The complex neurodevelopmental disorder schizophrenia is thought to be induced by an interaction between predisposing genes and environmental stressors. In order to get a better insight into the aetiology of this complex disorder, animal models have been developed. In this review, we summarize mRNA expression profiling studies on neurodevelopmental, pharmacological and genetic animal models for schizophrenia. We discuss parallels and contradictions among these studies, and propose strategies for future research.

Transcriptomic Profiles in Nasal Epithelium and Asthma Endotypes in Youth.
JAMA
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Pulmonary Medicine, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Importance: T helper 2 (T2) cells and T helper 17 (T17) cells are CD4+ T cell subtypes involved in asthma. Characterizing asthma endotypes based on these cell types in diverse groups is important for developing effective therapies for youths with asthma.
Objective: To identify asthma endotypes in school-aged youths aged 6 to 20 years by examining the distribution and characteristics of transcriptomic profiles in nasal epithelium.

Objective: Although sexual minority men experience substantial discrimination, in addition to increased risk for several serious mental and somatic health problems, the biological mechanisms underlying these effects are unclear. To address this issue, we examined how experiences of social safety (i.e.

CRISPR-Cas tools have recently been adapted for cell lineage tracing during development. Combined with single-cell RNA sequencing, these methods enable scalable lineage tracing with single-cell resolution. Here, I describe, scGESTALTv2, which combines cumulative CRISPR-Cas9 editing of a lineage barcode array with transcriptional profiling via droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq).

A key goal of biology is to understand the origin of the many cell types that can be observed during diverse processes such as development, regeneration, and disease. Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) is commonly used to identify cell types in a tissue or organ. However, organizing the resulting taxonomy of cell types into lineage trees to understand the origins of cell states and relationships between cells remains challenging.
