    The Hippo kinase cascade regulates a contractile cell behavior and cell density in a close unicellular relative of animals

    Jonathan E Phillips, Duojia Pan
    Genetic analysis of Hippo pathway kinases in a close unicellular relative of animals suggests an ancestral role of this ancient pathway in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics and density of multicellular aggregates.

    Multi-omics characterization of partial chemical reprogramming reveals evidence of cell rejuvenation

    Wayne Mitchell, Ludger JE Goeminne ... Vadim N Gladyshev
    Partial chemical reprogramming is able to reduce the biological age of cells by diverting them to a different metabolic state marked by a strong upregulation of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.

    Caveolin-1 protects endothelial cells from extensive expansion of transcellular tunnel by stiffening the plasma membrane

    Camille Morel, Eline Lemerle ... Emmanuel Lemichez
    Caveolin-1 controls the width of transendothelial cell tunnels via a direct or indirect effect on membrane bending rigidity.

    Paradoxical imbalance between activated lymphocyte protein synthesis capacity and rapid division rate

    Mina O Seedhom, Devin Dersh ... Jonathan W Yewdell
    Quantitative protein and ribosome 'accounting' in T cells highlights a gap in our understanding of how activated T cells sufficiently replicate their proteome during rapid cell division driven by infection.

    Inhibition of CERS1 in skeletal muscle exacerbates age-related muscle dysfunction

    Martin Wohlwend, Pirkka-Pekka Laurila ... Johan Auwerx
    CERS1 reduction in aging skeletal muscle contributes to impaired muscle function, myogenesis and increases inflammation and fibrosis, highlighting the significance of very long chain ceramides in age-related muscle homeostasis.

    Spatiotemporal dissection of the Golgi apparatus and the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment in budding yeast

    Takuro Tojima, Yasuyuki Suda ... Akihiko Nakano
    Spatiotemporal mapping of a variety of proteins in and around the Golgi apparatus in budding yeast was performed using super-resolution live imaging microscopy and identified the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment that matures into the Golgi.

    WRNIP1 prevents transcription-associated genomic instability

    Pasquale Valenzisi, Veronica Marabitti ... Annapaola Franchitto
    WRNIP1 has been identified as a pivotal factor in preventing the pathological persistence of R-loop-induced transcription-replication conflicts and the accumulation of DNA damage, thereby ensuring genome integrity.

    Perirenal adipose tissue contains a subpopulation of cold-inducible adipocytes derived from brown-to-white conversion

    Houyu Zhang, Yan Li ... Meng Xie
    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.
