Robust planar morphogenesis in leaf-like organs requires callose-dependent coordination of division and growth

This study shows that callose-dependent coordination between cell division and growth is essential for planar morphogenesis in moss phyllids.

Lysinoalanine crosslinking is a conserved post-translational modification in the spirochete flagellar hook

The paper identifies lysinoalanine (Lal) crosslinks in spirochete flagellar hooks across multiple species, showing they are conserved and necessary for motility.

Combining Focal-ERG, Fluorescein Angiography, and SD-OCT for Retinal Neurovascular Analysis in a Mouse OIR-Model.

The paper combines FA, SD-OCT, and focal-ERG to analyze retinal structure-function relationships in a mouse OIR model, showing non-uniform retinal damage and enabling longitudinal tracking of treated and untreated zones.

Differences in Activation of Intracellular Signalling in Primary Human Retinal Endothelial Cells Between Isoforms of VEGFA-165.

This study compares the activation of MAPK and AKT signaling pathways by VEGFA165a and VEGFA165b in primary human retinal endothelial cells, finding stronger activation by VEGFA165a at lower doses.

Diet Modifies Colonic Microbiota and CD4+ T Cell Repertoire to Trigger Flares in a Novel Model of Colitis Induced by IL-23

This study shows that diet modifies the microbiota and CD4+ T cell repertoire in a mouse model of IL-23-induced colitis, leading to disease flares.
