    The eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E harnesses hyaluronan production to drive its malignant activity

    Hiba Ahmad Zahreddine, Biljana Culjkovic-Kraljacic ... Katherine LB Borden
    The eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4E induces hyaluronic acid (HA) synthesis to drive cancer metastasis which can be reversed following eIF4E inhibition and HA degradation.

    IFNγ induces epigenetic programming of human T-bethi B cells and promotes TLR7/8 and IL-21 induced differentiation

    Esther Zumaquero, Sara L Stone ... Frances E Lund
    IFNγ increases the responsiveness of human B cells to IL-2, TLR7/8 and IL-21 signals and therefore enhances antibody production in inflammatory settings associated with autoimmune or chronic disease.

    Amidst multiple binding orientations on fork DNA, Saccharolobus MCM helicase proceeds N-first for unwinding

    Himasha M Perera, Michael A Trakselis
    The archaeal MCM helicase can load in multiple orientations on DNA but translocation proceeds with a leading N-terminal domain, which affects double hexamer activation at origins of replication.

    USP28 deletion and small-molecule inhibition destabilizes c-MYC and elicits regression of squamous cell lung carcinoma

    E Josue Ruiz, Adan Pinto-Fernandez ... Axel Behrens
    Deletion and small-molecule inhibition of ubiquitin-specific protease 28 destabilizes the oncogenes c-MYC, c-JUN, and Δp63, and elicits regression of squamous cell lung carcinoma, a major cancer type with currently limited treatment options.

    Yap-lin28a axis targets let7-Wnt pathway to restore progenitors for initiating regeneration

    Zhian Ye, Zhongwu Su ... Linjia Jiang
    Atoh1+ HC precursors survive post severe injury and activate the Yap-Lin28 pathway to restore progenitor for initiating regeneration.

    The alpha/B.1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 variant exhibits significantly higher affinity for ACE-2 and requires lower inoculation doses to cause disease in K18-hACE2 mice

    Rafael Bayarri-Olmos, Laust Bruun Johnsen ... Mikkel-Ole Skjoedt
    Functional characterization of the alpha/B1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 variant revealed an eightfold affinity increase of the N501Y RBD to human ACE-2 and that even a low inoculation dose of the alpha variant induces severe disease and fast progression in transgenic hACE2 mice.

    Embryo-derive TNF promotes decidualization via fibroblast activation

    Si-Ting Chen, Wen-Wen Shi ... Zeng-Ming Yang
    Embryo-derived TNF promotes CPLA phosphorylation and arachidonic acid release from luminal epithelium to induce fibroblast activation and decidualization.

    Collagen-rich omentum is a premetastatic niche for integrin α2-mediated peritoneal metastasis

    Yen-Lin Huang, Ching-Yeu Liang ... Viola Heinzelmann-Schwarz
    Inhibition of ITGA2-mediated cancer cell-collagen interaction or targeting focal adhesion kinase activity may present an opportunity for therapeutic intervention of metastatic spread in ovarian cancer.
