This study identifies two anti-ferroptosis pathways in iron-recycling macrophages that prevent cell death and maintain iron homeostasis, revealing a key role for ferroptosis in iron deficiency anemia.

This study shows that disrupted migration of inhibitory neurons leads to persistent functional deficits in cortical networks, linking migratory guidance to circuit integrity.

This study shows that yolk sac-derived Kupffer cells regulate neonatal hepatocyte metabolism via Igf1 signaling, essential for glycogen storage and TCA cycle function.

This study shows that primary cilia dysfunction in Bbs8-/- mice reduces adipose stem cells and promotes fibrogenic progenitors via disrupted Hedgehog signaling, affecting adipogenesis and lipid uptake.

This study shows that Creld2 is essential for maintaining liver metabolism homeostasis by linking the unfolded protein response (UPR) to metabolic regulation, with sex-specific effects in fatty liver disease.

The paper compares behavioral traits between C57Bl/6 and 129S4 mice, establishes a new Cre mouse line for astrocyte study, and investigates calcium signaling and gene expression in astrocytes.
