    Reducing lipid bilayer stress by monounsaturated fatty acids protects renal proximal tubules in diabetes

    Albert Pérez-Martí, Suresh Ramakrishnan ... Matias Simons
    Monounsaturated fatty acids protect against DKD by enhancing membrane fluidity and decreasing ER lipid bilayer stress in renal proximal tubules.

    Glycan processing in the Golgi as optimal information coding that constrains cisternal number and enzyme specificity

    Alkesh Yadav, Quentin Vagne ... Madan Rao
    A mathematical model of glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus to investigate how the fidelity of synthesising a complex glycan distribution at the plasma membrane depends on parameters such as the number of Golgi cisternae or enzyme specificity.

    A persistent behavioral state enables sustained predation of humans by mosquitoes

    Trevor R Sorrells, Anjali Pandey ... Leslie B Vosshall
    Brief fictive carbon dioxide sensation induced by optogenetics in the female mosquito induces long-lasting arousal and probing, explaining the persistent predatory behavior of this dangerous disease-vectoring insect.

    Canonical Wnt signaling and the regulation of divergent mesenchymal Fgf8 expression in axolotl limb development and regeneration

    Giacomo L Glotzer, Pietro Tardivo, Elly M Tanaka
    Although many Apical Ectodermal Ridge signaling components are found in the axolotl limb epidermis, responsiveness to canonical Wnt signaling has shifted to the limb mesenchyme where it regulates mesenchymal Fgf8 expression.

    Transcription elongation is finely tuned by dozens of regulatory factors

    Mary Couvillion, Kevin M Harlen ... L Stirling Churchman
    NET-seq analysis of 41 S. cerevisiae transcription regulatory factors uncovers their differential and opposing effects on Pol II transcription elongation and antisense transcription, revealing that wild-type transcription is balanced by the joint impact of many regulators.

    Short senolytic or senostatic interventions rescue progression of radiation-induced frailty and premature ageing in mice

    Edward Fielder, Tengfei Wan ... Satomi Miwa
    Late effects of radiation therapy in mice can be prevented by treatment with either senolytics navitoclax or quercetin plus dasatinib or the senostatic metformin.

    Proposing a neural framework for the evolution of elaborate courtship displays

    Ryan W Schwark, Matthew J Fuxjager, Marc F Schmidt
    The midbrain periaqueductal grey is a conserved mediator of elaborate courtship behavior in a range of vertebrate taxa, likely shaping how this behavior diversifies across the tree of life.

    High-intensity interval training remodels the proteome and acetylome of human skeletal muscle

    Morten Hostrup, Anders Krogh Lemminger ... Atul Shahaji Deshmukh
    Global proteomic and acetylomic analyses reveal how skeletal muscle adapts to high-intensity interval training including adaptations to processes regulating metabolism and contraction.

    Target binding triggers hierarchical phosphorylation of human Argonaute-2 to promote target release

    Brianna Bibel, Elad Elkayam ... Leemor Joshua-Tor
    The central RNA interference protein, human Argonaute-2, releases its target following phosphorylation on a critical loop in the protein, freeing microRNA-bound Argonaute-2 to seek out and repress additional targets.
