The effects of resistance training on denervated myofibers, senescent cells, and associated protein markers in middle-aged adults

B. Ruple, M. Mattingly, J. Godwin, M. McIntosh, N. Kontos, A. Agyin-Birikorang, J. M. Michel, D. Plotkin, S.-Y. Chen, T. Ziegenfuss, A. Fruge, L. B. Gladden, A. Robinson, C. B. Mobley, A. L. Mackey, M. Roberts

This study examines how resistance training affects denervated myofibers, senescent cells, and related proteins in middle-aged adults, finding increased muscle-nerve communication proteins but no significant changes in senescent cell content or SASP proteins.

A novel deep proteomic approach in human skeletal muscle unveils distinct molecular signatures affected by aging and resistance training

M. Roberts, B. Ruple, J. Godwin, M. McIntosh, S.-Y. Chen, N. Kontos, A. Agyin-Birikorang, J. M. Michel, D. Plotkin, M. Mattingly, C. B. Mobley, T. Ziegenfuss, A. Fruge, A. Kavazis

This study uses a novel deep proteomic approach to analyze aging and resistance training effects on skeletal muscle proteomes, revealing distinct molecular changes in myofibrillar and non-myofibrillar fractions.

In vivo screening of tumor-hepatocyte interactions identifies Plexin B2 as a gatekeeper of liver metastasis

C. Borrelli, M. Roberts, D. Eletto, A. Lafzi, J. A. Kretz, H. Fazilaty, M.-D. Hussherr, E. Guido Vinzoni, K. Handler, J. Michler, S. Adivarahan, S. Piscuoglio, X. Ficht, A. E. Moor

The paper identifies Plexin B2 in hepatocytes as a critical regulator of liver metastasis by promoting epithelial traits in tumor cells through Rac1 signaling.

Towards modelling cold-water coral reef-scale crumbling: Including morphological variability in mechanical surrogate models

M. Pena Fernandez, J. Williams, J. V. Buscher, J. Titschak, M. Roberts, S. Hennige, U. Wolfram

The paper develops mechanical surrogate models to predict reef-crumbling in cold-water corals by accounting for morphological variability and scale-dependent mechanical properties.

Effects of High-Volume versus High-Load Resistance Training on Skeletal Muscle Growth and Molecular Adaptations

C. Vann, C. Sexton, S. Osburn, M. Smith, C. Haun, M. Rumbley, P. Mumford, B. Ferguson, N. Montgomery, C. Fox, B. Ruple, J. McKendry, J. McLeod, A. Bashir, R. Beyers, , M. Roberts

This study compares high-volume and high-load resistance training on muscle growth and molecular markers, finding similar hypertrophic and strength adaptations despite differences in protein synthesis rates.

Low immunogenicity of malaria pre-erythrocytic stages can be overcome by vaccination

K. Mueller, M. P. Gibbins, M. Roberts, A. Reyes-Sandoval, A. Hill, S. Draper, K. Matuschewski, O. Silvie, J. Hafalla

This study shows that poor immunogenicity of EEF antigens does not prevent their susceptibility to CD8+ T cell killing, challenging the assumption that immunogenicity is a key criterion for vaccine development.
