    The role of B cells in immune cell activation in polycystic ovary syndrome

    Angelo Ascani, Sara Torstensson ... Elisabet Stener-Victorin
    Androgen receptor activation modifies B cell frequencies and functionality, accompanied by weight gain in female mice exposed to human PCOS IgG, highlighting the unrecognized involvement of B cells in PCOS autoimmune comorbidities despite their absence not preventing PCOS phenotype development.

    Mediator kinase inhibition suppresses hyperactive interferon signaling in Down syndrome

    Kira A Cozzolino, Lynn Sanford ... Dylan J Taatjes
    The Mediator-associated kinases CDK8 and CDK19 help drive inflammatory responses to interferon, and it is discovered that kinase-dependent transcriptional responses manifest in part through splicing changes and lipid metabolites.

    Acid-base transporters and pH dynamics in human breast carcinomas predict proliferative activity, metastasis, and survival

    Nicolai J Toft, Trine V Axelsen ... Ebbe Boedtkjer
    Cellular acidity, capacity for net acid extrusion, and expression of acid-base transporters in human breast carcinomas independently predict variation in proliferative activity, lymph node metastasis, and patient survival.

    Cellular compartmentalisation and receptor promiscuity as a strategy for accurate and robust inference of position during morphogenesis

    Krishnan S Iyer, Chaitra Prabhakara ... Madan Rao
    An information theoretic and systems biology approach shows that cellular compartmentalisation and receptor promiscuity can facilitate the accurate and robust inference of position from noisy morphogen profiles, verified by experiments in Drosophila wing imaginal disc.

    Endocannabinoids and their receptors modulate endometriosis pathogenesis and immune response

    Harshavardhan Lingegowda, Katherine B Zutautas ... Chandrakant Tayade
    Cannabinoid receptors CNR1 and CNR2 play distinct roles in endometriosis pathogenesis, potentially contributing to disease initiation and progression through differential modulation of T cell function and the lesion microenvironment.

    Disrupted PGR-B and ESR1 signaling underlies defective decidualization linked to severe preeclampsia

    Tamara Garrido-Gomez, Nerea Castillo-Marco ... Carlos Simon
    The in vivo transcriptomic fingerprint encoding defective decidualization comprises 120 genes associated with an imbalance hormonal signaling in the decidual endometria of women who developed severe preeclampsia.

    Synaptic plasticity through activation of GluA3-containing AMPA-receptors

    Maria C Renner, Eva HH Albers ... Helmut W Kessels
    A novel form of hippocampal synaptic plasticity is expressed by a change in channel function of GluA3-containing AMPA-receptors.

    Downregulation of Dickkopf-3, a Wnt antagonist elevated in Alzheimer’s disease, restores synapse integrity and memory in a disease mouse model

    Nuria Martin Flores, Marina Podpolny ... Patricia C Salinas
    The Wnt antagonist DKK3 is a key regulator of excitatory and inhibitory synapses, and its downregulation in the hippocampus restores synaptic connectivity and memory in an Alzheimer's disease mouse model.

    Defective apical extrusion signaling contributes to aggressive tumor hallmarks

    Yapeng Gu, Jill Shea ... Jody Rosenblatt
    Disrupting extrusion, a process that drives epithelial cell death, leads to increased cell survival, poor barrier function, and enhanced cell invasion and, thereby, promotes tumor initiation and progression.

    Lhx2 is a progenitor-intrinsic modulator of Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis

    Xiaodong Li, Patrick J Gordon ... Edward M Levine
    The LIM-homedomain transcription factor Lhx2 confers competence to retinal progenitor cells to activate and maintain Sonic Hedgeghog signaling at physiological levels during a key phase of tissue growth and cell type generation.
