The possibility that single-cell gene expression datasets could leak information about individuals' genotypes has been largely unexplored. Walker et al. showed that even noisy genotype predictions derived from these data can be linked to the corresponding genotype profiles with significant accuracy.

The global rise in Crohn's Disease (CD) incidence has intensified diagnostic challenges. This study identified circadian rhythm-related biomarkers for CD using datasets from the GEO database. Differentially expressed genes underwent Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis, with 49 hub genes intersected from GeneCards data.

Bats have adapted to pathogens through diverse mechanisms, including increased resistance - rapid pathogen elimination, and tolerance - limiting tissue damage following infection. In the Egyptian fruit bat (an important model in comparative immunology) several mechanisms conferring disease tolerance were discovered, but mechanisms underpinning resistance remain poorly understood. Previous studies on other species suggested that elevated basal expression of innate immune genes may lead to increased resistance to infection.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignancies. Hypoxia can promote the occurrence and development of CRC. However, how hypoxia regulates the CRC immune microenvironment needs to be further explored.

Macrophages play a crucial role in the immune response during allograft rejection in organ transplantation. Therefore, our study aimed to explore the genomic features of macrophages in mouse heart transplants and use single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate Galectin-9 (Gal-9, Lgals9), a lectin that can mediate the activation and differentiation of immune cells through ligand-receptor interactions, and the effects of its regulation in transplantation. We discovered a new subset of macrophages called "Myoz2+ macrophages", which specifically expressed genes related to myocardial contraction.

Purpose: Immunometabolism is pivotal in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis, yet the intricacies of its pathological regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study explores the complex immunometabolic landscape of RA to identify potential therapeutic targets.
Patients And Methods: We integrated genome-wide association study (GWAS) data involving 1,400 plasma metabolites, 731 immune cell traits, and RA outcomes from over 58,000 participants.
