    Cellular characterization of the mouse collecting lymphatic vessels reveals that lymphatic muscle cells are the innate pacemaker cells

    Scott D Zawieja, Grace A Pea ... Michael J Davis
    Lymphatic muscle cells, but not CD34+ adventitial cells, exhibited pacemaker behaviors including pressure-dependent depolarization, pressure-dependent calcium mobilization during diastole, and propagated contraction waves induced by focal, optogenetic depolarization via channel rhodopsin2.

    Dissecting infant leukemia developmental origins with a hemogenic gastruloid model

    Denise Ragusa, Chun Wai Suen ... Cristina Pina
    The hemogenic gastruloid model of embryonic blood development captures multi-wave haematopoiesis and enables interrogation of infant leukaemia cell-of-origin.

    Dynamic estimation of the attentional field from visual cortical activity

    Ilona M Bloem, Leah Bakst ... Sam Ling
    Visuocortical activity in humans reveals that the spatial focus of covert attention flexibly shifts and expands in accordance with task demands.

    Xcr1+ type 1 conventional dendritic cells are essential mediators for atherosclerosis progression

    Tianhan Li, Liaoxun Lu ... Lichen Zhang
    Using Xcr1Cre-Gfp Rosa26LSL-DTA Apoe–/– model and Xcl1–/– Apoe–/– mouse model reveal an essential non-redundant role for the XCL1-XCR1 axis in cDC1-mediated atherogenesis.

    Inhibition of the UFD-1-NPL-4 complex triggers an aberrant immune response in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Rajneesh Rao, Alejandro Aballay, Jogender Singh
    Inhibition of the UFD-1-NPL-4 complex activates immune responses in Caenorhabditis elegans that reduce gut pathogen load but simultaneously compromise host survival.

    The flexible stalk domain of sTREM2 modulates its interactions with brain-based phospholipids

    David Saeb, Emma E Lietzke ... Kayla G Sprenger
    The flexible stalk region of sTREM2 binds the Ig-like domain, altering stability and ligand accessibility—a biochemically testable mechanism with broad implications for (s)TREM2 biology and rational Alzheimer's disease therapeutic design.

    p53 isoforms have a high aggregation propensity, interact with chaperones and lack binding to p53 interaction partners

    Anamari Brdar, Christian Osterburg ... Volker Dötsch
    p53 isoforms induce cellular stress based on their only partially folded states.
