  • Cell-state-specific enhancer design in hematopoiesis

    During cellular differentiation, the activity of transcription factors (TFs) changes to regulate the expression patterns of lineage-specific genes. However, it remains unclear how enhancers can transform the activity of an identical set of TFs…

    Detection of Volatile Organic Compounds as an emerging strategy for Parkinson’s disease diagnosis and monitoring

    Analytical techniques for VOC detection in PD

    Variation in VOC levels in PD have been explored across both pre-clinical and clinical studies with the aim of developing non-invasive tests for diagnosis and/or monitoring. The choice of the…

  • Gut ILC2s remember IL-25 | Nature Reviews Immunology

    Helminths have evolved complex pathways to create favourable host environments. Through a well-characterized immunoregulatory axis, helminths stimulate gut epithelial tuft cells to produce IL-25, which activates group 2 innate lymphoid cells…

  • A new first-line standard-of-care for BRAFV600E-mutated mCRC

    The combination of the BRAF inhibitor encorafenib and the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab is the standard-of-care (SOC) second-line treatment for patients with BRAFV600E-mutated metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRC; 8–12% of patients). Now, results…

  • Penetrance of Parkinson’s disease in GBA1 carriers depends on variant severity and polygenic background

    Penetrance of Parkinson’s disease in GBA1 carriers depends on variant severity and polygenic background

    In this study, we investigated the combined effect of polygenic background and PD-associated GBA1 variants on the risk of developing PD across two cohorts. Our findings show that both PRSs and GBA1PVs independently contribute to PD risk….
