The paper uses correlative light and electron microscopy to reveal the ultrastructural organization of the inactive X chromosome in human cells.

The paper identifies VACs as specialized transport organelles delivering a preassembled apical cortex to the AMIS, enabling lumen initiation, and highlights PatJ's role in coordinating this process with cell-cell junctions.

This paper shows Homer proteins form condensates that link cell polarity to YAP-Wnt signaling by modulating condensate structure and pathway activity.

The paper shows that acute chromatin decompaction increases nuclear stiffness in some cells but not others, depending on their ability to recompact chromatin.

This study identifies ARHGAP12 as a regulator of the paracellular leak pathway by suppressing F-actin assembly at tight junctions without affecting ion flux.
