    Caveolae couple mechanical stress to integrin recycling and activation

    Fidel-Nicolás Lolo, Dácil María Pavón ... Miguel A del Pozo
    Caveolae regulate integrin mechanosensing by establishing a force threshold for activation and recycling.

    SARS-CoV-2 antibody dynamics in blood donors and COVID-19 epidemiology in eight Brazilian state capitals: A serial cross-sectional study

    Carlos A Prete Jr, Lewis F Buss ... Ester C Sabino
    Blood donor serosurveillance in eight of Brazil’s most populous cities reveals extensive variation of SARS-CoV-2 attack rate across cities, age, and sex groups in December 2020 and increased intrinsic severity of the Gamma variant of concern.

    Murine muscle stem cell response to perturbations of the neuromuscular junction are attenuated with aging

    Jacqueline A Larouche, Mahir Mohiuddin ... Carlos A Aguilar
    Muscle stem cells locally respond to perturbations of motor neurons and the neuromuscular junction.

    Mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis coordinates oxidative metabolism in mammalian mitochondria

    Sara M Nowinski, Ashley Solmonson ... Jared Rutter
    Mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis is best known for producing lipoic acid, however, longer acyl chain products regulate mitochondrial electron transport chain assembly, oxidative TCA cycle metabolism, and skeletal myoblast differentiation.

    PLK-1 promotes the merger of the parental genome into a single nucleus by triggering lamina disassembly

    Griselda Velez-Aguilera, Sylvia Nkombo Nkoula ... Lionel Pintard
    The polo-like kinase (Plk1) phophorylates the C. elegans lamin LMN-1 to promote timely lamina disassembly, which is essential for the merging of the parental chromosomes at the beginning of life.

    Evolutionary changes in transcription factor coding sequence quantitatively alter sensory organ development and function

    Simon Weinberger, Matthew P Topping ... Ariane Ramaekers
    The coding sequences of a very highly conserved family of neurogenic transcription factors from different species have evolved to generate proteins that have different life times causing them to display quantitatively different neural induction potentials.

    Scaling of an antibody validation procedure enables quantification of antibody performance in major research applications

    Riham Ayoubi, Joel Ryan ... Carl Laflamme
    Open science and consensus antibody validation protocols can identify high-quality, renewable antibodies for the ~50% of the human proteome currently covered, enabling robust and reproducible biomedical research.

    The neuronal calcium sensor NCS-1 regulates the phosphorylation state and activity of the Gα chaperone and GEF Ric-8A

    Daniel Muñoz-Reyes, Levi J McClelland ... Maria Jose Sanchez-Barrena
    Biochemical, biophysical, and structural approach to determine the molecular basis of the calcium-sensitive regulation of the Gα chaperone and guanine exchange factor Ric-8A by the neuronal calcium sensor NCS-1.

    Extracellular matrix-inducing Sox9 promotes both basal progenitor proliferation and gliogenesis in developing neocortex

    Ayse Güven, Nereo Kalebic ... Wieland B Huttner
    Transcription factor Sox9 has an important role in neocortex expansion, where its expression in basal progenitors increases proliferation, induces premature gliogenesis and promotes the expression of extracellular matrix components.
    1. Immunology and Inflammation

    Dithranol targets keratinocytes, their crosstalk with neutrophils and inhibits the IL-36 inflammatory loop in psoriasis

    Theresa Benezeder, Clemens Painsi ... Peter Wolf
    Targeting the differentiation regulators and/or AMPs of keratinocytes, rather than targeting immune cells, may be an alternative approach for topical anti-psoriatic treatment, an area with high need for new drugs.
