Dysregulation of the Pdx1/Ovol2/Zeb2 axis in dedifferentiated β-cells triggers the induction of genes associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition in diabetes by de Jesus, Daniel S., Mak, Tracy C. S., Wang, Yi-Fang, von Ohlen, Yorrick, Bai, Ying, Kane, Eva, Chabosseau, Pauline, Chahrour, Catherine M., Distaso, Walter, Salem, Victoria, Tomas, Alejandra, Stoffel, Markus, Rutter, Guy A., Latreille, Mathieu

“…We previouslyshowed that increased miR-7 levels triggerb-cell dedifferentiation and diabetes. We usedb-cell-specific miR-7 overexpressing mice (Tg7) to testthe hypothesis that loss ofb-cell identity triggered by miR-7 overexpression alters islet gene expression and islet microenvironment in diabetes.Methods:We performed bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in islets obtained fromb-cell-specific miR-7 overexpressing mice(Tg7). …”

One level density of low-lying zeros of families of L-functions by Gao, Peng, Zhao, Liangyi

“…In this paper, we prove some one level density results for the low-lying zeros of families of L- functions. More specifically, the families under consideration are that of L-functions of holomorphic Hecke eigenforms of level 1 and weight k twisted with quadratic Dirichlet characters and that of cubic and quartic Dirichlet L-functions.…”
