- CancerNet: a unified deep learning network for pan‑cancer diagnostics
- Article states that despite remarkable advances in cancer research, cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The author's proposed framework for cancer diagnostics detects cancers and their tissues of origin using a unified model of cancers encompassing 33 cancers represented in The Cancer Genome Atlas. Their model exploits the learned features of different cancers reflected in the respective dysregulated epigenomes, holding a great promise in early cancer detection.

- This article describes a facile one-step method to synthesize stable collodial gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) loaded with a combination of two anticancer therapeutics, -bleomycin and doxorubicin
- Hypoxia-induced reprogramming of the cardiac phenotype in American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) revealed by quantitative proteomics
- Article describes study which tested if targeted and persistent changes in steady-state protein expression underlie this hypoxic heart phenotype, using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomics.
- Interpolative multidimensional scaling techniques for the identification of clusters in very large sequence sets
- This article discusses interpolative multidimensional scaling techniques for the identification of clusters in very large sequence sets.
- Mediterranean Spur-Thighed Tortoises (Testudo graeca) Have Optimal Speeds at Which They Can Minimise the Metabolic Cost of Transport, on a Treadmill
- Article experimentally quantifies the metabolic cost of transport in Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoises walking on a treadmill while also quantifying the kinematics of their movement. Results found that tortoises move more efficiently than predicted and presents the first data demonstrating a curvilinear cost of transport over their speed range. The authors conclude that tortoises have an optimum speed at which they move to minimise their metabolic cost of locomotion.

- Article discussing the microbial communities in male first catch urine and how these are highly similar to those paired in urethral swab specimens.
- Multifeature analyses of vascular cambial cells reveal longevity mechanisms in old Ginkgo biloba trees
- This article investigates age-related changes in Ginkgo biloba trees to learn more about the molecular and metabolic mechanisms underlying their longevity. The results revealed that long-lived trees have evolved compensatory mechanisms to maintain a balance between growth and aging processes.
- Natural variation and improved genome annotation of the emerging biofuel crop field pennycress
- Article describing pennycress genome annotation improvements using a combination of long- and short-read transcriptome data obtained from RNA derived from embryos of 22 accessions, in addition to public genome and gene expression information.
- p63 and SOX2 Dictate Glucose Reliance and Metabolic Vulnerabilities in Squamous Cell Carcinomas
- Article identifies exceptional glucose reliance among squamous cell carcinomas (SCC)s dictated by hyperactive GLUT1-mediated glucose influx.
- Parental hypoxic exposure confers offspring hypoxia resistance in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

- Phosphorus deprivation affects composition and spatial distribution of membrane lipids in legume nodules
- Article assessing membrane lipids in M. truncatula tissues using electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry. The results suggest that specific PC species may be differentially important in diverse nodule zones and cell types, and that membrane lipid remodeling during P stress is not uniform across the nodule.

- Using Machine Learning to Predict Genes Underlying Differentiation of Multipartite and Unipartite Traits in Bacteria
- Article describes how, since the discovery of the second chromosome in the Rhodobacter spaeroides 2.4.1 in 1989 and the revelation of gene sequences, multipartite genomes have been reported in over three hundred bacterial species under nine different phyla. In this study, the authors have attempted to leverage machine learning as a means to identify the genetic factors that underlie the differentiation of bacteria with multipartite and unipartite genomes.
