    A role for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-expressing cells in the regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) but not arcuate kisspeptin neuron output in male mice

    Charlotte Vanacker, R Anthony Defazio ... Suzanne M Moenter
    Astrocyte signaling can activate the firing of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons and stimulate hormone release.

    Progesterone induces meiosis through two obligate co-receptors with PLA2 activity

    Nancy Nader, Lama Assaf ... Khaled Machaca
    Progesterone mediates nongenomic signaling in Xenopus oocyte meiosis by activating a PLA2 activity that requires two membrane receptors ABDH2 and mPRß.

    IL-37 expression reduces acute and chronic neuroinflammation and rescues cognitive impairment in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model

    Niklas Lonnemann, Shirin Hosseini ... Martin Korte
    Expression of an interleukin that is immune suppressive (IL-37) in mice is able to limit inflammation in the brain after acute inflammatory events and prevent loss of cognitive abilities in a mouse model of AD.

    Gut microbiota-derived gamma-aminobutyric acid from metformin treatment reduces hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury through inhibiting ferroptosis

    Fangyan Wang, Xiujie Liu ... Wantie Wang
    Gut microbiota-derived gamma-aminobutyric acid is identified as a key metabolite that metformin protect from hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury.

    3,6’-dithiopomalidomide reduces neural loss, inflammation, behavioral deficits in brain injury and microglial activation

    Chih-Tung Lin, Daniela Lecca ... Nigel H Greig
    The new drug 3,6’-dithiopomalidomide mitigates key markers of neuronal death and neuroinflammation and improves acute behavioral outcome measures in traumatic brain injury, a common, debilitating disorder that lacks effective treatment.

    Brain endothelial cell TRPA1 channels initiate neurovascular coupling

    Pratish Thakore, Michael G Alvarado ... Scott Earley
    Activation of TRPA1 channels on cerebral capillary endothelial cells initiates a retrograde signal that propagates and dilates upstream arterioles.

    Metabolic response of blood vessels to TNFα

    Abidemi Junaid, Johannes Schoeman ... Thomas Hankemeier
    The metabolic readout of endothelial function in the microvessels-on-a-chip facilitates mechanistic studies and detection of biomarkers for microvascular diseases in a physiological relevant environment.

    Increasing adult-born neurons protects mice from epilepsy

    Swati Jain, John J LaFrancois ... Helen E Scharfman
    Increasing adult-born neurons in the dentate gyrus reduces neuronal loss and chronic seizures in female mice using a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy.

    Parathyroid hormone attenuates osteoarthritis pain by remodeling subchondral bone in mice

    Qi Sun, Gehua Zhen ... Xu Cao
    Parathyroid hormone attenuates osteoarthritis pain and joint degeneration by modification of subchondral bone remodeling and could be a potential disease-modifying therapy for osteoarthritis.

    Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 signaling drives placental aging and can provoke preterm labor

    Erin J Ciampa, Padraich Flahardy ... Samir M Parikh
    The role of placental aging and metabolic stress in driving labor onset is demonstrated, with a novel mouse model of preterm labor in which injection of a prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor stabilizes placental hypoxia-inducible factor 1 and significantly shortens gestational length.
