant clinical …
Read PDFRegional brain atrophy has been observed in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), yet determinants of regional vulnerability remain unclear. Using imaging transcriptomics, we examined whether normative gene expression patterns relate to regional atrophy in DLB. …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Commercial molecular classifiers such as Prediction Analysis of Microarray 50 (PAM50), Oncotype DX, and MammaPrint have revolutionized breast cancer management. However, their clinical reliability is undermined by tumor heterogeneity.<h4>Methods</h4>We quantified the discordance in clinical molecular …
Read PDF<h4>Introduction</h4>Breast cancer (BRCA) remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality among women and poses significant therapeutic challenges. While the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) is well established as a key contributor to tumor progression …
Read PDFGlioblastoma (GBM) contains diverse immune and tumor cell populations whose spatial organization influences disease progression. To better understand how immune cells interact with brain tumor-initiating cells (BTICs), we applied integrated single-cell and spatial transcriptomic approaches …
Read PDFAdeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapy for severe neurological diseases is challenged by immune responses, which are difficult to study accurately in genetically divergent rodent models or in in vitro human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived …
Read PDF<h4>Objective</h4>Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits pronounced intratumoral heterogeneity, and cancer stem cells (CSCs) are thought to play a pivotal role in this process. However, the molecular regulatory mechanisms linking CSC-associated stemness features to tumor progression …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>The pulmonary immune system orchestrates lung homeostasis and protects against environmental insults through coordinated actions of immune and structural cells. Traditional Chinese medicine recognized the functional interaction between the lungs and the large intestine more …
Read PDFSpatially variable genes (SVGs) are essential for elucidating tissue organization within spatially resolved transcriptomics. While a number of computational methods have been developed for SVG identification, their reliance on algorithm-specific assumptions, such as predefined kernel …
