GeneSurfer Enables Transcriptome-wide Exploration and Functional Annotation of Gene Co-expression Modules in 3D Spatial Transcriptomics Data.

Gene co-expression provides crucial insights into biological functions, however, there is a lack of exploratory analysis tools for localized gene co-expression in large-scale datasets. We present GeneSurfer, an interactive interface designed to explore localized transcriptome-wide gene co-expression patterns in the 3D spatial domain. Key features of GeneSurfer include transcriptome-wide gene filtering and gene clustering based on spatial local co-expression within transcriptomically similar cells, multi-slice 3D rendering of average expression of gene clusters, and on-the-fly Gene Ontology term annotation of co-expressed gene sets.

The Influence of a Multistage Mountain-Bike Race on Neuromuscular Activation and Synergies: A Case Study.

Introduction: This case study aimed to describe potential changes in neuromuscular activation and synergies after an 8-day cross-country mountain-bike stage race.

Methods: A peak power output test was performed 5 days before the race. Two days before the start and after 7 days of racing, the athlete performed a power-based Lamberts Submaximal Cycling Test, including surface electromyography, and completed a Daily Analysis of Life Demands of Athletes questionnaire.

SpaceWalker enables interactive gradient exploration for spatial transcriptomics data.

In spatial transcriptomics (ST) data, biologically relevant features such as tissue compartments or cell-state transitions are reflected by gene expression gradients. Here, we present SpaceWalker, a visual analytics tool for exploring the local gradient structure of 2D and 3D ST data. The user can be guided by the local intrinsic dimensionality of the high-dimensional data to define seed locations, from which a flood-fill algorithm identifies transcriptomically similar cells on the fly, based on the high-dimensional data topology.

CISS effect: Magnetocurrent-voltage characteristics with Coulomb interactions. II.

One of the manifestations of chirality-induced spin selectivity is the appearance of a magnetocurrent. Magnetocurrent is defined as the difference between the charge currents at finite bias in a two terminal device for opposite magnetizations of one of the leads. In experiments on chiral molecules assembled in monolayers the magnetocurrent is dominantly odd in bias voltage, while theory often yields an even one.
