Abstract Deceased donor liver transplantation (LT) is a crucial lifesaving option for patients with end-stage liver diseases. Although donation after brain death (DBD) remains the main source of donated organs, exploration of donation after circulatory death (DCD) addresses donor scarcity but introduces challenges due to warm ischemia. While technical advances have improved outcomes, challenges persist, […]

Abstract Tissue resident memory CD8+ T cells (Trm) are poised for immediate reactivation at sites of pathogen entry and provide optimal protection of mucosal surfaces. The intestinal tract represents a portal of entry for many infectious agents; however, to date specific strategies to enhance Trm responses at this site are lacking. Here, we present TMDI (Transient

Abstract Obesity is a major public health challenge. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) and bariatric surgery (BS) are effective weight loss interventions; however, the genetic factors influencing treatment response remain largely unexplored. Moreover, most previous studies have focused on race and ethnicity rather than genetic ancestry. Here we analyzed 10,960 individuals from 9 multiancestry biobank

Abstract Weight loss significantly improves metabolic and cardiovascular health in people with obesity1,2,3. The remodelling of adipose tissue (AT) is central to these varied and important clinical effects4. However, surprisingly little is known about the underlying mechanisms, presenting a barrier to treatment advances. Here we report a spatially resolved single-nucleus atlas (comprising 171,247 cells from 70

Abstract Polygenic scores (PGSs) for body mass index (BMI) may guide early prevention and targeted treatment of obesity. Using genetic data from up to 5.1 million people (4.6% African ancestry, 14.4% American ancestry, 8.4% East Asian ancestry, 71.1% European ancestry and 1.5% South Asian ancestry) from the GIANT consortium and 23andMe, Inc., we developed ancestry-specific
