    Three-dimensional chromatin reorganization regulates B cell development during ageing

    The contribution of three-dimensional genome organization to physiological ageing is not well known. Here we show that large-scale chromatin reorganization distinguishes young and old bone marrow progenitor (p...

    Aging exacerbates the brain inflammatory micro-environment contributing to α-synuclein pathology and functional deficits in a mouse model of DLB/PD

    Although ɑ-synuclein (ɑ-syn) spreading in age-related neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) has been extensively investigated, the role of aging in the...

    RNA-seq analysis of galaninergic neurons from ventrolateral preoptic nucleus identifies expression changes between sleep and wake

    Previous studies show that galanin neurons in ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO-Gal) are essential for sleep regulation. Here, we explored the transcriptional regulation of the VLPO-Gal neurons in sleep by ...

    Comparative evaluation of RNA-Seq library preparation methods for strand-specificity and low input

    Library preparation is a key step in sequencing. For RNA sequencing there are advantages to both strand specificity and working with minute starting material, yet until recently there was no kit available enab...
