Analysis of Drosophila and mouse mutants reveals that Peroxidasin is required for tissue mechanics and full viability

K. E. Peebles, K. S. LaFever, P. S. Page-McCaw, S. Colon, D. Wang, A. M. Stricker, N. Ferrell, G. Bhave, A. Page-McCaw

This study shows that Peroxidasin is essential for tissue mechanics and viability in Drosophila and mouse mutants, with homozygous escapers showing reduced stiffness and partial Col4 crosslinking.

A protease-initiated model of wound detection

J. T. O'Connor, A. C. Stevens, E. K. Shannon, F. B. Akbar, K. S. LaFever, N. Narayanan, M. S. Hutson, A. Page-McCaw

The paper identifies a protease-initiated signal transduction pathway that enables epithelial cells to detect wounds through the activation of Gbp ligands and Mthl10 receptors, leading to calcium release.
