Integrating Astrocytes in the Sleep–Wake Cycle: The Time Is Now

open access: yesBioEssays, EarlyView.
Astrocytes actively regulate sleep homeostatic and circadian rheostatic processes, underpinning the sleep–wake cycle. By acting as context‐dependent integrators of internal state and rhythmic environmental inputs, they modulate the encoding properties of neuronal circuitries and contribute to salient temporal representations in the brain.

The Allosteric Mechanism of G‐Protein‐Coupled Receptors is Induced Fit, Not Conformational Selection

open access: yesBioEssays, EarlyView.
Allosteric signaling of G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) involves a population shift from inactive to active receptor conformations upon binding of ligand agonists. Kinetic and structural data indicate that this population shift is induced by ligand binding to inactive receptor conformations prior to the conformational change from inactive to active.

Functional CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout screening of the genetic determinants of human fibroblast migration propensity

open access: yesBiotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Directional cell migration plays a central role in a wide range of physiological and pathological conditions, such as embryonic development or tumor metastasis. Steps involved in cell migration include cell polarization, formation of membrane protrusions at the cell front side and adhesion disassembly at the rear side, and a general ...

P-Rex1 limits the agonist-induced internalization of GPCRs independently of its Rac-GEF activity

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: The guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) P-Rex1 mediates G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling by activating the small GTPase Rac. We show here that P-Rex1 also controls GPCR trafficking.

Lactylation in cancer biology: Unlocking new avenues for research and therapy

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Lactylation, a newly identified post‐translational modification, plays a multifaceted role in cancer biology by integrating epigenetic and non‐epigenetic mechanisms. This review summarizes the latest research progress on lactylation, including its functions in epigenetic regulation and its broader impact on cellular processes.
