To read the full abstract: Nature 2017;547:419Since the identification of DNA methylation as a master regulator of genomic imprinting more than 20 years ago, it has been the only known mammalian germline imprinting mark. However, recent studies have identified several imprinted genes capable of maintaining paternal allele-specific expression in the absence of oocyte DNA methylation. Here, t...

Cell Stem Cell. 2022 Feb 3;29(2):328-343.e5. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2021.11.009. PMID: 34879244.Brief Summary: By applying single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to 112,376 cells of human hypothalamus ranging from 7–20 gestational weeks (GW7–20), the authors produced a spatiotemporal transcriptome atlas of human hypothalamus development and revealed critical regulatory genes control...
