Regulation of midzone microtubule dynamics and abscission in human cells by CAMSAP2 and Kif2a

Carline Fermino do Rosário, Erin Walsh, Andrew D. Stephens, Patricia Wadsworth

This study shows CAMSAP2 and Kif2a regulate midzone microtubule dynamics and cell abscission in human cells through their opposing roles in microtubule organization.

Lamin B loss in nuclear blebs is rupture dependent while increased DNA damage is rupture independent

Catherine G. Chu, Nick Lang, Erin Walsh, Ming Zheng, Gianna Manning, Kiruba Shalin, Lyssa M. Cunha, Kate E. Faucon, Nicholas Kam, Sara N. Folan, Arav P. Desai, Emily Naughton, Jaylynn Abreu, Alexis M. Carson, Zachary L. Wald, , Andrew D. Stephens

The paper measures lamin B and DNA damage in blebbed nuclei to determine the effect of nuclear rupture, finding lamin B loss is rupture-dependent while DNA damage is independent.

Modulation of Retinal Inflammation Delays Degeneration in a Mouse Model of Geographic Atrophy

Raela B Ridley, Brianna M Tischner, Jieun Lee, Erin Walsh, Michael T. Massengill, Alfred S. Lewin, Cristhian J. Ildefonso

This study shows that delivering an anti-inflammatory gene via AAV in a mouse model of geographic atrophy delays retinal degeneration and reduces inflammation.

CTCF maintains pericentromere function and mitotic fidelity

Erin Walsh, Andrew D. Stephens

This study shows that CTCF is essential for pericentromere function, mitotic fidelity, and post-mitotic nuclear shape by disrupting mitotic spindle organization and increasing intercentromere distances.
