A novel molecular mechanism linking a neurotrophin with a Toll-family and kinase-less Trk-like receptors provides a direct link from molecules to structural circuit plasticity and modification of behaviour.

The inclusive, exclusive, and hierarchical atlas of NFATc1⁺/PDGFR-α⁺ cells in dental and periodontal mesenchyme is described.

Cellular stress induces RNA decay that depends on stress granule assembly and is mediated by XRN1, independent of poly(A) tail and 5' cap removal.

SNX4 influences synaptic vesicle recruitment at the active zone, linking endosomal sorting to docked vesicle density and modulating neurotransmission efficiency during sustained activity.

The inhibition of colorectal cancer (CRC) proliferation, migration, and invasion is attributed to BEST4, which exhibits epistasis over Hes4 in the downregulation of Twist1 and consequent suppression of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in CRC.

Titin’s regulated integration and mobility after cell fusion support syncytium formation in culture, while limited diffusion in vivo highlights a key challenge for developing effective cell-based therapies for skeletal muscle diseases.

Cytoskeleton rearrangements promote formation of a giant structure called a GUVac that stops cells from dying when they become detached from the extracellular matrix.

In astrocytes, there exists an intrinsic spatial threshold of subcellular calcium levels that triggers an astrocyte calcium surge throughout the cell, demonstrating cellular astrocyte calcium integration of time and space.
