TOMM40 and TOMM22 of the Translocase Outer Mitochondrial Membrane Complex rescue statin-impaired mitochondrial dynamics, morphology, and mitophagy in skeletal myotubes

This study shows that statin-induced downregulation of TOMM40 and TOMM22 disrupts mitochondrial dynamics, morphology, and mitophagy in skeletal myotubes, and overexpression of these genes rescues these effects.

Spatial organization of nuclear pores in Xenopus laevis oocytes

The paper studies the spatial organization of nuclear pores in Xenopus laevis oocytes using super-resolution imaging and simulations, finding that their arrangement is governed by octagonal symmetry rather than pore-pore interactions.

The need to harmonize insecticide resistance testing: methodology, intensity concentrations and molecular mechanisms evaluated in Aedes aegypti populations in Central America and Hispaniola

This study evaluates insecticide resistance in Aedes aegypti across Central America and Hispaniola, finding widespread resistance to pyrethroids and organophosphates, and identifies the V1016I kdr mutation as a key mechanism.
