BACKGROUND: Genetic variations in the Trpm8 gene that encodes the cold receptor TRPM8 have been linked to protection against polygenic migraine, a disabling condition primarily affecting women. Noteworthy, TRPM8 has been recently found in brain areas...
The exploration of cell-type and environmentally responsive nuclear pore complex (NPC) plasticity requires new, accessible tools. Using pan-expansion microscopy (pan-ExM), NPCs were identified by machine learning-facilitated segmentation. They exhibi...
Although genetic variant effects often interact nonadditively, strategies to uncover epistasis remain in their infancy. Here we develop low-signal signed iterative random forests to elucidate the complex genetic architecture of cardiac hypertrophy, u...

Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of heart muscle diseases that can lead to heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. Traditional animal models and in vitro systems have limitations in replicating the complex pathology of human c...
Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of untreatable vision loss. In advanced cases, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell loss occurs alongside photoreceptor and choriocapillaris degeneration. We hypothesized that an RPE-patc...
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)-derived neuronal networks on multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) are a powerful tool for studying neurological disorders. The electric activity patterns of these networks differ between healthy and patient-deri...

Deep learning-based cell senescence detection is crucial for accurate quantitative analysis of senescence assessment. However, senescent cells are small in size and have little differences in appearance and shape in different states, which leads to i...
Micropatterning is reliable method for quantifying pluripotency of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) that differentiate to form a spatial pattern of sorted, ordered and nonoverlapped three germ layers on the micropattern. In this study, w...
The identification of drug-induced cardiotoxicity remains a pressing challenge with far-reaching clinical and economic ramifications, often leading to patient harm and resource-intensive drug recalls. Current methodologies, including in vivo and in v...
