Cx3cr1-deficient microglia exhibit a premature aging transcriptomeGyoneva et al use RNA-seq to show that Cx3cr1-deficient microglia in young mice display a gene expression profile similar to microglia in aged mice, suggesting premature microglial aging.
Phenotypic proteomic profiling identifies a landscape of targets for circadian clock–modulating compoundsThis study provides comprehensive insights into the mechanism of action and cellular effects of circadian period–modulating compounds, which is critical for clearly defining molecular targets to modulate daily rhythms for therapeutic benefit.
Evaluation of colorectal cancer subtypes and cell lines using deep learningA deep learning approach refines the state-of-the-art subtypes of colorectal cancer and evaluates the fidelity of cell lines that model cancer.
The AKT isoforms 1 and 2 drive B cell fate decisions during the germinal center responseB cell–intrinsic AKT1/2 are essential for germinal center formation, antibody production and affinity maturation, and plasma cell differentiation.
Refining the adipose progenitor cell landscape in healthy and obese visceral adipose tissue using single-cell gene expression profilingThis work dissects adipose progenitor cell (APC) heterogeneity in normal and obese adipose tissue using single-cell expression profiling. Novel APC subpopulations are identified and characterized.
ADAPTABLE: a comprehensive web platform of antimicrobial peptides tailored to the user’s researchADAPTABLE is a webserver and database of antimicrobial peptides that uses sequence and property alignment to highlight their mode of action against the threat of resistance in medicine and agriculture.
The role of MHC class I recycling and Arf6 in cross-presentation by murine dendritic cellsMHC-I internalization and recycling in DCs neither requires Arf6 nor provides MHC-I to the Rab11+ endocytic recycling compartment; however, cross-presentation of immune complexes depends on Arf6.
Plasticity in salt bridge allows fusion-competent ubiquitylation of mitofusins and Cdc48 recognitionMitochondrial fusion requires an alternating salt bridge between CMT2A-associated disease residues that enable GTP hydrolysis; Fzo1 ubiquitylation then licenses post-fusion recycling by Cdc48.
TMEM16A chloride channel does not drive mucus productionDespite being essential for airway hydration, TMEM16A is not required for mucus (MUC5AC) production. Cell proliferation is the main driver for TMEM16A up-regulation during inflammation.
Reference-free transcriptome exploration reveals novel RNAs for prostate cancer diagnosisA reference-free computational workflow for the discovery of unannotated RNA biomarkers retrieves novel noncoding RNAs with high potential for prostate cancer diagnosis.
