In response to neuronal activity in vivo, mitochondria in dendrites of excitatory neurons inhibit recruitment of ionotropic glutamate receptors through a reactive oxygen signaling mechanism.

Stellate cell lactate transporter MCT1 significantly contributes to liver fibrosis through increased collagen 1 protein expression in vitro and in vivo.

The kinetoplastid parasite Trypanosoma brucei employs a unique mechanism to target the conserved Aurora B kinase to kinetochores and the central spindle.

Sphingolipids regulate vacuolar fission via nuclear vacuole junction to adapt to intracellular and extracellular environments in budding yeast.

The calcium-binding proteins synaptotagmin 7 and Doc2α act sequentially during asynchronous neurotransmitter release.

Imaging analysis confirms ChIP-Seq data on the distinct genomic distribution of histone H1 variants in AT-rich, nuclear peripheral regions (H1.2, H1.3, H1.5, H1.0) or GC-rich, throughout the nucleus (H1.4, H1X).

In quiescent yeast, a stable bundle of parallel microtubules is assembled from the centrosome by an original multistep mechanism that follows a precise temporality and involves Aurora B and various kinesins.
