Platelet-specific TGFβ1 deficiency aggravates atherosclerosis, vascular inflammation, and hypercholesterolemia in mice

H2A.X mutants exhibit enhanced DNA demethylation in Arabidopsis thaliana

This study shows that H2A.X mutants in Arabidopsis thaliana exhibit reduced CG DNA methylation in endosperm, primarily in transposons and intergenic regions, suggesting H2A.X's role in maintaining methylation homeostasis.

Genetic architecture underlying variation in floral meristem termination in Aquilegia

This study identifies seven QTLs underlying variation in floral meristem termination timing in Aquilegia by crossing two species and analyzing gene expression patterns.

Genetic architecture of floral traits in bee- and hummingbird-pollinated sister species of Aquilegia (columbine)

The paper identifies the genetic basis of a pollination syndrome shift in Aquilegia, finding complex genetic architectures for floral color and nectar traits, and a single locus for nectar spur curvature.

Oxygen tension regulates lysosomal activation and receptor tyrosine kinase degradation

This study shows hypoxia suppresses lysosomal activation and RTK degradation, linking oxygen tension to lysosomal function and suggesting lysosomal activation as a therapeutic target in cancer.

Vav1 is essential for HIF-1α activation in vascular response to ischemic stress

This study shows Vav1 is essential for HIF-1α activation in vascular response to ischemic stress, revealing a regulatory mechanism similar to HIF-1.
