   Functionally coupled ion channels begin co-assembling at the start of their synthesis

   Roya Pournejati, Jessica M Huang ... Oscar Vivas

   BK and Ca_V1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating coordinated processes for functional coupling.

   Secreted exosomes induce filopodia formation

   Caitlin McAtee, Mikin R Patel ... Alissa M Weaver

   Exosome-associated THSD7A is identified as a key trigger of filopodia formation in cancer cells and neurons, revealing a novel pathway with implications for metastasis, neuronal connectivity, and other filopodia-dependent processes.

   Chemotherapy: Lipid balance and chemoresistance in cancer cells

   Kaori Kanemaru, Yoshikazu Nakamura

   A shift in the balance between two lipids – cholesterol and sphingomyelin – makes hybrid epithelial-mesenchymal cancer cells less responsive to certain chemotherapy drugs.

   Overexpression of Ssd1 and calorie restriction extend yeast replicative lifespan by preventing deleterious age-dependent iron uptake

   J Ignacio Gutierrez, Claudia Edgar, Jessica K Tyler

   Live imaging analyses in budding yeast reveal that calorie restriction and overexpression of the mRNA binding protein Ssd1 both block deleterious age-dependent iron uptake as a mechanism to extend lifespan.

   Dilated cardiomyopathy-associated RNA-binding motif protein 20 regulates long pre-mRNAs in neurons

   Giulia Di Bartolomei, Raúl Ortiz ... Peter Scheiffele

   An alternative splicing regulator previously implicated in calcium signaling in the heart ensures cell-type-specific mRNA processing of long neuronal mRNAs in the mouse brain.

    Chemotherapy resistance due to epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition is caused by abnormal lipid metabolic balance

    Atsushi Matsumoto, Akihito Inoko ... Junichi Ikenouchi

    Lipid imbalance triggered by Snail-driven epithelial–mesenchymal transition creates a cholesterol-dependent vulnerability that can be therapeutically targeted to overcome chemoresistance in cancer.
