Evolutionary conservation of the functional modularity of primate and murine LINE-1 elements. by Bradley J Wagstaff, Miriam Barnerssoi, Astrid M Roy-Engel

“…LINE-1 (L1) retroelements emerged in mammalian genomes over 80 million years ago with a few dominant subfamilies amplifying over discrete time periods that led to distinct human and mouse L1 lineages. We evaluated the functional conservation of L1 sequences by comparing retrotransposition rates of chimeric human-rodent L1 constructs to their parental L1 counterparts. …”

Aberrant functional connectome gradient and its neurotransmitter basis in Parkinson's disease by Tao Guo, Cheng Zhou, Jiaqi Wen, Jingjing Wu, Yaping Yan, Jianmei Qin, Min Xuan, Haoting Wu, Chenqing Wu, Jingwen Chen, Sijia Tan, Xiaojie Duanmu, Baorong Zhang, Xiaojun Xu, Minming Zhang, Xiaojun Guan

“…However, whether these gradients are altered in PD patients and how these alterations associate with neurotransmitter profiles remain unknown. By constructing functional network and calculating its gradient in 134 PD patients and 172 normal controls, we compared functional connectivity gradients between groups and performed spearman correlation to explore the association between neurotransmitter expression and functional network gradient-based alternations in PD. …”
