This study identifies Cfap410a as a novel component of the Drosophila ciliary transition zone and shows its cooperative function with Cby in TZ assembly, with tissue-specific requirements.

This study identifies Alms1a and Alms1b as regulators of centriole duplication in Drosophila by enabling the Plk4-Ana2 amplification loop and Sas-6 recruitment.

The paper investigates mechanical properties of interfollicular stem cells (ISCs) and their niche during aging, finding ISCs are stiffer than other basal cells and their mechanical environment deteriorates with age.

EASYSTIFF measures skin stiffness in vivo, providing compartment-specific biomechanical data to assess aging and monitor cosmetic product effects.
