Sexual dimorphism for juvenile body weight in chickens divergently selected for 8-week body weight by Paul B. Siegel, Christa F. Honaker

“…It is very difficult to genetically modify sexual dimorphism in a particular population using the currently available conventional tools, and nature possesses homeostatic mechanisms that maintain stasis in a population.…”

Pancreatic Ductal Organoids React Kras Dependent to the Removal of Tumor Suppressive Roadblocks by Lukas Perkhofer, Melanie Engler, Johann Gout, Frank Arnold, Mareen Morawe, Markus Breunig, Thomas Seufferlein, Alexander Kleger, Pierre-Olivier Frappart

“…Here, we could establish and develop tools allowing us to isolate, culture, and genetically modify ductal mouse organoids. Transferred to known effectors in the IPMN-PDAC sequence, we could reveal significantly increased proliferative and self-renewal capacities for PTEN and RNF43 deficiency in the context of oncogenic KRASG12D in mouse pancreatic organoids. …”

Oligogenic effect is associated with the clinical heterogeneity of autosomal dominant deafness-15 by Jianyan Pan, Hua Teng, Fang Liu, Siyi Chen, Yaning Liu, Yanling Teng, Desheng Liang, Zhuo Li, Lingqian Wu

“…Meanwhile, three genes STRC, GJB2 and CDC14A were validated as POU4F3 new targets, implicating that the variants in the three genes may play a role of genetic modifier to generate a synergistic and enhancement effect on the progression of DFNA15.…”
