LRRC8A Regulates Outer Hair Cell Volume and Electromotility and is Required for Hearing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies LRRC8A‐dependent volume‐regulated anion channels (VRACs) as essential for cochlear outer hair cells' electromotility and auditory signal amplification. LRRC8A deficiency disrupts cell volume control, impairs auditory sensitivity, and causes deafness, while targeted LRRC8A re‐expression restores auditory function.

Gal3‐CaN‐Smurf1 Complex Sequestrates FLCN‐FNIPs to Facilitate TFEB Activation in Response to Endomembrane Damage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The schematic diagram illustrates the role of the recruitment of Gal3‐CaN‐Smurf1 complex in maintaining lysosomal membrane homeostasis upon damage. On the one hand, the Gal3‐CaN‐Smurf1 complex sequesters FLCN‐FNIPs to block the activation of RagC, where the active form RagC‐GDP is responsible for TFEB phosphorylation.

Cortico‐Striatal‐Midbrain Circuit Dysregulation Underlying MK‐801 Induced Impulsivity and the Ameliorative Effects of SEP

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Impulsivity is a symptom across multiple psychiatric disorders, yet its neural basis remains elusive. This study shows that the NMDAR antagonist MK‐801 elevates dopamine release and disrupts neuronal selectivity in the nucleus accumbens, leading to impulsive behavior.
