    Perirenal adipose tissue contains a subpopulation of cold-inducible adipocytes derived from brown-to-white conversion

    Houyu Zhang, Yan Li ... Meng Xie
    A brown-to-white adipogenic transdifferentiation process in the periureter region of mouse renal adipose tissue gives rise to a population of cold-inducible adipocytes with a transcriptome distinct from subcutaneous beige adipocytes.

    Mouse SAS-6 is required for centriole formation in embryos and integrity in embryonic stem cells

    Marta Grzonka, Hisham Bazzi
    Unlike mouse embryos, mouse embryonic stem cells are able to use a SAS-6-independent pathway for imperfect centriole biogenesis that is associated with a rich centrosomal milieu and robust PLK4 activity.

    RNA fusion in human retinal development

    Wen Wang, Xiao Zhang ... Zi-Bing Jin
    Chimeric RNAs are widely distributed spatiotemporally during human retinal development and have important regulatory functions, such as silencing of CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 biasing the progenitor cells toward the RPE cell fate at the expense of neural retinal cell fates.

    Delta-dependent Notch activation closes the early neuroblast temporal program to promote lineage progression and neurogenesis termination in Drosophila

    Chhavi Sood, Md Ausrafuggaman Nahid ... Sarah E Siegrist
    Notch signaling regulates the neuroblast intrinsic temporal program to determine when neuroblasts terminate their cell divisions during development.
