    Stem cells and fluid flow drive cyst formation in an invertebrate excretory organ

    Hanh Thi-Kim Vu, Jochen C Rink ... Alejandro Sánchez Alvarado
    Planarians provide evidence for a common evolutionary origin of vertebrate and invertebrate excretory systems and provide a novel experimental model to study human kidney diseases.

    Epidermal PAR-6 and PKC-3 are essential for larval development of C. elegans and organize non-centrosomal microtubules

    Victoria G Castiglioni, Helena R Pires ... Mike Boxem
    PAR-6 and PKC-3/aPKC are essential for postembryonic development of C. elegans and control the organization of non-centrosomal microtubule bundles in the epidermis, likely through recruitment of NOCA-1/Ninein.

    A polarity pathway for exocyst-dependent intracellular tube extension

    Joshua Abrams, Jeremy Nance
    Lumen extension in intracellular tubes relies on a molecular pathway involving Rho GTPase signaling, cell polarity, and vesicle-tethering proteins.

    Intermediate filament network perturbation in the C. elegans intestine causes systemic dysfunctions

    Florian Geisler, Sanne Remmelzwaal ... Rudolf E Leube
    Aberrant cytoskeletal intermediate filament networks in the C. elegans intestine are associated with hyperphosphorylated intermediate filament proteins and impact not only intestinal cell structure but have also detrimental consequences for organismal well-being.

    TRPM channels mediate learned pathogen avoidance following intestinal distention

    Adam Filipowicz, Jonathan Lalsiamthara, Alejandro Aballay
    Behavioral assays using Caenorhabditis elegans show that a learned pathogen avoidance following intestinal distention requires specific chemosensory neurons and TRPM channels in the intestine and excretory cell.

    Caenorhabditis elegans SEL-5/AAK1 regulates cell migration and cell outgrowth independently of its kinase activity

    Filip Knop, Apolena Zounarová ... Marie Macůrková
    The SEL-5/AAK1 kinase unexpectedly influences Wnt signalling-dependent processes in a multicellular organism without using its enzymatic activity.

    A helminth-derived suppressor of ST2 blocks allergic responses

    Francesco Vacca, Caroline Chauché ... Henry J McSorley
    HpBARI is a protein secreted by a parasitic helminth, which binds to and blocks the IL-33 receptor, suppressing IL-33-dependent type 2 immune responses.

    Cross-modality synthesis of EM time series and live fluorescence imaging

    Anthony Santella, Irina Kolotuev ... Zhirong Bao
    A landmark-based cross-modality alignment method robust to variation in landmark sets is applied to annotate an EM time series of Caenorhabditis elegans embryonic development as a community resource.

    Resolving the origins of secretory products and anthelmintic responses in a human parasitic nematode at single-cell resolution

    Clair R Henthorn, Paul M Airs ... Mostafa Zamanian
    A single-cell gene expression atlas in a human parasitic nematode provides new insights into the distribution of anthelmintic targets and the origins of secretory molecules with diagnostic and therapeutic potential at the host–parasite interface.
