    Endocytic recycling is central to circadian collagen fibrillogenesis and disrupted in fibrosis

    Joan Chang, Adam Pickard ... Karl E Kadler
    Secretion and fibrillogenesis of collagen-I are separately controlled molecular pathways in the fibroblast, where surprisingly endocytic recycling is required for fibril formation and is increased in fibrotic fibroblasts.

    Hypersensitive intercellular responses of endometrial stromal cells drive invasion in endometriosis

    Chun-Wei Chen, Jeffery B Chavez ... Bruce J Nicholson
    A unique functional comparison of the major endometrial cell types from 44 control and endometriosis patients demonstrates not only a uterine origin of the disease, but also that endometrial to mesothelial cell gap junctions are required for invasive lesion formation.

    Robust single-nucleus RNA sequencing reveals depot-specific cell population dynamics in adipose tissue remodeling during obesity

    Jisun So, Olivia Strobel ... Hyun Cheol Roh
    Significant technical improvement in single-nucleus RNA-seq reveals distinct adipocyte subpopulations that respond differently to obesity, including those undergoing adaptive healthy expansion and others displaying severe dysfunction.
