We mapped 11 sorghum traits, identified 33 candidate genes, and found a grain yield gene () that regulates seed development and a grass-specific tillering gene (DUF1618) transferred to .

Over the past century, colorectal cancer (CRC) has become one of the most devastating cancers impacting the human population. To gain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving this solid tumor, researchers have increasingly turned their attention to the tumor microenvironment (TME). Spatial transcriptomics and proteomics have emerged as a particularly powerful technology for deciphering the complexity of CRC tumors, given that the TME and its spatial organization are critical determinants of disease progression and treatment response.

This study explores the specific contribution of their core symptoms to shared biology in a sample of N=166 verbal children (6-12 years) with rigorously-established primary diagnoses of either autism or ADHD (without autism). We investigated the associations between inter-individual differences in clinician-based dimensional measures of autism and ADHD symptoms and whole-brain low motion intrinsic functional connectivity (iFC).

Cell-type-specific contributions to CD etiology and genetic risk are incompletely understood. Here we built a comprehensive atlas of cell-type- resolved chromatin accessibility comprising 557,310 candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) in terminal ileum and ascending colon from patients with active and inactive CD and healthy controls.

To learn about causal genes and mechanisms at the remaining loci, we created a unified single-cell chromatin accessibility (scATAC-seq) map in peripheral blood comprising a total of 282,424 cells from 48 individuals. Clustering and topic modeling of scATAC data identified discrete cell-types and continuous cell states, which helped reveal disease-relevant cellular contexts, and allowed mapping of genetic effects on chromatin accessibility across these contexts.

The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) border accommodates diverse immune cells that permit peripheral cell immunosurveillance. However, the intricate interactions between CSF immune cells and infiltrating cancer cells remain poorly understood. Here we use fate mapping, longitudinal time-lapse imaging and multiomics technologies to investigate the precise origin, cellular crosstalk and molecular landscape of macrophages that contribute to leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) progression.
