Adult ticks (Ixodes scapularis) infected with B. burgdorferi) have increased overwintering survival, with implications for tick population growth

A. El Nabbout, L. Ferguson, A. Miyashita, S. A. Adamo

This study shows that B. burgdorferi-infected adult female Ixodes scapularis ticks have higher overwintering survival than uninfected ticks, potentially contributing to tick population growth and range expansion.

Ribosome stalling during selenoprotein translation exposes a ferroptosis vulnerability in cancer

Z. Li, L. Ferguson, K. K. Deol, M. A. Roberts, L. Magtanong, M. C. Bassik, S. J. Dixon, N. Ingolia, J. Olzmann

The paper identifies LRP8 as a ferroptosis resistance factor in cancer, showing that its loss causes ribosome stalling during GPX4 translation, exposing a vulnerability in cancer cells.
