This study identifies GRK2's role in hair follicle homeostasis by showing its deletion leads to cyst formation, stem cell disruption, and hair loss in mice.

The paper shows that distinct neurexin-cerebellin complexes regulate AMPA- and NMDA-receptor responses differently across neural circuits without affecting synapse formation.

This study shows that calsyntenin-3 deletion in Purkinje cells reduces inhibitory synapses while increasing excitatory parallel-fiber synapses, suggesting a novel role in regulating excitatory/inhibitory balance.

The paper reveals a cis/trans-protein interaction network that organizes reciprocal dendro-dendritic synapses by compartmentalizing neurexin-based trans-synaptic complexes.

This study shows that neurexin-1 in astrocytes and neurons forms distinct nanodomains at synapses, enabling compartment-specific signaling that differentially regulates synapse function.

In suspended human keratinocytes, five induced phosphatases dampen ERK to drive differentiation commitment, opposed by DUSP10, in a time-rewired network that renders commitment an unstable switch.
