A multidisciplinary approach demonstrates that glycolysis orchestrates fungal morphogenesis and virulence by regulating the de novo biosynthesis of sulfur-containing amino acids, thereby establishing a novel metabolic paradigm.
Small-molecule mitochondrial transcription factor A modulators stabilize mtDNA, preventing cytosolic escape and suppressing cGAS-STING interferon signaling, while improving bioenergetics and fibrosis markers in disease models.
Upregulated expression of transcription factors promoting cone identity in late-stage retinal progenitors drives development of the cone-dominant retina of 13-lined ground squirrels.
Mir195 enables Ebf1-deficient hematopoietic progenitor cells to mature into B cells, suggesting some miRNA can substitute for transcription factors in differentiation.
The IL-17–Ly6G⁺ granulocyte axis is a key driver and correlate of tuberculosis pathology and represents a potential target for improving vaccine-induced protection and therapeutic outcomes.
Even in a simple epithelial tissue that is exposed uniformly to X-ray irradiation, cells show marked differences in their transcriptional response based on their location and cell-cycle status.
Inhibiting PRMT1 and PRMT5 renders HR-proficient ovarian and breast cancers highly vulnerable to PARP inhibition by suppressing BRCAness and amplifying DNA-damage-driven innate immune signaling.

In Drosophila larva, the Uninflatable protein helps to switch from FGF-receptor triggered glial growth to Notch triggered wrapping of peripheral axons.
