An RNAi based genetic screen and subsequent analyses reveal how dyneins and small GTPases coordinate autophagosome positioning at the ncMTOC in fat cells, advancing understanding of autophagic vesicle transport.
Mouse sperm are unable to bind the zebrafish chorion, yet a subset of hyperactivated sperm can enter and cross the micropyle, suggesting a conserved mechanism of gamete interaction across species.
Megakaryocytes form a 3D cage of laminin and collagen IV that stabilizes them within their vascular niche, while β1/β3 integrins and MMP are key regulators that assist megakaryocyte maturation and intravasation.

High-content high-resolution microscopy coupled with deep learning-based analysis reveals novel phenotypes at the single-cell level during Shigella infection.
Endophilin A1 at postsynaptic sites promotes inhibitory postsynaptic organization through interaction with gephyrin to maintain E/I balance, which is essential for the suppression of epilepsy susceptibility.
