    Discovery of a small molecule that inhibits bacterial ribosome biogenesis

    Jonathan M Stokes, Joseph H Davis ... Eric D Brown
    The anticonvulsant drug lamotrigine inhibits bacterial ribosome biogenesis and reveals an unexplored role for initiation factor 2 (IF2) in ribosome assembly.

    Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-aa regulates endoplasmic reticulum–mitochondria associations

    Mroj Alassaf, Mary C Halloran
    An extracellular modulator of IGF1 signaling, Pappaa, regulates endoplasmic reticulum–mitochondria connections, which are critical for metabolic homeostasis and hair cell survival.

    Depletion of SMN protein in mesenchymal progenitors impairs the development of bone and neuromuscular junction in spinal muscular atrophy

    Sang-Hyeon Hann, Seon-Yong Kim ... Young-Yun Kong
    Fibro-adipogenic progenitors in skeletal muscle contribute to the neuromuscular pathogenesis of spinal muscular atrophy, and depletion of SMN in chondrocytes reduces local IGF sigaling in growth plate.

    Cell-autonomous regulation of epithelial cell quiescence by calcium channel Trpv6

    Yi Xin, Allison Malick ... Cunming Duan
    Genetics, in vivo imaging, and unbiased chemical biology screens reveal that Trpv6 functions as a cellular quiescence regulator and delineates a Trpv6-mediated Ca2+ signaling pathway maintaining the quiescent state.

    End-of-life targeted degradation of DAF-2 insulin/IGF-1 receptor promotes longevity free from growth-related pathologies

    Richard Venz, Tina Pekec ... Collin Yvès Ewald
    Inducible degradation of the insulin/insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor shows that a doubling in lifespan is possible even at extremely old ages in an organism.

    Tmem263 deletion disrupts the GH/IGF-1 axis and causes dwarfism and impairs skeletal acquisition

    Dylan C Sarver, Jean Garcia-Diaz ... G William Wong
    Mice lacking Tmem263 are dwarfs, and this phenotype is associated with reduced hepatic growth hormone (GH) receptor expression, a deficit in GH-induced signaling, and low insulin-like growth factor 1 level.

    Enhanced insulin signalling ameliorates C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansion toxicity in Drosophila

    Magda L Atilano, Sebastian Grönke ... Linda Partridge
    Modulation of insulin signalling could be an effective therapeutic approach against hexanucleotide repeat expansion related to c9ALS/FTD neurodegenerative diseases.

    Inverted formin 2 regulates intracellular trafficking, placentation, and pregnancy outcome

    Katherine Young Bezold Lamm, Maddison L Johnson ... Louis J Muglia
    Loss of Inverted Formin-2 impairs intracellular trafficking and trophoblast invasion, resulting in maternal hypertension and intrauterine growth restriction, which represents a novel model of impaired placental invasion that encompasses critical aspects of the great obstetrical syndromes.

    Association of lithocholic acid with skeletal muscle hypertrophy through TGR5-IGF-1 and skeletal muscle mass in cultured mouse myotubes, chronic liver disease rats and humans

    Yasuyuki Tamai, Akiko Eguchi ... Hayato Nakagawa
    Lithocholic acid associates with skeletal muscle mass and plays an important role in skeletal muscle hypertrophy through activation of the bile acid receptor.

    A mitochondria-anchored isoform of the actin-nucleating spire protein regulates mitochondrial division

    Uri Manor, Sadie Bartholomew ... Jennifer Lippincott-Schwartz
    An actin nucleating protein, Spire1C, localizes to the mitochondrial outer membrane and interacts with the endoplasmic reticulum-anchored formin protein INF2 to drive mitochondrial fission.
