    HIV-specific CD8+ T-cell proliferative response 24 weeks after early antiretroviral therapy initiation is associated with the subsequent reduction in the viral reservoir

    Pien Margien van Paassen, Alexander O Pasternak ... Godelieve J de Bree
    In individuals who started antiretroviral therapy during acute HIV infection, the proliferative capacity of HIV-specific CD8+ T-cells at 24 weeks of therapy predicted the subsequent reduction in the viral reservoir.

    A single-cell atlas of the testicular interstitium defines Leydig progenitor networks sustaining Leydig cell homeostasis across the lifespan

    Xiaojia Huang, Kai Xia ... Wei Zhao
    Single-cell transcriptomic analysis of the murine testicular interstitium across the lifespan reveals Cd34+/Sox4+ mesenchymal cells as Leydig progenitors, whose aging-associated decline in glutathione and Sox4-regulated regenerative capacity inform potential therapeutic strategies for age-related testicular dysfunction.

    A titin missense variant drives atrial electrical remodeling and is associated with atrial fibrillation

    Mahmud Arif Pavel, Hanna Chen ... Dawood Darbar
    Genetic and electrophysiological studies uncover a mechanism linking a TTN missense variant to atrial fibrillation by coupling titin with potassium channel remodeling, revealing FHL2 as a modulator and therapeutic target.

    Feedback of peripheral saccade targets to early foveal cortex

    Luca Kämmer, Lisa M Kroell ... Martin N Hebart
    Low-level features of peripheral saccade targets are fed back to early foveal retinotopic cortex in a signal that resembles activation elicited by direct foveal presentation.

    Anti-resonance in developmental signaling regulates cell fate decisions

    Samuel J Rosen, Olivier Witteveen ... Maxwell Z Wilson
    Human cells decode dynamics Wnt signals using an anti-resonant filter that suppresses intermediate-frequency inputs and is capable of redirecting developmental fate outcomes, including germ-layer specification.

    Ω-Loop mutations control dynamics of the active site by modulating the hydrogen-bonding network in PDC-3 β-lactamase

    Shuang Chen, Andrew R Mack ... Shozeb Haider
    Clinically relevant Ω-loop mutations in PDC-3 reshape active-site dynamics to enhance β-lactamase activity, providing mechanistic insights that can guide the rational design of inhibitors.

    cxcl18b-defined transitional state-specific nitric oxide drives injury-induced Müller glia cell-cycle re-entry in the zebrafish retina

    Aojun Ye, Shuguang Yu ... Chang Chen
    Identification of a nitric oxide-regulated transitional state of Müller glia reveals a key mechanism enabling neuronal regeneration in the injured vertebrate retina.

    Identification of a sub-population of synovial mesenchymal stem cells with enhanced treatment efficacy in a rat model of osteoarthritis

    Nedaa Al-Jezani, Asmaa Affan ... Roman J Krawetz
    CD47Hi synovial mesenchymal stem cells are identified as a functionally distinct sub-population that regenerates articular cartilage and reduces osteoarthritis severity in a preclinical joint injury model.

    Single-cell profiling of trabecular meshwork identifies mitochondrial dysfunction in a glaucoma model that is protected by vitamin B3 treatment

    Nicholas Tolman, Taibo Li ... Simon WM John
    Single-cell transcriptomics identifies three discrete mouse trabecular meshwork subtypes and demonstrates that an Lmx1b glaucoma mutation drives mitochondrial dysfunction and elevated intraocular pressure, which is lessened by vitamin B3 supplementation.

    ATAD2 mediates chromatin-bound histone chaperone turnover

    Ariadni Liakopoulou, Fayçal Boussouar ... Saadi Khochbin
    ATAD2 orchestrates histone turnover during spermatogenesis, regulating H3.3 deposition, chromatin condensation, and genome packaging to ensure proper sperm genome organization and transcriptional control.
