Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

Geometry-preserving vector field reconstruction of high-dimensional cell-state dynamics using ddHodge

open access: yesNature Communications
The differentiation potency of cells is governed by dynamic changes in gene expression, which can be inferred from single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. While velocity-based approaches have been used to analyze cell state changes as vector fields,

The photoswitchable cannabinoid azo‐HU308 enables optical control of Ca2+ dynamics in INS‐1 β‐cells via off‐target effects on TRPC channels

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Light activation of the photoswitchable cannabinoid ligand azo‐HU308 triggers Ca2+ influx in pancreatic β‐cells through TRPC channels, independent of CB2 cannabinoid receptors. This reveals a non‐GPCR pathway for cannabinoid modulation of β‐cell Ca2+ dynamics and establishes azo‐HU308 as an optical tool to study cannabinoid signaling through TRP ...

IRF8 and MAFB drive distinct transcriptional machineries in different resident macrophages of the central nervous system

open access: yesCommunications Biology
The central nervous system (CNS) includes anatomically distinct macrophage populations including parenchyma microglia and CNS-associated macrophages (CAMs) localized at the interfaces like meninges and perivascular space, which play specialized roles for

Naked cuticle is essential for Drosophila wing development beyond Wingless signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Naked cuticle (Nkd), a Wnt signaling inhibitor, assumes extensive roles in Drosophila wing development. Overexpressing Nkd causes smaller, crumpled wings, while also perturbing multiple signaling pathways and developmental genes. A specific region (R1S) is critical for Nkd's function as a signaling integrator, offering new insights for studying its ...

The dawn of spatiotemporal transcriptomics

open access: yesBiomedical Analysis
Gene expression of cells in the tissues is a heterogeneous and dynamic program across space and time. Spatiotemporal transcriptomics technologies have emerged as transforming tools to dissect the spatiotemporal patterns of gene regulation in diverse ...

Mycobacterial cell division arrest and smooth‐to‐rough envelope transition using CRISPRi‐mediated genetic repression systems

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing and phenotypic exploration in nontuberculous mycobacteria. In this Research Protocol, we describe approaches to control, monitor, and quantitatively assess CRISPRI‐mediated gene silencing in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus model organisms.

Plasma cell differentiation is regulated by the expression of histone variant H3.3

open access: yesNature Communications
The differentiation of B cells into plasma cells is associated with substantial transcriptional and epigenetic remodeling. H3.3 histone variant marks active chromatin via replication-independent nucleosome assembly.
