To address this, we recently developed the Latent Ewald Summation (LES) method, which infers electrostatic interactions, polarization, and Born effective charges (BECs), just by learning from energy and force training data. Here, we present LES as a standalone library, compatible with any short-range MLIP, and demonstrate its integration with methods such as MACE, NequIP, Allegro, CACE, CHGNet, and UMA. We benchmark LES-enhanced models on distinct systems, including bulk water, polar dipeptides, and gold dimer adsorption on defective substrates, and show that LES not only captures correct electrostatics but also improves accuracy. Additionally, we scale LES to large and chemically diverse data by training MACELES-OFF on the SPICE set containing molecules and clusters, making a universal MLIP with electrostatics for organic systems, including biomolecules. MACELES-OFF is more accurate than its short-range counterpart (MACE-OFF) trained on the same data set, predicts dipoles and BECs reliably, and has better descriptions of bulk liquids. By enabling efficient long-range electrostatics without directly training on electrical properties, LES paves the way for electrostatic foundation MLIPs.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["1549-9618"],"eissn":["1549-9626"]},"doi":"10.1021/acs.jctc.5c01400","acknowledgement":"Research reported in this publication was supported by the National Institute Of General Medical Sciences of the National Institutes of Health under Award Number R35GM159986.

Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) offer an efficient and scalable alternative to quantum mechanical methods, but do not by themselves incorporate electrical response. Here, we show that polarization and Born effective charge (BEC) tensors can be directly extracted from long-range MLIPs within the Latent Ewald Summation (LES) framework, solely by learning from energy and force data. Using this approach, we predict the infrared spectra of bulk water under zero or finite external electric fields, ionic conductivities of high-pressure superionic ice, and the phase transition and hysteresis in ferroelectric PbTiO3 perovskite.

Recent predictions show an unusual decrease in thermal conductivity (κ) with temperature in amorphous hafnia (a-HfO2), contrasting with the typical trend in glasses. Using molecular dynamics with a machine-learning-based neuroevolution potential, we compute κ of a-HfO2 from 50 K to 2000 K. At low temperatures, the Wigner transport equation captures both anharmonicity and quantum statistics. Above 1200 K, atomic diffusion invalidates the quasiparticle picture, and we resort to the Green–Kubo method to capture convective transport. We further extend the Wigner transport equation to supercooled a-HfO2, revealing the crucial role of low-frequency modes in facilitating heat transport.

Despite this, representations of orbitals in deep learning models have been very underdeveloped relative to representations of molecular geometries and Hamiltonians. Here, we apply state-of-the-art equivariant deep learning architectures to the task of assigning global labels to orbitals, namely energies characterizations, given the molecular coefficients from Hartree–Fock or density functional theory. The architecture we have developed, the Cartesian Equivariant Orbital Network (CEONET), shows how molecular orbital coefficients are readily featurized as equivariant node features common to all graph-based machine-learned potentials. We find that CEONET performs well at predicting difficult quantitative labels such as the orbital energy and orbital entropy. Furthermore, we find that the CEONET representation provides an intuitive latent space for differentiating orbital character for the qualitative assignment of e.g. bonding or antibonding character. In addition to providing a useful representation for further integrating deep learning with electronic structure theory, we expect CEONET to be useful for automatizing and interpreting the results of advanced electronic structure methods such as complete active space self-consistent field theory. In particular, the ability of CEONET to infer multireference character via the orbital entropy paves the way toward the machine-learned selection of active spaces."}],"tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by_nc_nd.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)","short":"CC BY-NC-ND (4.0)"},"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2510235122","external_id":{"pmid":["41269783"]},"researchdata_availability":"no","publication_status":"published","department":[{"_id":"BiCh"}],"user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","oa_version":"Published Version","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","date_updated":"2026-08-07T10:27:53Z","article_number":"e2510235122","publisher":"National Academy of Sciences","ddc":["540"],"das_tickbox":"1","_id":"20702","publication":"Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences","scopus_import":"1","intvolume":"       122","date_created":"2025-11-30T23:02:06Z","oa":1,"has_accepted_license":"1","article_type":"original","author":[{"full_name":"King, Daniel S.","last_name":"King","first_name":"Daniel S."},{"full_name":"Grzenda, Daniel","last_name":"Grzenda","first_name":"Daniel"},{"last_name":"Zhu","first_name":"Ray","full_name":"Zhu, Ray"},{"first_name":"Nathaniel","last_name":"Hudson","full_name":"Hudson, Nathaniel"},{"full_name":"Foster, Ian","last_name":"Foster","first_name":"Ian"},{"full_name":"Cheng, Bingqing","orcid":"0000-0002-3584-9632","first_name":"Bingqing","last_name":"Cheng","id":"cbe3cda4-d82c-11eb-8dc7-8ff94289fcc9"},{"last_name":"Gagliardi","first_name":"Laura","full_name":"Gagliardi, Laura"}],"title":"Cartesian equivariant representations for learning and understanding molecular orbitals","pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","volume":122,"OA_type":"hybrid","OA_place":"publisher","related_material":{"link":[{"url":"https://github.com/GagliardiGroup/CEONet ","relation":"software"}]},"date_published":"2025-12-02T00:00:00Z","corr_author":"1","file":[{"file_size":27607870,"success":1,"file_id":"20719","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","checksum":"58051539a884c7a97306fd3afdb539ac","creator":"dernst","file_name":"2025_PNAS_King.pdf","content_type":"application/pdf","date_created":"2025-12-01T08:41:32Z","date_updated":"2025-12-01T08:41:32Z"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}]},{"supplementarymaterial":"no","month":"10","citation":{"ista":"Tuo P, Zeng Z, Chen J, Cheng B. 2025.

This approach enables a single model to sample free energy surfaces over a wide temperature range with minimal training overhead, and the model generation is scalable to larger lattice sizes than those in the training set. We demonstrate our approach on the 2D Ising model, showing efficient and reliable free energy sampling. These results highlight the potential of flow matching for low-cost, scalable free energy sampling in discrete systems and suggest promising extensions to alchemical degrees of freedom in crystalline materials.

However, our knowledge about the safe usage of anti-inflammatory drugs during pregnancy is still limited. While human induced pluripotent stem cells (hIPSC)-derived brain organoid models have started to explore functional consequences upon viral stimulation, these models commonly lack microglia, which are susceptible to and promote inflammation. Furthermore, microglia are actively involved in neuronal development. Here, we generate hIPSC-derived microglia precursor cells and assemble them into retinal organoids. Once the outer plexiform layer forms, these hIPSC-derived microglia (iMG) fully integrate into the retinal organoids. Since the ganglion cell survival declines by this time in 3D-retinal organoids, we adapted the model into 2D and identify that the improved ganglion cell number significantly decreases only with iMG presence. In parallel, we applied the immunostimulant POLY(I:C) to mimic a fetal viral infection. While POLY(I:C) exposure alters the iMG phenotype, it does not hinder their interaction with ganglion cells. Furthermore, iMG significantly enhance the supernatant’s inflammatory secretome and increase retinal cell proliferation. Simultaneous exposure with the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen dampens POLY(I:C)-mediated changes of the iMG phenotype and ameliorates cell proliferation. Remarkably, while POLY(I:C) disrupts neuronal calcium dynamics independent of iMG, ibuprofen rescues this effect only if iMG are present. Mechanistically, ibuprofen targets the enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (COX1/PTGS1 and COX2/PTGS2) simultaneously, from which iMG mainly express COX1. Selective COX1 blockage fails to restore the calcium peak amplitude upon POLY(I:C) stimulation, suggesting ibuprofen’s beneficial effect depends on the presence and interplay of COX1 and COX2. These findings underscore the importance of microglia in the context of prenatal immune challenges and provide insight into the mechanisms by which ibuprofen exerts its protective effects during embryonic development."}],"issue":"1","external_id":{"isi":["001459311800002"],"pmid":["40181459"]},"fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s12974-025-03366-x","department":[{"_id":"SaSi"}],"publication_status":"published","oa_version":"Published

immune challenges pose significant risks to human embryonic brain and eye development. However, we still lack knowledge about the safe usage of anti-inflammatory drugs during pregnancy. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hIPSC)-derived brain organoid models provide a unique opportunity to investigate neuronal development and have started to explore functional consequences upon viral infection. However, brain organoids usually lack microglia, the brain-resident immune cells. They are present in the early human embryonic brain and actively participate in neuronal circuit development. At the same time, microglia are known for their immune-sensing properties and will influence viral-mediated effects. In my thesis, I was interested to study the multifunctional role of human microglia during retinal development. \r\nIn chapter 1, I characterize the innate occurrence of IBA1+-microglia-like cells within the retinal organoid differentiation (Bartalska et al., 2022). Therefore, we differentiate hIPSC using an unguided retinal organoid differentiation protocol and observe the presence of IBA1+-microglia-like cells alongside retinal cups between week 3 and 4 in 2.5D culture. However, instead of infiltrating the neuroectodermal sides, they enrich within non-pigmented, 3D-cystic compartments that develop in low numbers parallel to 3D-retinal organoids. To enrich for IBA1+-microglia precursors (preMG), we guided the differentiation with a low-dosed BMP4 application, which prevents retinal cup development and enhances microglia and 3D-cysts formation. We characterize the differentiated preMG for their microglia-like identity and validated their functionality. In parallel, mass spectrometry identifies the 3D-cysts to express mesenchymal and epithelial markers. We confirm that comparable 3D-cysts are also the preferential environment for IBA1+-microglia-like cells within the unguided retinal organoid differentiation. \r\nIn chapter 2, I investigate how microglia influence retinal development and whether they contribute to viral-mediated consequences (Schmied et al., 2025). Here, we assemble preMG, which we have characterized in chapter 1, into 3D-retinal organoids. Once the outer plexiform layer forms, microglia-like cells (iMG) populate them and interact with retinal cell types. However, at this developmental stage, the ganglion cell number decreases in 3D-retinal organoids. Thus, we adapted the model into 2D which promotes their survival. Integrated iMG engulf ganglion cells and control their cell number. In parallel, we apply the immunostimulant POLY(I:C) to mimic a fetal viral infection. Although POLY(I:C) stimulation affects iMG phenotype, it does not influence their interaction with ganglion cells. Furthermore, iMG presence significantly contributes to the supernatant’s inflammatory secretome and increases retinal cell proliferation. Simultaneous exposure to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ibuprofen dampens POLY(I:C)-mediated consequences of the iMG phenotype and ameliorates cell proliferation. Remarkably, while POLY(I:C) disrupts neuronal calcium dynamics independent of iMG presence, ibuprofen rescues this effect only in the presence of iMG. Mechanistically, ibuprofen blocks the enzymes cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 (COX1/ PTGS1 and COX2/ PTGS2) simultaneously, from which iMG predominantly express COX1. Selective inhibition of COX1 does not restore the calcium peak amplitude upon POLY(I:C) stimulation, indicating ibuprofen’s effect depends on the presence and interplay of both, COX1 and COX2. \r\nIn summary, we characterized the 3D-retinal organoid model for the occurrence of IBA1+-microglia like cells. As the innately developing IBA1+-cells enrich in mesenchymal over retinal structures, we optimized a protocol to differentiate IBA1+-microglia precursors. By combining these two models we generate microglia-assembled retinal organoids. Our results underscore the importance of microglia during neurodevelopment, in the context of prenatal immune challenges and provide insight into the mechanisms by which ibuprofen exerts its protective effects during embryonic development.","lang":"eng"}],"tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"type":"dissertation","day":"24","file_date_updated":"2025-07-30T09:29:09Z","month":"07","citation":{"chicago":"Schmied, Verena. “Human Microglia Impact Neuronal Development in Retinal Organoids.” Institute of Science and Technology Austria, 2025. <a href=\"https://doi.org/10.15479/AT-ISTA-20074\">https://doi.org/10.15479/AT-ISTA-20074</a>.","mla":"Schmied, Verena. <i>Human Microglia Impact Neuronal Development in Retinal Organoids</i>.

The safety-liveness classification of boolean properties characterizes whether a given property can be falsified by observing a finite prefix of an infinite computation trace (always for safety, never for liveness). In the quantitative setting, properties are arbitrary functions from infinite words to partially-ordered domains. Extending this paradigm to the quantitative domain, where properties are arbitrary functions mapping infinite words to partially-ordered domains, we introduce and study the notions of quantitative safety and liveness. First, we formally define quantitative safety and liveness, and prove that our definitions induce conservative quantitative generalizations of both the safety-progress hierarchy and the safety-liveness decomposition of boolean properties. Consequently, like their boolean counterparts, quantitative properties can be min-decomposed into safety and liveness parts, or alternatively, max-decomposed into co-safety and co-liveness parts. We further establish a connection between quantitative safety and topological continuity and provide alternative characterizations of quantitative safety and liveness in terms of their boolean analogs. Second, we instantiate our framework with the specific classes of quantitative properties expressed by automata. These quantitative automata contain finitely many states and rational-valued transition weights, and their common value functions Inf, Sup, LimInf, LimSup, LimInfAvg, LimSupAvg, and DSum map infinite words into the totally-ordered domain of real numbers. For all common value functions, we provide a procedure for deciding whether a given automaton is safe or live, we show how to construct its safety closure, and we present a min-decomposition into safe and live automata."}],"tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"status":"public","acknowledgement":"This work was supported in part by the ERC-2020-AdG 101020093 and the Israel Science Foundation grant 2410/22.

While the biophysics community has productively engaged with the first two, addressing information flows has been more challenging, with some scattered success in evolutionary theory and a more coherent track record in neuroscience. Nevertheless, interdisciplinary work of the past two decades at the interface of biophysics, quantitative biology, and engineering has led to an emerging mathematical language for describing information flows at the molecular scale. This is where the central processes of life unfold: from detection and transduction of environmental signals to the readout or copying of genetic information and the triggering of adaptive cellular responses. Such processes are coordinated by complex biochemical reaction networks that operate at room temperature, are out of equilibrium, and use low copy numbers of diverse molecular species with limited interaction specificity. Here we review how flows of information through biochemical networks can be formalized using information-theoretic quantities, quantified from data, and computed within various modeling frameworks.

Yet how the temporal and spatial regulations of cell behaviors are interconnected during embryonic development remains elusive. To address this, we turned to zebrafish gastrulation, the process whereby dynamic cell behaviors generate the three principal germ layers of the early embryo. Here, we show that Hoxb cluster genes are expressed in a temporally collinear manner at the blastoderm margin, where mesodermal and endodermal (mesendoderm) progenitor cells are specified and ingress to form mesendoderm/hypoblast. Functional analysis shows that these Hoxb genes regulate the timing of cell ingression: under- or overexpression of Hoxb genes perturb the timing of mesendoderm cell ingression and, consequently, the positioning of these cells along the forming anterior-posterior body axis after gastrulation. Finally, we found that Hoxb genes control the timing of mesendoderm ingression by regulating cellular bleb formation and cell surface fluctuations in the ingressing cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that Hoxb genes interconnect the temporal and spatial pattern of cell behaviors during zebrafish gastrulation by controlling cell surface fluctuations.","lang":"eng"}]},{"month":"10","supplementarymaterial":"no","citation":{"short":"T.D.

As science advances, nature-inspired materials are becoming part of our lives. Animate materials, characterized by their activity, adaptability, and autonomy, emulate properties of living systems. While only biological materials fully embody these principles, artificial versions are advancing rapidly, promising transformative impacts in the circular economy, health and climate resilience within a generation. This roadmap presents authoritative perspectives on animate materials across different disciplines and scales, highlighting their interdisciplinary nature and potential applications in diverse fields including nanotechnology, robotics and the built environment. It underscores the need for concerted efforts to address shared challenges such as complexity management, scalability, evolvability, interdisciplinary collaboration, and ethical and environmental considerations. The framework defined by classifying materials based on their level of animacy can guide this emerging field to encourage cooperation and responsible development. By unravelling the mysteries of living matter and leveraging its principles, we can design materials and systems that will transform our world in a more sustainable manner.","lang":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1088/1361-648X/adebd3","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0953-8984"],"eissn":["1361-648X"]},"acknowledgement":"Living Architecture is Funded by the EU Horizon 2020 Future Emerging Technologies Open programme (2016–2019) Grant Agreement 686585 a consortium of 6 collaborating institutions—Newcastle University, University of Trento, University of the West of England, Spanish National Research Council, Explora Biotech and Liquifer Systems Group.\r\n\r\nThe Active Living Infrastructure: Controlled Environment (ALICE) project is funded by an EU Innovation Award for the development of a bio-digital ‘brick’ prototype, a collaboration between Newcastle University, Translating Nature, and the University of the West of England (2019–2021) under EU Grant Agreement No. 851246.\r\n\r\nMicrobial Hydroponics: Circular Sustainable Electrobiosynthesis (Mi-Hy) is Funded by the European Union under Grant Agreement Number 101114746, which is a collaboration between Beneficiaries, KU Leuven (Belgium), the University of Southampton (UK), SONY Computer Science Laboratory (France), BioFaction KG (Austria), Spanish National Research Council (Spain), and Associated Partners, the University of the West of England (UK) and University of Southampton (UK).

In this work, we derive the non-linear magnetotropic susceptibility expressions for FePS3 in both ac*-and bc*-planes using complementary approaches: by taking the first derivative of torque and through the formal calculation of the magnetotropic susceptibility. Higher-order terms in the magnetization are included, and the final equations are obtained by applying symmetry constraints imposed by the C2h point group of the material. We analyze the behavior of the resulting non-linear expressions and identify the contributions of each parameter.

Does the ability to reproduce through a combination of asexual and sexual modes offer an evolutionary advantage over relying on either mode alone? Here, we introduce an empirically driven theoretical model to examine the dynamics and interplay between sexual and asexual reproduction in stick insect populations. We analyse it using a novel phase transition approach and corroborate it using published experimental data. We find that the presence of males can either increase or decrease the overall population size. However, maintaining an optimal ratio of parthenogenetic to sexual reproduction is crucial for male resilience, effectively delaying male extinction. Conversely, extreme levels of parthenogenetic reproduction—whether too high or too low—can lead to male extinction, emphasizing the need for a balanced number of virgin females to ensure the persistence of males. Our model also explains male absence in Carausius morosus and persistence in Extatosoma tiaratum. Our findings provide valuable insights into the interplay of reproductive strategies and contribute to broader discussions on the transitions between sexual and asexual reproduction.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","acknowledgement":"We acknowledge Prof. Uri Alon for introducing us to the topic of systems biology during the graduate course at the Weizmann Institute of Science, whose insights and teachings have greatly inspired this work.","year":"2025","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1742-5662"],"issn":["1742-5689"]},"doi":"10.1098/rsif.2025.0202","pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","OA_type":"closed access","volume":22,"title":"Interplay of asexual and sexual reproduction in bifunctional insects","author":[{"full_name":"Ayalon, Oran","last_name":"Ayalon","first_name":"Oran"},{"id":"876b6b34-8ff4-11ec-97c9-8d95a7aae416","first_name":"Harikrishnan","last_name":"Rajendran","full_name":"Rajendran, Harikrishnan"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_published":"2025-08-13T00:00:00Z","corr_author":"1","publisher":"Royal Society","isi":1,"date_created":"2025-08-24T22:01:30Z","article_type":"original","_id":"20219","publication":"Journal of the Royal Society Interface","scopus_import":"1","intvolume":"        22"},{"date_published":"2025-05-23T00:00:00Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"title":"Early indirect neurogenesis transitions to late direct neurogenesis in mouse cerebral cortex development","author":[{"first_name":"Adrián","last_name":"Cárdenas","full_name":"Cárdenas, Adrián"},{"full_name":"Çelik, Irem","last_name":"Çelik","first_name":"Irem"},{"first_name":"Alexandre","last_name":"Espinós","full_name":"Espinós, Alexandre"},{"full_name":"Streicher, Carmen","first_name":"Carmen","last_name":"Streicher","id":"36BCB99C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"López-González","first_name":"Lara","full_name":"López-González, Lara"},{"last_name":"del-Valle-Anton","first_name":"Lucia","full_name":"del-Valle-Anton, Lucia"},{"first_name":"Virginia","last_name":"Fernández","full_name":"Fernández, Virginia"},{"full_name":"Amin, Salma","first_name":"Salma","last_name":"Amin"},{"full_name":"Negri, Enrico","last_name":"Negri","first_name":"Enrico"},{"full_name":"Ortuño, Eduardo Fernández","last_name":"Ortuño","first_name":"Eduardo Fernández"},{"first_name":"Simon","last_name":"Hippenmeyer","id":"37B36620-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Hippenmeyer, Simon","orcid":"0000-0003-2279-1061"},{"last_name":"Borrell","first_name":"Víctor","full_name":"Borrell, Víctor"}],"OA_type":"green","OA_place":"repository","_id":"19762","publication":"bioRxiv","oa":1,"date_created":"2025-05-29T10:45:55Z","project":[{"name":"Stem Cell Modulation in Neural Development and Regeneration/ P05-Molecular Mechanisms of Neural Stem Cell Lineage Progression","grant_number":"F7805","_id":"059F6AB4-7A3F-11EA-A408-12923DDC885E"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","oa_version":"Preprint","article_processing_charge":"No","date_updated":"2026-08-13T07:18:38Z","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.22.655488","external_id":{"biorxivid":["10.1101/2025.05.22.655488"]},"publication_status":"submitted","department":[{"_id":"SiHi"}],"status":"public","acknowledgement":"We thank A.

Accordingly, neurogenesis requires precise regulation along development. Cortical neurons are made either directly by Radial Glia Cells (RGCs) that self- consume, or indirectly from RGCs via Intermediate Progenitor Cells (IPCs) and largely preserving the RGC pool. According to the standing model of cortical development, Direct Neurogenesis predominates at early stages of development, and progressively shifts to Indirect Neurogenesis, which predominates at late stages. However, neurogenesis at early stages should be compatible with RGC amplification, and neurogenesis at late stages needs to involve RGC consumption, which seems in conflict with the standing model. Here we studied the modes of neurogenesis along cortical development using multiple approaches, including birthdating, live imaging and MADM clone labeling. Contrary to the established dogma, our data show that Indirect Neurogenesis clearly predominates at early developmental stages, gradually shifting to Direct Neurogenesis at late stages. These findings challenge the current model of cortical neurogenesis, and prompt a re-evaluation of previous and ongoing work about the genetic and molecular mechanisms regulating this process.","lang":"eng"}],"tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by_nc_nd.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)","short":"CC BY-NC-ND (4.0)"},"type":"preprint","day":"23","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.22.655488","open_access":"1"}],"biorxivid":1,"month":"05","citation":{"chicago":"Cárdenas, Adrián, Irem Çelik, Alexandre Espinós, Carmen Streicher, Lara López-González, Lucia del-Valle-Anton, Virginia Fernández, et al. “Early Indirect Neurogenesis Transitions to Late Direct Neurogenesis in Mouse Cerebral Cortex Development.” <i>BioRxiv</i>, n.d. <a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.22.655488\">https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.22.655488</a>.","mla":"Cárdenas, Adrián, et al. “Early Indirect Neurogenesis Transitions to Late Direct Neurogenesis in Mouse Cerebral Cortex Development.” <i>BioRxiv</i>, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.22.655488\">10.1101/2025.05.22.655488</a>.","short":"A.

Herein, we combine Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers (MADM)-based clonal analysis at embryonic days 12.5 and 13.5 with early postnatal callosal tracing to reveal a lineage progression that challenges the inside-outside model of cortical development and the conventional view of an invariable sequence of asymmetric neurogenic divisions. Our data demonstrate that early multipotent RGPs generate all extra-telencephalic (ET) and intra-telencephalic (IT) PNs across all layers through parallel sublineages and the random specification, during the earliest neurogenic divisions, of fate-restricted daughter RGPs. While the neuronal production of the parental multipotent RGPs consists of small ET-PN or IT-PN outputs, fate-restricted RGPs produce larger translaminar outputs spanning deep and upper layers of only IT-PNs, the predominant mammalian PN subtype. We further show that the emergence of IT-PN fate-restricted RGPs also leads to quantitatively and temporally stereotyped neurogenesis population-wise.","lang":"eng"}],"oa":1,"date_created":"2025-05-20T10:19:29Z"}]
