This study shows that aging reduces 2,6-linked sialic acids on T cells, leading to exhaustion and impaired immune function.

The paper shows that germline mitochondria mediate neuron-to-peripheral UPRMT signaling in C. elegans by responding to mitokines like WNT and serotonin and regulating lipid metabolic pathways.

The paper uses CRISPR-Cas9 screens in vitro and in vivo to identify gene knockouts that enhance neural stem cell activation in aged mice, finding that GLUT4 knockout is a top rejuvenating intervention.

The paper shows that dFezf coordinates laminar-specific connectivity in Drosophila by both cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic mechanisms.

Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens in human cells reveal mechanisms and targets for ALS-associated C9orf72 dipeptide repeat protein toxicity.
