Re-engineering a highly conserved metabolic pathway in yeast prevents age-related functional decline and proves that ageing is not inevitably linked to loss of fitness.

A novel computational pipeline reveals patterns of tissue movement and growth in early heart formation and advances virtual modeling of development.

Inflammatory activation of endothelial cells triggers Pink1-dependent mitophagy and mitochondrial formyl peptides release, which drives neutrophil recruitment and lung injury.

Titin-associated muscle ankyrin repeat proteins limit stretch-induced longitudinal muscle hypertrophy and link titin mechanosensing to mTOR signaling.

Long-term live imaging and tracking approaches reveal a coordination between excitatory and inhibitory synapse assembly, despite continual spatiotemporal dynamics.

Endosomes operate several exit routes that sort protein cargo and depend on pathway-specific associations of a PROPPIN with the responsible protein coat, such as the here identified CROP2, to support the departure of the cargo carriers.
