Enteropathogenic E. coli-mediated Fast and Coordinated Ca2+ responses regulate NF-κB activation

This study shows EPEC induces fast, coordinated Ca2+ responses via eATP, leading to reduced NF-κB activation through dampened O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine modification.

Optimizing information transmission in neural induction constrains cell surface contacts of ascidian embryos

The paper investigates how optimizing information transmission between FGF and ERK signaling in ascidian embryos depends on cell surface contact geometry, finding that optimal contacts align with experimental observations.

Model of neural induction in the ascidian embryo

The paper develops a mathematical model showing that geometry controls neural-epidermal cell fate in ascidian embryos through ERK signaling and Otx gene expression.
