A Sendai virus-based expression system directs efficient induction of chondrocytes by transcription factor-mediated reprogramming

Scientific Reports
Cartilage rarely heals spontaneously once damaged. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease among the elderly; however, effective treatment for OA is currently lacking.

Direct screening for chromatin status on DNA barcodes in yeast delineates the regulome of H3K79 methylation by Dot1

eLife, 2016
Given the frequent misregulation of chromatin in cancer, it is important to understand the cellular mechanisms that regulate chromatin structure. However, systematic screening for epigenetic regulators is challenging and often relies on laborious assays ...

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Regulation of gene expression by micrornas : targeting specificity, kinetics and function [PDF]

, 2011
Summary: Understanding gene regulation is a central question of molecular biology. For decades, gene expression was thought to be controlled by a complex network of proteins called transcription factors.

ARID1A promotes genomic stability through protecting telomere cohesion

Nature Communications, 2019
Cells with ARID1A mutations exhibit mitotic defects, yet show surprisingly low levels of copy number defects. Here, Zhao et al. resolve this issue by showing that ARID1A loss causes defects in telomere cohesion, which selects against gross alterations in

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

An R2R3 MYB transcription factor associated with regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway in Rosaceae [PDF]

, 2010
Background The control of plant anthocyanin accumulation is via transcriptional regulation of the genes encoding the biosynthetic enzymes. A key activator appears to be an R2R3 MYB transcription factor.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

RNA-containing extracellular vesicles in infection

RNA Biology
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound particles released by cells that play vital roles in intercellular communication by transporting diverse biologically active molecules, including RNA molecules, including mRNA, miRNA, lncRNA, and other ...
