    Fat2 polarizes the WAVE complex in trans to align cell protrusions for collective migration

    Audrey Miller Williams, Seth Donoughe ... Sally Horne-Badovinac
    Fat2 signals from the trailing edge of each cell to localize WAVE activity to the leading edge of the cell behind, polarizing protrusive regions within cells and across the epithelium.

    Zbtb14 regulates monocyte and macrophage development through inhibiting pu.1 expression in zebrafish

    Yun Deng, Haihong Wang ... Jun Zhu
    Transcription factor Zbtb14 plays an important role in monocyte and macrophage development through the modulation of pu.1 expression.

    Single-cell transcriptomics reveals functionally specialized vascular endothelium in brain

    Hyun-Woo Jeong, Rodrigo Diéguez-Hurtado ... Ralf H Adams
    Reactive endothelial venules are a new vessel subtype characterized by consistent expression of cell adhesion molecules, preferential leukocyte transmigration, association with perivascular macrophages, and the initiation of CNS immune responses.

    The cardiopharyngeal mesoderm contributes to lymphatic vessel development in mouse

    Kazuaki Maruyama, Sachiko Miyagawa-Tomita ... Hiroki Kurihara
    Genetic lineage tracing reveals the cardiopharyngeal mesoderm as a cellular origin of craniofacial and cardiac lymphatic vessels, which most often affected in lymphatic malformation patients.

    Variable paralog expression underlies phenotype variation

    Raisa Bailon-Zambrano, Juliana Sucharov ... James T Nichols
    Within populations, there is standing variation in paralog expression levels, paralog expression levels are heritable, and variation in paralog expression can modify the phenotypes associated with mutation of one of the paralogs.

    Plexins promote Hedgehog signaling through their cytoplasmic GAP activity

    Justine M Pinskey, Tyler M Hoard ... Benjamin L Allen
    The plexin family of semaphorin receptors regulate Hedgehog pathway activity via a conserved GAP domain and FYN kinase phosphorylation site in their cytoplasmic domain.

    EZ Clear for simple, rapid, and robust mouse whole organ clearing

    Chih-Wei Hsu, Juan Cerda III ... Joshua D Wythe
    With three simple steps in 48 hr, EZ Clear effectively renders adult mouse organs optically transparent while simultaneously preserving signal from synthetic and endogenous fluorescent reporters and is compatible with wholemount immunostaining and cryosectioning followed by histological or immunofluorescent staining.

    N-myc downstream regulated gene 1 (ndrg1) functions as a molecular switch for cellular adaptation to hypoxia

    Jong S Park, Austin M Gabel ... Rachel Brewster
    Lactate-Ndrg1a signaling protects the kidney from hypoxic injury and functions partly by inducing reversible degradation of the ATP-demanding sodium-potassium ATPase pump.

    A single-cell atlas of the cycling murine ovary

    Mary E Morris, Marie-Charlotte Meinsohn ... David Pépin
    A survey of the transcriptomic landscape of the mouse ovary at the single-cell level reveals both the cellular complexity of this organs and the dynamic nature of the cellular states that accompany estrous cycling.
