Discoidin domain receptor 2 controls craniofacial morphology by acting in skeletal progenitor cells and chondrocytes to control collagen matrix organization, chondrocyte polarity, and growth.

Bacillus thuringiensis crystalline toxins used as microbial pesticides disrupt the homeostasis of intestinal cells of the non-target Drosophila melanogaster.

Transcriptomic comparison of inflammatory and steady-state osteoclasts reveals differences in their ability to sense their environment, which makes it possible to selectively inhibit inflammatory osteoclastogenesis and reduce bone loss in osteoporosis.

The neutral amino acid transporter SLC38A2 is an essential protective factor for renal medulla during urine concentration.

The cooperative action of PAF15 deubiquitylation by USP7 and its dissociation from chromatin by ATAD5 regulates proper PAF15Ub2 signaling termination, which is important for replication and maintenance of DNA methylation.

Novel frequency-based analysis and computation modeling of cilia carpets reveals that tissue-scale metachronal coordination of cilia can arise even in the absence of global synchronization.

Pericytes in the adult ear are critical for vascular stability and spiral ganglion neuron health.

Proximity proteomics combined with mouse genetics are used to assess the composition of active zone-like sites for dopamine release and reveal that the scaffolding protein RIM organizes these sites.

The p.Arg707Trp mutation in Mfn2 causes adipose-specific activation of the integrated stress response, which lowers secretion of adipokines.

Human metabolism-focused screens reveal clinically promising interventional strategies and repurposing targets to treat COVID-19.
