    Inverse regulation of Vibrio cholerae biofilm dispersal by polyamine signals

    Andrew A Bridges, Bonnie L Bassler
    The global pathogen Vibrio cholerae monitors environmental polyamines to garner information about numbers of ‘self’ versus ‘other’ in the vicinity, and in response, to remain or disperse from biofilms.

    Tadr is an axonal histidine transporter required for visual neurotransmission in Drosophila

    Yongchao Han, Lei Peng, Tao Wang
    TADR (torn and diminished rhabdomeres)-dependent histidine transporting is required for de novo synthesis of histamine and for maintaining synaptic transmission of photoreceptor neurons in Drosophila.

    Subcellular proteomics of dopamine neurons in the mouse brain

    Benjamin D Hobson, Se Joon Choi ... Peter A Sims
    APEX2 proximity labeling of genetically targeted neurons enables subcellular and cell type-specific proteomics in the mouse brain, revealing the axonal and somatodendritic proteomes of midbrain dopaminergic neurons.

    Multi-omics characterization of partial chemical reprogramming reveals evidence of cell rejuvenation

    Wayne Mitchell, Ludger JE Goeminne ... Vadim N Gladyshev
    Partial chemical reprogramming is able to reduce the biological age of cells by diverting them to a different metabolic state marked by a strong upregulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
