    Cis-activation in the Notch signaling pathway

    Nagarajan Nandagopal, Leah A Santat, Michael B Elowitz
    Activation of Notch receptors by ligands in the same cell (cis-activation) is a prevalent and functional mode of signaling in the Notch pathway, and co-exists with trans-activation and cis-inhibition.

    Regulatory consequences of neuronal ELAV-like protein binding to coding and non-coding RNAs in human brain

    Claudia Scheckel, Elodie Drapeau ... Robert B Darnell
    Neuronal ELAV-like (nELAVL) proteins are associated with non-coding Y RNAs in stressed neurons and in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients, suggesting a new means of regulatory protein sequestration and mRNA target regulation.

    The ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate ameliorates neurodevelopmental deficits in the GABAergic system of daf-18/PTEN Caenorhabditis elegans mutants

    Sebastián Giunti, María Gabriela Blanco ... Diego Rayes
    PTEN mutations disrupt inhibitory GABAergic signaling, causing neurodevelopmental defects that can be mitigated by β-hydroxybutyrate, which activates DAF-16/FOXO and may offer a therapeutic approach for excitation/inhibition imbalances.
