    A century of trends in adult human height

    NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC)
    Height in early adulthood is an indicator that integrates across different dimensions of sustainable human development with links to health and longevity, nutrition, education and economic productivity.

    Disease consequences of higher adiposity uncoupled from its adverse metabolic effects using Mendelian randomisation

    Susan Martin, Jessica Tyrrell ... Hanieh Yaghootkar
    Using genetics, it is possible to uncouple higher adiposity from its adverse metabolic effects and show that some obesity-associated conditions may benefit from treating the metabolic effects alone, whilst others may benefit more from weight loss.

    Gating interactions steer loop conformational changes in the active site of the L1 metallo-β-lactamase

    Zhuoran Zhao, Xiayu Shen ... Shozeb Haider
    Extremely significant interactions between α3-β7 and β12-α5 loops in the tetrameric L1 metallo-β-lactamase play an important role in the structural remodeling of the active site and offer insights into the potential for novel drug development by exploiting these interactions.

    Hypersensitive intercellular responses of endometrial stromal cells drive invasion in endometriosis

    Chun-Wei Chen, Jeffery B Chavez ... Bruce J Nicholson
    A unique functional comparison of the major endometrial cell types from 44 control and endometriosis patients demonstrates not only a uterine origin of the disease, but also that endometrial to mesothelial cell gap junctions are required for invasive lesion formation.

    The conformation of the histone H3 tail inhibits association of the BPTF PHD finger with the nucleosome

    Emma A Morrison, Samuel Bowerman ... Catherine A Musselman
    The BPTF PHD finger is inhibited from binding the methylated H3 tails in the context of the nucleosome due to their robust interaction with the nucleosomal DNA, which can be modulated by additional histone PTMs.

    Reversal of ApoE4-induced recycling block as a novel prevention approach for Alzheimer’s disease

    Xunde Xian, Theresa Pohlkamp ... Joachim Herz
    Lowering endosomal pH through inhibition of sodium-hydrogen exchanger 6 corrects the ApoE4-induced Reelin resistance and restores neuronal glutamate receptor trafficking.

    ICAM-1 nanoclusters regulate hepatic epithelial cell polarity by leukocyte adhesion-independent control of apical actomyosin

    Cristina Cacho-Navas, Carmen López-Pujante ... Jaime Millán
    ICAM-1 engagement controls hepatic cell polarity, but this receptor can also signal without prior leukocyte interaction, thanks to its confinement into apical, microvilli-enriched, bile-canalicular domains and its actin connector EBP50.

    PASK links cellular energy metabolism with a mitotic self-renewal network to establish differentiation competence

    Michael Xiao, Chia-Hua Wu ... Chintan K Kikani
    Stem cell heterogeneity is progressively built in proliferating population by the action of mitochondrial glutamine metabolism that opposes the cell cycle-linked self-renewal network to generate differentiation-competent progenitors.

    NHE6 depletion corrects ApoE4-mediated synaptic impairments and reduces amyloid plaque load

    Theresa Pohlkamp, Xunde Xian ... Joachim Herz
    Genetic disruption of sodium-hydrogen exchanger 6 (NHE6) reduces amyloid plaques in humanized Alzheimer's disease mouse models and restores normal synaptic responses to neuromodulatory input in humanized ApoE4-expressing animals.

    Control of neurotransmitter release by two distinct membrane-binding faces of the Munc13-1 C1C2B region

    Marcial Camacho, Bradley Quade ... Christian Rosenmund
    Two different binding modes of the Munc13-1 C­1C2B region govern synaptic vesicle priming and neurotransmitter release probability.
