Vacuolar Na+/H+ NHX-Type Antiporters Are Required for Cellular K+ Homeostasis, Microtubule Organization and Directional Root Growth

Plants, 2014
Na+/H+ antiporters (NHXs) are integral membrane transporters that catalyze the electroneutral exchange of K+ or Na+ for H+ and are implicated in cell expansion, development, pH and ion homeostasis and salt tolerance.

Phase‐Separation of YAP Mediates AJUBA Super Enhancer Activation to Promote Aberrant Mitosis in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
YAP undergoes phase separation to activate the AJUBA super‐enhancer, driving aberrant mitosis through spindle checkpoint dysregulation in breast cancer. This study uncovers a mechanistic link between YAP condensates, super‐enhancer activation, and aneuploidy formation.

A continuous model for microtubule dynamics with catastrophe, rescue and nucleation processes

, 2009
Microtubules are a major component of the cytoskeleton distinguished by highly dynamic behavior both in vitro and in vivo. We propose a general mathematical model that accounts for the growth, catastrophe, rescue and nucleation processes in the ...

Metformin Restores Mitochondrial Function and Neurogenesis in POLG Patient‐Derived Brain Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived POLG‐mutant cortical organoids reveal neuronal subtype‐specific mitochondrial and synaptic defects, with dopaminergic neurons most affected. Metformin treatment restores neuronal identity, mitochondrial function, and excitability, increased mtDNA maintenance, and reprogrammed metabolism via TCA and redox pathways.

Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing of Retina Reveals Nna1 Upregulation in Myopic Diabetic Retinopathy as a Protective Factor Against Diabetic Damage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates a schematic overview of the mechanistic pathways. The relationship between myopia and DR has long been of clinical interest. In diabetic mice, Nna1 expression is downregulated, whereas in diabetic mice with FDM, Nna1 expression is upregulated–particularly in Müller cells–accompanied by decreased vascular endothelial growth ...
