Fibroblast depletion reveals mammalian epithelial resilience across neonatal and adult stages

This study shows that epidermal stem cell proliferative capacity remains unaffected by fibroblast depletion in both adult and neonatal skin, highlighting robust compensatory mechanisms.

Alveolar macrophages initiate the spatially targeted neutrophil recruitment during nanoparticle inhalation

The paper shows that alveolar macrophages recruit neutrophils to sites of nanoparticle deposition in the lung through motility, phagocytosis, and cytokine release.

eATP/P2X7R axis drives nanoparticle induced neutrophil recruitment in the pulmonary microcirculation

This study identifies the eATP/P2X7R axis as a driver of nanoparticle-induced neutrophil recruitment in the pulmonary microcirculation using intravital microscopy in mice.

FUS controls muscle differentiation and structure through LLPS mediated recruitment of MEF2 and ETV5

This study identifies FUS's role in muscle differentiation and structure through phase separation-mediated recruitment of ETV5 and MEF2, showing its dysfunction in FUS-ALS.

In vitro spatiotemporal reconstruction of human skeletal muscle organogenesis

This paper introduces a 3D in vitro system to model human skeletal muscle development and identifies a pool of myogenic progenitors that can resist specification and expand in vitro.

Glial-dependent clustering of voltage-gated ion channels in Drosophila precedes myelin formation

The paper shows that in Drosophila, voltage-gated ion channels cluster in glia-dependent regions before myelin formation, mirroring vertebrate saltatory conduction evolution.
