Pseudotemporal ordering of spatial lymphoid tissue microenvironment profiles trails Unclassified DLBCL at the periphery of the follicle
We have established a pseudotemporal ordering for the transcriptional signatures of distinct microregions within reactive lymphoid tissues, namely germinal center dark zones (DZ), germinal center light zones (LZ), and peri-follicular…

Molecular insights using spatial transcriptomics of the distal lung in Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
Abnormal pulmonary vascular development and function in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a significant factor leading to pulmonary hypertension. The lung has marked cellular diversity that is differentially responsive to…

Immune response after pig-to-human kidney xenotransplantation: a multimodal phenotyping study
Background: Cross-species immunological incompatibilities have hampered pig-to-human xenotransplantation, but porcine genome engineering recently enabled the first successful experiments. However, little is known about the immune response after the transplantation of…

Immune dysfunction revealed by digital spatial profiling of immuno-oncology markers in progressive stages of renal cell carcinoma and in brain metastases
Background: The tumor microenvironment (TME) contributes to cancer progression and treatment response to therapy, including in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Prior profiling studies, including single-cell transcriptomics, often involve limited sample…

Astroglial Hmgb1 regulates postnatal astrocyte morphogenesis and cerebrovascular maturation
Astrocytes are intimately linked with brain blood vessels, an essential relationship for neuronal function. However, astroglial factors driving these physical and functional associations during postnatal brain development have yet to…

A CSF-1R-blocking antibody/IL-10 fusion protein increases anti-tumor immunity by effectuating tumor-resident CD8+ T cells
Strategies to increase intratumoral concentrations of an anticancer agent are desirable to optimize its therapeutic potential when said agent is efficacious primarily within a tumor but also have significant systemic…

Characterization of Vps13b-mutant mice reveals neuroanatomical and behavioral phenotypes with females less affected
The vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 13B (VPS13B) is a large and highly conserved protein. Disruption of VPS13B causes the autosomal recessive Cohen syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by microcephaly and…

Spatial transcriptomics analysis of esophageal squamous precancerous lesions and their progression to esophageal cancer
Esophageal squamous precancerous lesions (ESPL) are the precursors of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) including low-grade and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia. Due to the absence of molecular indicators, which ESPL will…
