Discovery and engineering of the antibody response against a prominent skin commensal

The paper identifies an antibody response against Staphylococcus epidermidis and shows how it can be engineered for therapeutic vaccination.

mDia2 is an important mediator of MRTF-A-dependent regulation of breast cancer cell migration

This study identifies mDia2 as a mediator of MRTF-A-dependent breast cancer cell migration and links MRTF activity to malignancy, suggesting it as a therapeutic target.

Breast cancer cells promote osteoclast differentiation in an MRTF-dependent paracrine manner

This study shows that MRTF in breast cancer cells promotes osteoclast differentiation via paracrine signaling, enhancing bone metastasis, and suggests MRTF inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy.

Differential CpG methylation at Nnat in the early establishment of beta cell heterogeneity

This study identifies differential CpG methylation at the Nnat gene as a mechanism establishing beta cell heterogeneity during development and its potential role in diabetes.

Directing iPSC Differentiation into iTenocytes using Combined Scleraxis Overexpression and Cyclic Loading

This study differentiates iPSC-derived MSCs into tenocytes using Scleraxis overexpression and mechanical stretch, showing improved tendon marker expression and ECM alignment compared to BM-MSCs.
