CD74+ fibroblasts proliferate upon mechanical stretching to promote angiogenesis in keloid

This study identifies CD74+ fibroblasts as key drivers of stretch-induced keloid progression through proliferation, angiogenesis, and migration.

Granzyme B-based CAR T cells block metastasis by eliminating circulating tumor cells

This study develops GrB-CAR T cells targeting mHSP70 to eliminate CTCs and inhibit metastasis in solid tumors.

Nuclear cytoophidia assembly represses transcriptional activity to control skeletal development and homeostasis

This study identifies nuclear cytoophidia as regulators of Impdh2 transcriptional activity, impacting skeletal development and homeostasis through effects on endochondral ossification and osteoclast function.

Successful spread of mcr-1-bearing IncX4 plasmids is associated with variant in replication protein of IncX4 plasmids

The paper shows that IncX4 plasmids with pir-1 have higher mcr-1 expression and fitness burden but lower invasion rates compared to pir-2 plasmids, explaining why mcr-1 is absent from pir-2 plasmids.

Conservation of the ancestral function of GTSF1 in transposon silencing in unicellular Paramecium

This study shows that GTSF1 functions as a PIWI cofactor in transposon silencing in the unicellular eukaryote Paramecium, conserving an ancestral role observed in metazoans.

Olfactory learning in Drosophila requires O-GlcNAcylation of mushroom body ribosomal subunits

This study identifies O-GlcNAcylation of mushroom body ribosomal subunits as essential for olfactory learning in Drosophila, showing that reducing O-GlcNAcylation impairs learning.

Universal chimeric Fcγ receptor T cells with appropriate affinity for IgG1 antibody exhibit optimal antitumor efficacy

This study evaluates the impact of Fcγ receptor affinity on CAR T cell efficacy and safety, finding that moderate affinity provides optimal antitumor activity while high affinity causes toxicity.

A novel anti-PD-L1/IL-15 immunocytokine overcomes resistance to PD-L1 blockade and elicits potent antitumor immunity

This study develops an immunocytokine (LH01) combining anti-PD-L1 and IL-15 to enhance antitumor immunity and overcome resistance to PD-L1 blockade in mouse models.

Inbreeding depression in an outbred nine-spined stickleback (Pungitius pungitius) population

The paper documents inbreeding depression in an outbred nine-spined stickleback population, showing a significant decrease in offspring survival with increasing parental IBD sharing and an average inbreeding load of 15.896.

The bladder microbiome, metabolome, cytokines, and phenotypes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

This study examines the bladder microbiome, metabolome, and cytokines in SLE patients, finding associations between microbial composition and disease-related metabolites and cytokines.

Selection and evaluation of qPCR reference genes for expression analysis in the tiny egg parasitoid wasp, Trichogramma dendrolimi Matsumura (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae)

This study identifies suitable reference genes for qPCR in Trichogramma dendrolimi across developmental stages, tissues, sex, and temperature conditions.

ARID1A loss derepresses human endogenous retrovirus-H to modulate BRD4-dependent transcription

This study shows ARID1A loss activates HERVH, which promotes tumor growth by modulating BRD4-dependent transcription in colorectal cancer.

A spatial and cellular distribution of neurotropic virus infection in the mouse brain revealed by fMOST and single cell RNA-seq

This study uses fMOST and scRNA-seq to map the spatial and cellular distribution of rabies virus in the mouse brain, revealing infection in multiple nuclei and non-neuronal cells.

Discovery of a molecular glue promoting CDK12-DDB1 interaction to trigger Cyclin K degradation

This paper discovers a molecular glue, HQ461, that promotes CDK12-DDB1 interaction, leading to Cyclin K degradation and cell death.

A novel antiviral lncRNA EDAL shields a T309 O-GlcNAcylation site to promote EZH2 degradation

This paper identifies a long non-coding RNA, EDAL, that inhibits neurotropic viruses by promoting EZH2 degradation through O-GlcNAcylation site interference.

HIV-1 Vpr Degrades TET2 to Suppress IRF7 and Interferon Expression in Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells

This study shows HIV-1 Vpr suppresses IRF7 and IFN-I expression in pDCs by degrading TET2, thereby enhancing HIV-1 replication.
