Spatiotemporal clonal architecture of the newborn mouse forebrain
Nature, Published online: 30 September 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11064-8][1]
Clonal barcoding across the newborn mouse forebrain reveals developmental principles whereby glutamatergic neurons and astrocytes remain locally derived, whereas widely dispersed GABAergic (γ-aminobutyric acid-producing) lineages link neurons with oligodendrocyte precursor cells.

Human genetics implicates a BACH2–NRF2 axis in fetal haemoglobin activation
Nature, Published online: 30 September 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11113-2][1]
BACH2 restrains activation of the fetal-haemoglobin-encoding γ-globin genes, while loss of BACH2 enhances NRF2 chromatin occupancy and promotes the formation of activation foci at the γ-globin genes.
