Transcription factors (TFs) are pivotal in tumor initiation and progression, regulating downstream gene expression and modulating cellular processes. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of TF gene sets to define the molecular subtype...
An underlying association between primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and COVID-19 has been hypothesized, but the causal link and shared mechanisms remain unclear. This study integrates epidemiological and bioinformatics approaches to investigate thei...
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), a prevalent spinal condition linked to low back pain, has substantial genetic components, necessitating deeper understanding of its mechanisms. This study categorized nucleus pulposus cell (NPC) populations and...
The treatment of sepsis is challenging due to unclear mechanisms. Propionate is increasingly seen as critical to sepsis pathophysiology by bridging gut microbiota and immunity, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Our study analysed differences in prop...
During cell-cell communication (CCC), pathways activated by different ligand-receptor pairs may have crosstalk with each other. While multiple methods have been developed to infer CCC networks and their downstream response using single-cell RNA-seq d...
Combinatorial control by transcription factors (TFs) is central to eukaryotic gene regulation, yet its mechanism, evolution, and regulatory impact are not well understood. Here we use natural variation in the yeast phosphate starvation (PHO) response...
Bio-instructive materials that intrinsically inhibit biofilm formation have significant anti-biofouling potential in industrial and healthcare settings. Since bacterial surface attachment is sensitive to surface topography, we experimentally surveyed...
Understanding developmental changes in neuronal lineages is crucial to elucidate how they assemble into functional neural networks. Studies investigating nervous system development in model systems have only focused on select regions of the CNS due t...
The DNA binding of most Escherichia coli Transcription Factors (TFs) has not been comprehensively mapped, and few have models that can quantitatively predict binding affinity. We report the global mapping of in vivo DNA binding for 139 E. coli TFs us...
BACKGROUND: Predicting protein-DNA binding sites in vivo is a challenging but urgent task in many fields such as drug design and development. Most promoters contain many transcription factor (TF) binding sites, yet only a few have been identified thr...
