Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 53, 24 September 2026.
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

Hippocampal snRNA‐seq in Collaborative Cross reveals molecular signatures of cognitive resilience independent of chronological aging

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Genetic factors contribute to variability in age‐related cognitive decline, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying cognitive resilience remain poorly understood. METHODS We performed single‐nucleus RNA sequencing on hippocampal tissue from 107 genetically diverse Collaborative Cross mice across three ages (6, 12, and 18 months ...

GJA1 depletion causes ciliary defects and abnormal laterality

open access: yes, 2018
Gap junction protein alpha 1 (GJA1), also known as Connexin 43 (CX43), is the most common and a major subunit of the gap junction complex. In the cytoplasm, the C-terminal domain of GJA1 protein regulates the cytoskeletal network, including actin and ...

Connexin 43 is required for the maintenance of mitochondrial integrity in brown adipose tissue

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
We investigated the role of connexin 43 (Cx43) in maintaining the integrity of mitochondria in brown adipose tissue (BAT). The functional effects of Cx43 were evaluated using inducible, adipocyte-specific Cx43 knockout in mice (Gja1 adipoq KO) and by ...

Connexin 43 regulates intercellular mitochondrial transfer from human mesenchymal stromal cells to chondrocytes

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy
Background The phenomenon of intercellular mitochondrial transfer from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has shown promise for improving tissue healing after injury and has potential for treating degenerative diseases like osteoarthritis (OA).
