Edge curvature drives endoplasmic reticulum reorganization and dictates epithelial migration mode

Rawal et al. combine intracellular cartography and biophysical modelling to reveal how edge curvature governs endoplasmic reticulum (ER) morphology, showing that curvature-dependent ER reorganization directs distinct modes of epithelial cell migration.

Compositional diversity of rehabilitated tropical lands supports multiple ecosystem services and buffers uncertainties

Land use becomes more diverse when it considers uncertain interactions of multiple ecosystem services. Here, Knoke and colleagues show that uncertainty plays a larger role if ecosystem services are optimized only for a single service, or if services correlate.

Lactate signalling leads to aggregation of immune-inflammatory hotspots and SLC5A12 blockade promotes their resolution

Certo, Pontarini et al. provide insight into the metabolic requirements of ectopic lymphoid structure (ELS) assembly in the context of autoimmunity, and show that blocking lactate uptake by SLC5A12 offers therapeutic benefits in a mouse model of Sjögren’s disease.

Coral reef restoration can reduce coastal contamination and pollution hazards

Risk of sewage and petrochemical contamination from flooding along 460 km long coastline of Florida can be reduced by coral reef restoration, with a potential economic benefit of about $3.5 million US dollars, according to an analysis of flood risks and critical infrastructure.

Multi-targeted ¹H/¹⁹F MRI unmasks specific danger patterns for emerging cardiovascular disorders

The prediction of major cardiovascular events is still an unsolved problem. Here, the authors present a multi-color, multi-targeted non-invasive imaging technology that allows reliable in vivo identification of silent but prognostically highly relevant danger patterns prior to myocardial infarction in mice.

Activated protein C protects from GvHD via PAR2/PAR3 signalling in regulatory T-cells

Graft-vs.-host disease is a complication of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Here the authors show that activated protein C signals via PAR2/PAR3 to expand T_reg cells, mitigating the disease in mice.

Feedback between mechanosensitive signaling and active forces governs endothelial junction integrity

Gap formation in the vasculature underpins immune and tumour cell infiltration. Here the authors propose a chemo-mechanical model to analyse how feedback between mechanosensitive signalling, active cellular forces and adhesion governs the breakdown, recovery, and integrity of endothelial junctions.

Synthesis and characterization of chemically fueled supramolecular materials driven by carbodiimide-based fuels

This protocol describes the setup and characterization of a supramolecular assembly of small precursors into colloids or fibers driven by carbodiimide fuels. When the fuel is spent, the reaction reverses to form the initial peptides or amino acids.

Immunogenetic-pathogen networks shrink in Tome’s spiny rat, a generalist rodent inhabiting disturbed landscapes

A study on genetic diversity and multiple pathogen infections in wild rodents and reservoir hosts shows human habitat disturbance also adversely affects generalist species by limiting their adaptive potential and facilitating pathogen spill-over.
