    Maintenance of neuronal TDP-43 expression requires axonal lysosome transport

    Veronica H Ryan, Sydney Lawton ... Michael Emmerson Ward
    Protein, but not mRNA, levels of neurodegenerative disease-associated protein TDP-43 are decreased upon knockdown of BORC, a complex that is required for the anterograde transport of lysosomes.

    Impact of maximal overexpression of a non-toxic protein on yeast cell physiology

    Yuri Fujita, Shotaro Namba ... Hisao Moriya
    A neutrality index identifies mox-YG as a minimally cytotoxic protein, enabling ultra-high expression and uncovering key physiological consequences of protein burden.

    Horizontally transferred cell-free chromatin particles function as autonomous ‘satellite genomes’ and vehicles for transposable elements within host cells

    Soumita Banerjee, Soniya Sanjay Shende ... Indraneel Mittra
    Uptake of cell-free chromatin particles released from dying cells and carrying non-coding DNA could redefine mammalian genomics.

    Gene regulatory mechanisms guiding bifurcation of inhibitory and excitatory neuron lineages in the mouse anterior brainstem

    Sami Kilpinen, Lassi Virtanen ... Juha Partanen
    Changes of the chromatin structure suggests how the fate selector transcription factors are activated and how they guide differentiation of GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons in the anterior brainstem.

    Cellular characterization of the mouse collecting lymphatic vessels reveals that lymphatic muscle cells are the innate pacemaker cells

    Scott D Zawieja, Grace A Pea ... Michael J Davis
    Lymphatic muscle cells, but not CD34+ adventitial cells, exhibited pacemaker behaviors including pressure-dependent depolarization, pressure-dependent calcium mobilization during diastole, and propagated contraction waves induced by focal, optogenetic depolarization via channel rhodopsin2.

    Enalapril mitigates senescence and aging-related phenotypes in human cells and mice via pSmad1/5/9-driven antioxidative genes

    Wencong Lyu, Haochen Wang ... Wei Tao
    Enalapril combats the effects of senescence by activating the pSmad1/5/9–antioxidative gene axis, enhancing antioxidative defenses and promoting cell proliferation, thereby supporting healthy aging.

    C-terminal tagging, transmembrane domain hydrophobicity, and an ER retention motif influence the secretory trafficking of the inner nuclear membrane protein emerin

    Jessica Mella, Regan F Volk ... Abigail Buchwalter
    The inner nuclear membrane protein emerin readily traffics through the secretory pathway via its hydrophobic transmembrane domain when tagged with C-terminal GFP.
