Growth form and lifespan of herbaceous species mediate the role of traits in short-term drought response

Using 63 globally distributed grassland and shrubland sites from the International Drought Experiment, this study identified plant traits linked to drought resistance after 1 year of extreme drought across growth forms, lifespans and climate.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals immune suppression and cell states predictive of patient outcomes in rhabdomyosarcoma

The cellular differentiation states of paediatric rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) remain to be explored. Here, single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of RMS tumours reveals an immunosuppressive microenvironment and distinct transcriptional programs predictive of patient outcomes.

Protein-altering variants associated with body mass index implicate pathways that control energy intake and expenditure in obesity

Exome-wide analysis identifies rare and low-frequency coding variants associated with body mass index. Gene-based meta-analysis and functional studies implicate 13 genes, eight of which are novel, and neuronal pathways as factors in human obesity.

Targeting the tumour stroma to improve cancer therapy

The tumour stroma is a component of the tumour microenvironment and has crucial roles in tumour initiation, progression, and metastasis. Most anticancer therapies target cancer cells specifically, but the tumour stroma can promote resistance to such therapies. Herein, the authors provide an overview of the complex cancer cell–tumour stroma interactions and discuss how novel treatment strategies should combine anticancer and antistromal agents.
