    E3 ubiquitin ligase Deltex facilitates the expansion of Wingless gradient and antagonizes Wingless signaling through a conserved mechanism of transcriptional effector Armadillo/β-catenin degradation

    Vartika Sharma, Nalani Sachan ... Ashim Mukherjee
    Genetic and molecular analysis shows that Deltex modulates the Wingless gradient and counters Wingless signaling by promoting Armadillo/β-catenin degradation through a conserved regulatory mechanism.

    Spatial and temporal pattern of structure–function coupling of human brain connectome with development

    Guozheng Feng, Yiwen Wang ... Ni Shu
    Multimodal brain connectome analysis reveals patterns of structure–function coupling and links their developmental changes to cognitive function and transcriptomic architecture.

    Multimodal HLA-I genotype regulation by human cytomegalovirus US10 and resulting surface patterning

    Carolin Gerke, Liane Bauersfeld ... Anne Halenius
    Analysis of human cytomegalovirus-encoded glycoprotein US10 targeting human leucocyte antigen class I molecules reveals a multimodal strategy, resulting in a geno- and allotypic-dependent effects.

    Cyclic muscle contractions reinforce the actomyosin motors and mediate the full elongation of C. elegans embryo

    Anna Dai, Martine Ben Amar
    Computational and theoretical biomechanical analysis reveals how actomyosin filaments and axial muscles conjugate their activity to realize a fourfold elongation during C. elegans embryogenesis, 4 hr just before hatching.

    Spontaneous human CD8 T cell and autoimmune encephalomyelitis-induced CD4/CD8 T cell lesions in the brain and spinal cord of HLA-DRB1*15-positive multiple sclerosis humanized immune system mice

    Irini Papazian, Maria Kourouvani ... Lesley Probert
    Severely immunodeficient B2m-NOG mice transplanted with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells from multiple sclerosis patients partially reproduce disease immunopathology and represent novel experimental models for studying human immune responses to the central nervous system in a rapid and personalized manner.

    Metabolic regulation of misfolded protein import into mitochondria

    Yuhao Wang, Linhao Ruan ... Rong Li
    The conserved AMP-activated protein kinase inhibits mitochondrial import of misfolded proteins and helps preserve mitochondrial and cellular fitness under proteotoxic stress.

    Stochastic characterization of navigation strategies in an automated variant of the Barnes maze

    Ju-Young Lee, Dahee Jung, Sebastien Royer
    A set of stochastic processes reproduces the mouse exploration patterns in an automated variant of the Barnes maze.

    The trunk replaces the longer mandible as the main feeding organ in elephant evolution

    Chunxiao Li, Tao Deng ... Shiqi Wang
    The long mandibles were gradually replaced by more flexible trunks in the evolution of proboscideans.

    Statin-mediated reduction in mitochondrial cholesterol primes an anti-inflammatory response in macrophages by upregulating Jmjd3

    Zeina Salloum, Kristin Dauner ... Xiaohui Zha
    Genetic and biochemical analysis reveals that the anti-inflammatory effect of statins is due to decreasing cholesterol in macrophages and upregulating Jmjd3 to achieve the anti-inflammatory action.

    Senescence of endplate osteoclasts induces sensory innervation and spinal pain

    Dayu Pan, Kheiria Gamal Benkato ... Xu Cao
    Depleting senescent osteoclasts using the senolytic drug Navitoclax (ABT263) can reduce sensory innervation in the endplate and attenuate low back pain, thus representing a potent therapy for treating spinal pain.
