    CHARGE syndrome modeling using patient-iPSCs reveals defective migration of neural crest cells harboring CHD7 mutations

    Hironobu Okuno, Francois Renault Mihara ... Hideyuki Okano
    Neural crest cells differentiated from patient-derived cells with mutations in the chromatin remodeler CHD7 show defective delamination, migration and motility in vitro, and defective migration in chick embryos.

    Aneuploidy as a cause of impaired chromatin silencing and mating-type specification in budding yeast

    Wahid A Mulla, Chris W Seidel ... Rong Li
    Genetic analyses reveal that purely quantitative changes in the relative copy number of chromosomes can be sufficient to disrupt the epigenetic mechanisms that define the cells' differentiated state.

    Current perspectives on the multiple roles of osteoclasts: Mechanisms of osteoclast–osteoblast communication and potential clinical implications

    Valentina Daponte, Katrin Henke, Hicham Drissi
    A comprehensive review focusing on the role of osteoclasts as active regulators of bone homeostasis by influencing osteoblast function explores the currently known mechanisms and coupling factors involved in osteoclast–osteoblast communication and their potential as treatments for bone diseases.

    Human thymopoiesis produces polyspecific CD8+ α/β T cells responding to multiple viral antigens

    Valentin Quiniou, Pierre Barennes ... David Klatzmann
    The thymic selection of the human T-cell receptor repertoire releases polyspecific receptors with the ability to recognize and respond to peptides from unrelated viruses.

    FER-mediated phosphorylation and PIK3R2 recruitment on IRS4 promotes AKT activation and tumorigenesis in ovarian cancer cells

    Yanchun Zhang, Xuexue Xiong ... Gaofeng Fan
    Beyond its well-accepted function in metastasis, non-receptor tyrosine kinase FER also controls ovarian tumor cell proliferation through FER-IRS4-AKT signaling axis, making itself as a promising druggable target for the disease.

    Svep1 is a binding ligand of Tie1 and affects specific aspects of facial lymphatic development in a Vegfc-independent manner

    Melina Hußmann, Dörte Schulte ... Stefan Schulte-Merker
    Tie1 is a binding partner for Svep1 in zebrafish and humans, and both genes (but not Tie2) are required during zebrafish lymphangiogenesis especially for the facial lymphatics, which in part develop independent of Vegfc.

    Candida albicans exhibits heterogeneous and adaptive cytoprotective responses to antifungal compounds

    Vanessa Dumeaux, Samira Massahi ... Michael T Hallett
    Candida albicans cells respond in two distinct ways to fluconazole exposure where cells enter the Ribo-dominant state characterized by an upregulation of ribosomal-related proteins and processes, or cells enter the Stress-dominant state characterized by the upregulation of stress responses.

    USP49 potently stabilizes APOBEC3G protein by removing ubiquitin and inhibits HIV-1 replication

    Ting Pan, Zheng Song ... Hui Zhang
    USP49 can increase A3G protein expression and enhance its anti-HIV-1 activity, which is also correlated with hypermutations and affects the HIV-1 latent reservoir.

    Determining the genetic basis of anthracycline-cardiotoxicity by molecular response QTL mapping in induced cardiomyocytes

    David A Knowles, Courtney K Burrows ... Yoav Gilad
    Genetic variants that modulate transcriptomic response to doxorubicin in human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes are predictive of cardiac damage and in vivo sensitivity to anthracycline cardiotoxicity.
