RNA-Seq – News and Features

While controlling swelling caused by brain cancer is important, a new study shows that a commonly prescribed anti-swelling drug suppresses the immune system for weeks after dosage, inhibiting the body’s ability to fight the cancer.

Researchers find four coordinated gene expression programs in immune cells from glioma tumors, including two that could lead to immunotherapy resistance.

New research uses genomics to provide insights into how organisms adjust their metabolism, taking a step toward understanding the complex functions of the metabolic network.

A new study from researchers at the University of Leipzig Medical Center and collaborators, has discovered a rare but serious side effect of CAR T-cell therapy in a 63-year-old patient.

A group of Berlin researchers in collaboration with international scientists have found differences in heart inflammation caused by COVID-19, anti-COVID-19 vaccination, and non-COVID-19 myocarditis.

New research brings scientists one step closer to understanding Rett Syndrome, a rare genetic disease that affects 1 in 10,000 newborn girls.

University of Michigan researchers developed a sponge-like implant that tracks early immune activity in MS-like disease. Using insights from the implant, they designed nanoparticles that halted or reduced symptoms in mice.

Deep learning models have shed light on how genetic switches controlling gene activity define brain cell types across species.

Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory created an aging breast tissue atlas, revealing how genetic and molecular shifts may increase cancer risk. Changes in epithelial, immune and stromal cells create a tumor-friendly microenvironment.

New studies show that bird and mammal brains evolved separately, with distinct genetic programs and developmental mechanisms. Researchers found that these species developed similar functions through different evolutionary paths.
