Zodasiran for cholesterol and triglyceride lowering in patients with hyperlipidemia: final report of phase 1 basket trial

Nature Medicine, Published online: 07 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41591-026-04307-8

In a phase 1 basket trial, the small interfering RNA zodasiran, targeting ANGPTL3, lowered triglycerides in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia and lowered both triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia.

Evidence of monkeypox virus clade IIb lineage A.2.2 in the Republic of the Congo and co-circulation of clade Ia, Ib and clade IIb

Nature Medicine, Published online: 03 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41591-026-04256-2

Whole-genome phylogenetic analyses have identified a case of monkeypox virus clade IIb lineage in the Republic of the Congo and co-circulation of three clade lineages, emphasizing the importance of improved surveillance given the risk of possible recombination events in the future.

Cell-type-specific transposon demethylation and TAD remodeling in aging mouse brain

A multi-omic single-cell atlas of the aging mouse brain reveals cell-type-specific transposon methylation changes, strengthening of 3D genome boundaries, and regionally heterogeneous aging signatures. These findings offer a resource to understand the molecular mechanisms of brain aging and guide future research on neurodegeneration.

Nuclear speckles enable processing of RNA from GC-rich isochores

Nuclear speckles are key subnuclear structures that regulate gene expression in GC-rich regions. This work shows that the evolution and expansion of core speckle proteins were crucial for the increased GC content seen in amniote genomes.

Developmental organization of sensory and sympathetic ganglia

Nature, Published online: 01 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10313-0

Findings suggest that neural crest fate bias predominantly emerges within the neural tube, and that only a minor subset of delaminated progenitors retain multipotency to generate both sensory and sympathetic derivatives.

Expansion of outer cortical CUX2 neurons requires adaptations for DNA repair

Nature, Published online: 01 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10290-4

The transcription factor ATF4 is shown to regulate double-stranded DNA repair within vulnerable CUX2+ upper-layer 2/3 cortical neurons, enabling their survival during development.
