Biochemical and microscopy-based approaches in mouse and human macrophages reveal that glycine cytoprotection acts at the level of the newly identified pan-death protein NINJ1 to inhibit multiple lytic cell death pathways, thereby resolving a long-standing mechanism of glycine cytoprotection.

Wind and ocean wave conditions experienced by albatrosses were estimated using an animal-borne recorder and revealed that take-off was easier under higher wave conditions.

An unbiased transcriptional profiling screen reveals the secreted matrix metalloproteinase MMP-1 is a transcriptional target of the ensheathing glial receptor Draper following acute axon injury in adult Drosophila.

HIV-specific T cells remain detectable for years in HIV-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy and importantly, mostly (68%) recognize HIV viruses that have the capacity to rebound following treatment interruption.

Clearance of engineered Salmonella which trigger regulated cell death is dependent upon the cellular 'bucket list,' which is determined both by cell death signaling pathway and by cell type infected.

A critical analysis of recent single-cell transcriptomic studies of Drosophila blood cells confirms the extreme plasticity of the major phagocyte class, identifies a new class of blood cell, and suggests relationships to blood cells in other insects.

Plants and humans use a shared mechanism, the eukaryotic metabolic sensor TARGET OF RAPAMYCIN protein kinase and its substrate, an RNA-binding protein called LARP1, to coordinate post-transcriptional gene expression.
