    SCGN deficiency results in colitis susceptibility

    Luis F Sifuentes-Dominguez, Haiying Li ... Ezra Burstein
    A novel mutation in SCGN is associated with risk for inflammatory bowel disease and implicates the intestinal neuroendocrine compartment in the pathogenesis of this disorder.

    Ecdysone steroid hormone remote controls intestinal stem cell fate decisions via the PPARγ-homolog Eip75B in Drosophila

    Lisa Zipper, Denise Jassmann ... Tobias Reiff
    A systemic hormone controls progenitor fate decisions independent of local fate determining pathways in the adult intestinal stem cell niche of Drosophila melanogaster..

    Dietary nitrate supplementation prevents radiotherapy-induced xerostomia

    Xiaoyu Feng, Zhifang Wu ... Songlin Wang
    Dietary nitrate supplementation could effectively prevent irradiation therapy-induced xerostomia for patients with head and neck cancer, providing a novel, safe, and effective way to resolve this issue.

    Obesity-linked suppression of membrane-bound O-acyltransferase 7 (MBOAT7) drives non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

    Robert N Helsley, Venkateshwari Varadharajan ... J Mark Brown
    Loss of function of membrane-bound O-acyltransferase 7 (MBOAT7), but not transmembrane channel-like 4 (TMC4), promotes hepatic steatosis.

    Ensemble cryoEM elucidates the mechanism of insulin capture and degradation by human insulin degrading enzyme

    Zhening Zhang, Wenguang G Liang ... Wei-Jen Tang
    Integrative structural analyses of human insulin degradingenzyme (IDE) reveal how IDE selectively degrades peptides that form toxicaggregates, which guides IDE-based therapeutic innovations to treat diabetesand Alzheimer's disease.

    PSTPIP2 ameliorates aristolochic acid nephropathy by suppressing interleukin-19-mediated neutrophil extracellular trap formation

    Changlin Du, Chuanting Xu ... Taotao Ma
    PSTPIP2 reduced IL-19 secretion by inhibiting activation of the NF-κB pathway in renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs), reducing the generation of neutrophil extracellular trap, which can participate in both aristolochic acid I-induced renal injury and apoptosis in RTECs.

    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.

    A critical region of A20 unveiled by missense TNFAIP3 variations that lead to autoinflammation

    Elma El Khouri, Farah Diab ... Irina Giurgea
    Enhanced proteasomal degradation of TNFAIP3 proteins carrying missense variations is one of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying HA20.
