Single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) technology has become the state‐of‐the‐art
approach for unravelling the heterogeneity and complexity of RNA transcripts within …

Precision oncology seeks to leverage molecular information about cancer to improve patient
outcomes. Tissue biopsy samples are widely used to characterize tumours but are limited by …

Neural stem cells (NSCs) generate new neurons throughout life in the mammalian brain.
Adult-born neurons shape brain function, and endogenous NSCs could potentially be …

The innate immune response provides the first line of defense against invading pathogens,
and immune disorders cause a variety of diseases. The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster …

Parallel single-cell sequencing protocols represent powerful methods for investigating
regulatory relationships, including epigenome-transcriptome interactions. Here, we report a …

The idea that epigenetic determinants such as DNA methylation, histone modifications or
RNA can be passed to the next generation through meiotic products (gametes) is long …

Single-cell genomics has now made it possible to create a comprehensive atlas of human
cells. At the same time, it has reopened definitions of a cell's identity and of the ways in …

A remarkable epigenetic remodelling process occurs shortly after fertilization, which restores
totipotency to the zygote. This involves global DNA demethylation, chromatin remodelling …

Gene expression analyses of microglia, the tissue-resident macrophages of the central
nervous system (CNS), led to the identification of homeostatic as well as neurological …

Mechanisms of epigenetic regulation, including DNA methylation, chromatin remodeling,
and histone post-translational modifications, are involved in multiple aspects of neuronal …
