    Changes in local mineral homeostasis facilitate the formation of benign and malignant testicular microcalcifications

    Ida Marie Boisen, Nadia Krarup Knudsen ... Martin Blomberg Jensen
    Testicular microcalcifications arise secondary to local alterations in mineral homeostasis, which in combination with impaired Sertoli cell function and reduced levels of mineralization inhibitors facilitate deposition of hydroxyapatite.

    Molecular mapping and functional validation of GLP-1R cholesterol binding sites in pancreatic beta cells

    Affiong Ika Oqua, Kin Chao ... Alejandra Tomas
    Islet cholesterol levels determine GLP-1R function, with several cholesterol-binding sites mapped in active vs inactive receptors and one, containing Val229, shown to control GLP-1R behaviour in beta cell models.
