Identifying why complex tissue regeneration is present or absent in specific vertebrate lineages has remained elusive. One also wonders whether the isolated examples where regeneration is observed represent cases of convergent evolution or are instead the product of phylogenetic inertia from a common ancestral program. Testing alternative hypotheses to identify genetic regulation, cell states, and tissue physiology that explain how regenerative healing emerges in some species requires sampling multiple species among which there is variation in regenerative ability across a phylogenetic framework.

Understanding the genetic regulatory mechanisms of gene expression is an ongoing challenge. Genetic variants that are associated with expression levels are readily identified when they are proximal to the gene (i.e.

This study enrolled 10 patients diagnosed with premalignant lesions and early-stage gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA), confirmed through endoscopic examination. These patients were subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a customized 1123-gene panel to identify genetic alterations and signaling pathways. The results were compared to stage IIB to IV GCA samples from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and a cohort of Hong Kong patients.

Rationale: Ependymomas are commonly prevalent intramedullary neoplasms in adults, with hardly any cases of exophytic extramedullary ependymoma being reported. Meningiomas, on the contrary, are one of the most common intradural extramedullary (IDEM) tumors. However, the occurrence of both IDEM tumors simultaneously is extremely rare.

Rationale: Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) defines a group of severe and heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorders. The voltage-gated potassium channel subfamily 2 voltage-gated potassium channel α subunit encoded by the KCNB1 gene is essential for neuronal excitability. Previous studies have shown that KCNB1 variants can cause DEE.
