    Negative cell cycle regulation by calcineurin is necessary for proper beta cell regeneration in zebrafish

    Laura Massoz, David Bergemann ... Isabelle Manfroid
    Calcineurin fine tunes the balance between proliferation and differentiation of Notch-responsive progenitors in the pancreatic ducts to enable beta cell regeneration in zebrafish.

    Muscle-resident mesenchymal progenitors sense and repair peripheral nerve injury via the GDNF-BDNF axis

    Kyusang Yoo, Young-Woo Jo ... Young-Yun Kong
    GDNF receptor-expressing mesenchymal progenitor subpopulation within skeletal muscle responds to peripheral nerve injury by sensing GDNF and secreting BDNF, thereby directly promoting nerve regeneration through facilitating remyelination by Schwann cells.

    Reprogramming: A perfect recipe for a corticospinal neuron

    Alfonso Aguilera, Marta Nieto
    A tailored cocktail of genes can reprogram a subset of progenitors to no longer produce glial cells and instead develop into neurons involved in motor control.
