LGR5 is a conserved marker of hair follicle stem cells in multiple species and is present early and throughout follicle morphogenesis
SCIENTIFIC REPORTS, 12(1).
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Genetically Modified; Biomarkers / metabolism; Hair Follicle / metabolism; Humans; Morphogenesis; Receptors, G-Protein-Coupled / genetics; Receptors, G-Protein-Coupled / metabolism; Skin; Stem Cells / metabolism; Swine
topics (OpenAlex): Hair Growth and Disorders; Cancer and Skin Lesions; Skin and Cellular Biology Research
TL;DR:
It is demonstrated that LGR5 is a marker of hair follicle stem cells across species in homeostasis and development and the strong similarities and important differences in expression patterns, gene expression profiles, and developmental processes between species are reported.

Characterizing the Effects of Synergistic Thermal and Photo-Cross-Linking during Biofabrication on the Structural and Functional Properties of Gelatin Methacryloyl (GeIMA) Hydrogels
ACS BIOMATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING, 7(11), 5175–5188.
author keywords: GelMA; thermo-reversible cross-linking; photo-cross-linking; biofabrication; tissue engineering; CryoSEM; qPCR
MeSH headings : Biocompatible Materials; Gelatin; Humans; Hydrogels; Methacrylates; Tissue Engineering
topics (OpenAlex): Additive Manufacturing and 3D Printing Technologies; 3D Printing in Biomedical Research; Collagen: Extraction and Characterization
TL;DR:
The finding that hydrogels processed at higher temperature possessed lower structural fidelity but resulted in more cell elongation and greater anisotropy over time demonstrate the significant impact of GelMA material formulation and processing conditions on the structural and functional properties of the hydrogel.

In Vitro Validation of Transgene Expression in Gene-Edited Pias Using CRISPR Transcriptional Activators
CRISPR JOURNAL, 3(5), 409–418.
MeSH headings : Animals; Animals, Genetically Modified / genetics; CRISPR-Associated Protein 9 / genetics; CRISPR-Associated Protein 9 / metabolism; Cells, Cultured; Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats; Gene Editing / methods; Gene Expression; Nuclear Transfer Techniques; RNA, Guide, Kinetoplastida / genetics; RNA, Guide, Kinetoplastida / metabolism; Swine; Trans-Activators / genetics; Trans-Activators / metabolism; Transgenes
topics (OpenAlex): CRISPR and Genetic Engineering; Animal Genetics and Reproduction; Virus-based gene therapy research
TL;DR:
It is shown that CRISPR-dCas9 transcriptional activators can be used to validate functional transgene insertion in nonexpressing easily cultured cells such as fibroblasts and is a tool that could be used across disciplines and animal species to save time and resources by verifying expected outcomes of gene edits before generating live animals.

High mobility group A2 (HMGA2) deficiency in pigs leads to dwarfism, abnormal fetal resource allocation, and cryptorchidism
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 115(21), 5420–5425.
author keywords: HMGA2; dwarfism; swine; gene editing; organ size
MeSH headings : Animals; Cryptorchidism / etiology; Cryptorchidism / pathology; Dwarfism / etiology; Dwarfism / pathology; Female; Fetal Diseases / etiology; Fetal Diseases / pathology; Genotype; HMGA2 Protein / deficiency; HMGA2 Protein / genetics; Litter Size; Male; Nuclear Transfer Techniques / veterinary; Pregnancy; Reproduction; Swine; Swine Diseases / etiology; Swine Diseases / pathology
topics (OpenAlex): Animal Genetics and Reproduction; Cancer-related molecular mechanisms research; Genetic and phenotypic traits in livestock
TL;DR:
The results show that the effect of HMGA2 with respect to growth regulation is highly conserved among mammals and opens up the possibility of regulating body and organ size in a variety of mammalian species including food and companion animals.

Lack of genomic imprinting of DNA primase, polypeptide 2 (PRIM2) in human term placenta and white blood cells
EPIGENETICS, 7(5), 429–431.
author keywords: genomic imprinting; PRIM2; pseudogene; placenta; WBC; SNP; sequencing
MeSH headings : Alleles; DNA Primase / genetics; DNA Primase / metabolism; DNA Replication; Databases, Nucleic Acid; Female; Gene Frequency; Genetic Loci; Genome, Human; Genomic Imprinting; Heterozygote; Humans; Leukocytes / cytology; Leukocytes / enzymology; Molecular Sequence Annotation; Placenta / cytology; Placenta / enzymology; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Pregnancy; Pseudogenes; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA, Messenger / metabolism; Transcription, Genetic
topics (OpenAlex): Genetic Syndromes and Imprinting; Prenatal Screening and Diagnostics; Epigenetics and DNA Methylation
TL;DR:
It is reported here their failure to confirm imprinting of the PRIM2 locus in human placenta or WBC, and the discordance between results and those of others is likely due to an incorrectly annotatedPRIM2 pseudogene found in the human genome database.
