What's new? Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor survival and variable response to perioperative chemotherapy. Although histopathological features correlate with outcomes, the relationship specifically between adherens junction (AJ) protein expression and treatment response in EAC remains uncertain.

Intercellular mechanotransduction through adherens junctions in fibroblasts
Cells in mechanically active environments form extensive intercellular junctions that are important in tissue remodeling and differentiation. Currently, it is unknown how cells transmit mechanically-induced signals through intercellular junctions.

The outer limiting “membrane” (OLM) of the vertebrate retina comprises a series of heterotypic adherens junctions between the photoreceptors and the supportive Müller cells. These junctions appear to support the photoreceptors, which in teleosts, anurans,

Actin filament association at adherens junctions
The adherens junction (AJ) is a cadherin-based and actin filament associated cell-to-cell junction. AJs can contribute to tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis and their association with actin filaments is crucial for the functions. There are three types of AJs in terms of the mode of actin filament/AJ association.

ABSTRACT Although much is known about the encoding of experience, how the brain organizes neural circuits capable of learning and memory formation is largely unstudied. Canonical critical periods emerge from a convergence of maturation‐ and experience‐dependent processes.

Epithelial cells are polarized, with apical and basal compartments demarcated by tight and adherens junctions. Proper establishment of these subapical junctions is critical for normal development and histogenesis.

ABSTRACT Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) exhibit extensive genomic diversity shaped by domestication, life history and geographic origin. To advance the development of a comprehensive pangenome reference, we present new de novo genome assemblies of two genetically and ecologically distinct lines: Whale Rock (WR; wild, landlocked, Central California)

ABSTRACT Background Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiac desmosome disease, as more than 50% of affected patients carry pathogenic variants in desmosome protein‐coding genes. In this study, we focused on the role and mechanisms of pathogenic and non‐pathogenic autoantibodies against intercalated disc (ICD) proteins such as ...

Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels
Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...
