Aging disrupts tissue homeostasis and constrains blastema-mediated regeneration in the Cladonema medusa

Ren Kanehisa, Hiroko Nakatani, Sho Takatori, Taisuke Tomita, Masayuki Miura, Yu-ichiro Nakajima

This study shows that aging in Cladonema medusae impairs tissue homeostasis and blastema-mediated regeneration, highlighting shared constraints on regenerative systems across metazoans.

Division of labor between ERK/MAPK and Notch signaling in regulating distinct proliferative populations during jellyfish tentacle regeneration

Sosuke Fujita, Keita Ogasawara, Ren Kanehisa, Ryo Nakajima, Hiroko Nakatani, Natsuki Shinoda, Masayuki Miura, Yu-ichiro Nakajima

The paper investigates the role of ERK/MAPK and Notch signaling in regulating distinct proliferative populations during jellyfish tentacle regeneration, finding ERK/MAPK promotes RSPC proliferation while Notch controls RHSC differentiation and proliferation balance.

BubR1 and Mad2 regulate adult midgut remodeling in Drosophila diapause

Yuya Adachi, Hiroki Nagai, Tenki Nakasugi, Miyu Nagao, Hiroko Nakatani, Takako Fujichika, Aya Takahashi, Masayuki Miura, Yu-ichiro Nakajima

This study shows that BubR1 and Mad2 regulate midgut remodeling in Drosophila diapause by promoting cell cycle arrest in intestinal stem cells, which is essential for survival under adverse conditions.
