🚨Preprint! #Placental #organoids developing #preeclampsia (PE)?🤯Boosting #BAP1 induced key traits of early-onset PE: ❌impaired syncytialization & EVT differentiation 🔥persistent pro-inflammatory signals 🤒broad placental dysfunction 🚀🥦🎉team! @cbm-csic-uam.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🚨 New preprint! We built a single-cell atlas of 14 multilayered epithelia and revealed a conserved transcriptomic program guiding tissue architecture and fate composition. Our work brings decades of tissue-specific studies together into a unified evo-devo framework. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Check out these feather buds on the chicken embryo's wing! Our latest study @plosbiology.org reveals that temporary inhibition of sonic hedgehog signalling transforms feathers into simple, protofeather-like structures—similar to those of their dinosaur ancestors🔬🦖🧪 journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

A study in Nature Communications shows that Zika virus NS1 induces tunneling nanotubes in placental cells, which facilitate viral spread and transport of mitochondria in placental cells. The findings could be used to develop therapeutic strategies targeted against this transmission mode. 🧪

Our new paper linking Tregs, uNK cells & uterine vasculature “Treg cells promote decidual vascular remodeling and modulate uterine NK cells in pregnant mice” super effort from Alison Care, Shanna Hosking, Lachlan Moldenhauer and all the team! insight.jci.org/articles/vie...
