    The scaffolding protein flot2 promotes cytoneme-based transport of wnt3 in gastric cancer

    Daniel Routledge, Sally Rogers ... Steffen Scholpp
    Signalling filopodia, also known as cytonemes, are a crucial transport mechanism of Wnt3 in gastric cancer and their emergence is controlled by Flot2.

    HLJ1 amplifies endotoxin-induced sepsis severity by promoting IL-12 heterodimerization in macrophages

    Wei-Jia Luo, Sung-Liang Yu ... Kang-Yi Su
    Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals HLJ1 as a novel immunomodulator for multicellular pathway of macrophages and NK cells, contributing to organ injury and sepsis death through amplified IL-12/IFN-γ axis.

    Ecological lipidology

    Laura Christin Trautenberg, Marko Brankatschk ... Klaus Reinhardt
    Effects of dietary lipids on organismal function and reproductive fitness are persistent and may depend on lipid identity, cause the evolution of lipid-based diet choice, alter food webs, change species responses to environmental change, and affect human nutrition.

    GJA1 depletion causes ciliary defects by affecting Rab11 trafficking to the ciliary base

    Dong Gil Jang, Keun Yeong Kwon ... Tae Joo Park
    Ciliogenesis requires a gap junction protein (GJA1) mediated ciliary vesicle deposition and CP110 removal.

    In situ single particle classification reveals distinct 60S maturation intermediates in cells

    Bronwyn A Lucas, Kexin Zhang ... Nikolaus Grigorieff
    Comparing the relative similarity of cellular molecules to alternate templates allows classification of related complexes in the cell using fewer particles than needed for 3D classification and is more practicable for low abundance complexes.

    β-cell deletion of the PKm1 and PKm2 isoforms of pyruvate kinase in mice reveals their essential role as nutrient sensors for the KATP channel

    Hannah R Foster, Thuong Ho ... Matthew J Merrins
    Local ATP production by the plasma membrane-associated glycolytic enzyme pyruvate kinase is essential for the nutrient-dependent closure of the ATP-sensitive potassium channels that initiate insulin release from pancreatic β-cells.

    STAG2 promotes the myelination transcriptional program in oligodendrocytes

    Ningyan Cheng, Guanchen Li ... Hongtao Yu
    Brain-specific inactivation of cohesin-STAG2 in the mouse causes myelination defects, thus implicating hypomyelination as a contributing factor to cohesinopathy and establishing oligodendrocytes as a cell system to probe the physiological function of cohesin-mediated genome folding.
