The paper uses EM-based spatial connectomics to reveal the 3D structure of the mouse liver's sympathetic network, showing it is a meshwork with exposed varicosities and diverse cellular contacts.

This study identifies TGF-β as a critical microenvironmental driver of NF1-associated tumour formation and shows its inhibition can prevent tumour development.

This study shows N-cadherin regulates both adhesion and repulsion in Schwann cell collective migration by trafficking Slit2/Slit3 signals, with repulsion independent of N-cadherin homodimerization.

This study identifies macrophages as key components of the blood-nerve barrier (BNB) that reinforce the barrier by engulfing leaked material, contrasting with the blood-brain barrier (BBB) which relies more on endothelial cells.
