Mashup Score: 0Mitochondrial MICOS complex genes, implicated in hypoplastic left heart syndrome, maintain cardiac contractility and actomyosin integrity - 2 year(s) ago
Abstract Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a severe congenital heart disease (CHD) with a likely oligogenic etiology, but our understanding of the genetic complexities and pathogenic mechanisms leading to HLHS is limited. We therefore performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on a large cohort of HLHS patients and their families to identify candidate genes that were then tested in…

Mashup Score: 13Spatial determination and prognostic impact of the fibroblast transcriptome in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma - 2 year(s) ago
Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has a poor clinical outcome and responses to immunotherapy are suboptimal. Stromal fibroblasts are a dominant but heterogenous population within the tumor microenvironment and therapeutic targeting of stromal subsets may have therapeutic utility. Here we combine spatial transcriptomics and scRNA-Seq datasets to define the transcriptome of…

Mashup Score: 0Syncytin-mediated open-ended membrane tubular connections facilitate the intercellular transfer of cargos including Cas9 protein - 2 year(s) ago
A human endogenous fusogen, syncytin, which facilitates placental cell-cell fusion during early embryonic development, mediates the formation of open-ended membrane tubular connections between other cell types that efficiently promotes the intercellular transfer of cytoplasmic cargos including Cas9 protein and organelles.

Abstract Introduction: Reproducibility is a central tenant of research. We aimed to synthesize the literature on reproducibility and describe its epidemiological characteristics, including how reproducibility is defined and assessed. We also aimed to determine and compare estimates for reproducibility across different fields. Methods: We conducted a scoping review to identify…
