This study shows the PIDDosome restricts cardiomyocyte polyploidization during postnatal heart development through p21/Cdkn1a, independent of p53.

This study shows that overexpressing clusterin (CLU) in T cells reduces exhaustion markers and improves their function against Ewing sarcoma.

This study identifies RACB interaction partners in barley-Bh pathosystem and shows their roles in disease resistance or susceptibility through lipid interactions.

This study reveals the structural basis of OAS2 regulation and its antiviral function, showing how it discriminates RNA length and restricts viruses like coronaviruses.

This study shows that ferroptosis and apoptosis can intersect, and BH3-mimetics can either enhance or suppress cell death depending on context.

This study shows caspase-3 cleaves activated MAVS to suppress spontaneous innate immune signaling in non-apoptotic cells.

This study quantifies the transport properties of canonical PIN-FORMED proteins and shows the loop domain's role in auxin transport beyond activation.

The study identifies the role of Clade IB ZmRALF2/3 in regulating cell wall integrity during maize pollen tube growth through interactions with receptor kinases, co-receptors, and cell wall proteins.
