Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Osteoclasts are differentiated from precursors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage originated from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells and are the sole bone-resorbing cells in the body. Osteoclast differentiation is thought to require M-CSF (macrophage colony-stimulating factor) and RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Gut microbiota modulates CNS barrier function in murine model for multiple sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that has been associated with dysfunction of the protective barriers in the central nervous system (CNS), allowing harmful immune cells to enter.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Bioactive Dendrimer Drugs As Potential Therapeutic Treatments For Inflammation
Chronic or widespread inflammation has been implicated in the pathophysiology of several human disease states, including adult systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and Alzheimer's disease.

The involvement of necroptosis in the control of influenza A virus (IAV) infection has been reported in multiple studies. Downstream of the nucleic acid sensor ZBP1, RIPK3 kinase activity is critically involved in the induction of necroptotic cell death ...

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
