"Riding with the Wnt": Investigating the role of Wnt signaling in cell migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
During my PhD, my goal was to achieve a better understanding of how animals develop from embryogenesis to adulthood. Specifically, I studied how cells acquire and control their movement to sculpt the final shape of an organism.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Systems Biology and the Integration of Mechanistic Explanation and Mathematical Explanation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The paper discusses how systems biology is working toward complex accounts that integrate explanation in terms of mechanisms and explanation by mathematical models—which some philosophers have viewed as rival models of explanation.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

On the origin of mitosis-derived human embryo aneuploidy

open access: yesNature Communications
Chromosome segregation errors are common in the early stages of human embryonic development. By examining the first mitotic divisions of human embryos using live cell imaging, three recent studies identify spindle architecture and positioning features ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Molecular insights into the regulation of GNPTαβ by LYSET

open access: yesNature Communications
In vertebrates, newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes traffic to lysosomes through the mannose-6-phosphate (M6P) pathway. The Golgi membrane protein LYSET was recently discovered to regulate lysosome biogenesis by controlling the level of GlcNAc-1 ...

Willin, an upstream component of the Hippo signaling pathway, orchestrates mammalian peripheral nerve fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Willin/FRMD6 was first identified in the rat sciatic nerve, which is composed of neurons, Schwann cells, and fibroblasts. Willin is an upstream component of the Hippo signaling pathway, which results in the inactivation of the transcriptional coactivator

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

The influence of biological sex and sex hormones on bile acid synthesis and cholesterol homeostasis

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences, 2019
Obesity and elevated serum lipids are associated with a threefold increase in the risk of developing atherosclerosis, a condition that underlies stroke, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death.
