    Crosstalk between AML and stromal cells triggers acetate secretion through the metabolic rewiring of stromal cells

    Nuria Vilaplana-Lopera, Vincent Cuminetti ... Paloma Garcia
    Interplay between AML and stromal cells can initiate a mechanism involving gap junctions where ROS is transferred from cancer cells to stromal cells which then produce acetate which can in return be absorbed/utilised by the cancer cells.

    Lactate-mediated epigenetic reprogramming regulates formation of human pancreatic cancer-associated fibroblasts

    Tushar D Bhagat, Dagny Von Ahrens ... Amit Verma
    Lactate in pancreatic cancer micro-environment can lead to TET enzyme activation and loss of DNA methylation seen in cancer associated fibroblasts.

    A mitochondrial carrier transports glycolytic intermediates to link cytosolic and mitochondrial glycolysis in the human gut parasite Blastocystis

    Eva Pyrihová, Martin S King ... Edmund RS Kunji
    Stramenopiles are unusual, because the pay-off phase of glycolysis occurs in mitochondria rather than the cytosol and the identified mitochondrial carrier links the two parts by transporting glycolytic intermediates.

    Metabolic but not transcriptional regulation by PKM2 is important for natural killer cell responses

    Jessica F Walls, Jeff J Subleski ... David K Finlay
    Pharmacological activation of the metabolic activities of PKM2 in murine NK cells disrupts cellular redox balance and inhibits optimal NK cell effector functions.

    Epistasis between mutator alleles contributes to germline mutation spectrum variability in laboratory mice

    Thomas A Sasani, Aaron R Quinlan, Kelley Harris
    Germline mutation rates in mice are shaped by two mutator alleles that interact epistatically, showing that DNA repair defects that map to different loci can have snowballing effects.

    Association of Toll-like receptor 7 variants with life-threatening COVID-19 disease in males: findings from a nested case-control study

    Chiara Fallerini, Sergio Daga ... Elisa Frullanti
    In the context of susceptibility to severe COVID-19, the observations of a study provide the basis for a personalized interferon-based therapy in patients with rare TLR7 variants.

    Equity, Diversity and Inclusion: Demystifying the ‘hidden curriculum’ for minoritized graduate students

    Michael J Hopkins, Brittni N Moore ... Andrea S Young
    Exposing new PhD students from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups to the 'hidden curriculum' in graduate school will help prepare them for a career in research.

    The bacterial quorum sensing signal 2’-aminoacetophenone rewires immune cell bioenergetics through the Ppargc1a/Esrra axis to mediate tolerance to infection

    Arijit Chakraborty, Arunava Bandyopadhaya ... Laurence G Rahme
    The Pseudomonas aeruginosa secreted signaling molecule 2'-aminoacetophenone modulates cellular immunometabolism to promote persistence in infected tissues.

    Activation of the NRF2 antioxidant program generates an imbalance in central carbon metabolism in cancer

    Volkan I Sayin, Sarah E LeBoeuf ... Thales Papagiannakopoulos
    Activation of the NRF2 antioxidant program leads to an imbalance in central carbon metabolism and sensitizes cancers to glutaminase inhibition.
