Tagless LysoIP method for molecular profiling of lysosomal content in clinical samples

The paper develops a tagless LysoIP method to isolate lysosomes from clinical samples and human cell lines, revealing glycerophosphodiesters as potential biomarkers for lysosomal storage disorders.

Relieving the transfusion tissue traffic jam: a network model of radial transport in conifer needles

The paper develops a network model to show how transfusion tissue in conifer needles facilitates radial transport of sugar and water by separating their pathways, mitigating flow bottlenecks.

Second Harmonic Generation Imaging Reveals Entanglement of Collagen Fibers in the Elephant Trunk Skin Dermis

The paper uses second harmonic generation microscopy to analyze collagen fiber organization in elephant trunk skin, revealing a bimodal distribution and entanglement that enables both flexibility and strength.

The aerial epidermis is a major site of quinolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in narrow-leafed lupin

This study identifies the leaf epidermis as a major site of quinolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in narrow-leafed lupin using mass spectrometry imaging and RNAseq.

Biomechanical modeling of Border Collies (Canis familiaris) for insights of tail and limb use during the aerial phase of jumping

This study creates a biomechanical model of Border Collies during jumping to assess tail and limb inertial contributions, finding minimal inertial advantage from the tail.

Tracing 3D apoplasmic complexity in vascular tissue of live conifer needles by X-ray computed tomography

The paper uses X-ray computed tomography and tracers to study the 3D apoplasmic structure in conifer needles, revealing unique water transport mechanisms.

Herbivore feeding behavior validates optimal defense theory for specialized metabolites within plants

The study shows that plants allocate specialized metabolites to tissues critical for fitness, influencing herbivore feeding behavior and supporting optimal defense theory.

Ex vivo detection of SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ T cells: rapid induction, prolonged contraction, and formation of functional memory

This study identifies SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ T-cell responses, showing their rapid induction, prolonged contraction, and functional memory formation compared to antibody responses.

De novo indol-3-ylmethyl glucosinolate biosynthesis, and not long-distance transport, contributes to defence of Arabidopsis against powdery mildew

This study shows that de novo biosynthesis of indol-3-ylmethyl glucosinolates in epidermal cells contributes to antifungal defense in Arabidopsis, while long-distance transport does not.

Microglia actively remodels adult hippocampal neurogenesis through the phagocytosis secretome

The paper shows that microglia's phagocytic activity regulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis by modulating neuron production through their secretome.
