A brown-to-white adipogenic transdifferentiation process in the periureter region of mouse renal adipose tissue gives rise to a population of cold-inducible adipocytes with a transcriptome distinct from subcutaneous beige adipocytes.

TGN46 is a cargo receptor, with its luminal domain being necessary and sufficient to load soluble secretory proteins into transport carriers for export out of the trans-Golgi network.

A novel imaging method for measuring myofibril size/number reveals that the radial growth of muscle fibers that occurs in response to increased mechanical loading is largely mediated by myofibrillogenesis.

Depletion of VAPA in cancer cells induces defects in actin organization, adhesion dynamics and cell migration, together with a perturbation of phosphoinositide levels at the plasma membrane and a lack of anchoring of ER-PM contact sites to focal adhesions.

CCDC146 is a structural component of the flagellum in sperm, located in the doublet microtubules of the axoneme, whose absence leads to multiple morphological anomalies of the flagellum.

High-quality fluorescence live-cell and single molecule imaging via computer-controlled, user-assembled microscope that fits in incubator, can in large parts be 3D printed and employs open source software and electronics.
