Peptide signaling at the intersection of growth, nutrient sensing, and stress responses
SUMMARY Plant endogenous peptides emerge as central regulators of multiple aspects of plant physiology. They are secreted from cells and perceived by plasma membrane localized receptors, which activate downstream signaling pathways to regulate growth and development. In addition, endogenous peptides coordinate physiology with their environment.

Loss of spermatogonia and wide-spread DNA methylation defects in newborn male mice deficient in DNMT3L [PDF]
Background: Formation of haploid spermatozoa capable of fertilization requires proper programming of epigenetic information. Exactly how DNMT3L (DNA methyltransferase 3-Like), a postulated regulator of DNA methyltransferase activity, contributes to DNA ...

Abstract figure legend AII amacrine cells are an important class of interneuron in the vertebrate retina. In addition to traditional chemical synapses these cells communicate with other neurons and with each other via electrical synapses. (A) Electrical synapse strength between AII amacrine cells was measured using dual whole‐cell patch‐clamp ...

Identification of TNFSF13, SPATC1L, SLC22A25 and SALL4 as novel susceptibility loci for atrial fibrillation by an exome‑wide association study [PDF]
An exome‑wide association study (EWAS) was performed to identify genetic variants, particularly low‑frequency or rare coding variants with a moderate to large effect size, that confer susceptibility to atrial fibrillation in Japanese. The EWAS for atrial

Molecular characterization of a rare phenotype of X-linked retinoschisis with angle-closure glaucoma
A 11-year-old boy presented with complaints of blurred vision and on evaluation was found to have X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) with angle-closure glaucoma. Clinical and genetic evaluation of first-degree family members was done. His brother had a milder
