Surface glia predominantly contribute to the development of ALS/FTD in Drosophila model

The paper shows surface glia are key in C9orf72-mediated ALS/FTD in Drosophila using genetic tools to mark glial subtypes.

Gut microbiota analysis of the western honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) infested with the mite Varroa destructor reveals altered bacterial and archaeal community

This study analyzes the gut microbiota of western honeybees infected with Varroa destructor, finding altered bacterial and archaeal communities in larvae and adult bees.

Targeting TRIP13 in Wilms Tumor with Nuclear Export Inhibitors

This study identifies XPO1 inhibition with selinexor as a potential therapy for favorable histology Wilms tumors, showing synergy with doxorubicin in preclinical models.

Neuropeptide relay between SIFa signaling controls the experience-dependent mating duration of male Drosophila

The paper identifies 7 neuropeptides in SIFa receptor-positive cells that regulate mating duration plasticity in male Drosophila through neuropeptide relay mechanisms.

Renal medullary carcinomas depend upon SMARCB1 loss and are sensitive to proteasome inhibition

This study identifies SMARCB1 loss as critical for RMC survival and shows proteasome inhibition as a potential therapeutic strategy.
