Autoimmune CD4+T cells Cause Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

Kaitlin K. Scholand, Paola A. Guevara Montoya, Emre Aksan…·Cintia Sade de Paiva

This study shows that autoimmune CD4+T cells can cause meibomian gland dysfunction and that regulatory T cells can prevent this damage.

Molecular determinants of low affinity complexes formed by the electrical synapse proteins Connexin36 (Cx36) and ZO-1

Stephan Tetenborg, Fatemeh Ariakia, Nikki Allyn Brantley…·John O’Brien

This study identifies molecular determinants of weak PDZ1/Cx36 interactions, showing that specific residues and phosphorylation regulate electrical synapse stability.
