Purpose: To determine if melatonin-enriched culture media could offset loss of imprinting in mouse concepti.
Methods: Zygotes were cultured to blastocyst stage under optimized conditions in melatonin-supplemented media at either 10 M (MT 10) or 10 M (MT 10), or without supplementation (Culture + embryo transfer, or ET, positive control). Blastocysts were also developed in vivo (ET negative control).

A compound marker integrates two or more genetic markers into a single assay. The application of compound markers enhances the predictive accuracy of genetic testing by leveraging the strengths of different genetic variations while mitigating the limitations of individual markers. Compound markers include SNP-SNPs, SNP-STRs, DIP-SNPs, DIP-STRs, Multi-In/Dels, CpG-SNPs, CpG-STRs/CpG-In/Del, and Methylation-Microhaplotypes.

Short Tandem Repeats (STRs) are the standard technique used in forensic genetics for individual identification due to their high polymorphism and robustness. Although Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) enables the analysis of many STRs, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) offers enhanced resolution and the ability to detect STRs' isoalleles and their flanking regions, enhancing the discrimination power of this analysis. Despite the fact that STR kits for NGS are well standardized for evaluating forensic samples, there is no data on their effectiveness in differentiating monozygotic (MZ) twins, which are indistinguishable by CE.

Purpose: mutations are classically seen in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs), and EGFR-directed inhibitors have changed the therapeutic landscape in patients with -mutated NSCLC. The real-world prevalence of -mutated ovarian cancers has not been previously described. We aim to determine the prevalence of pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in ovarian cancer and describe a case of -mutated metastatic ovarian cancer with a durable response to osimertinib, an EGFR-directed targeted therapy.

DNA with high storage density can serve as an alternative storage medium to respond to the global explosion of data growth and become a powerful personal storage memory if an integrated compact device can store and handle large-scale data. Here, we incorporate a DNA cassette tape with 5.5 × 10 addressable data partitions (addressing rate up to 1570 partitions per second), a DNA loading capacity of 28.
