The paper identifies Vcam1-expressing endothelial and stromal cells as critical for HSPC retention in the zebrafish CHT niche through Itga4-Vcam1 interactions.

This study shows that Brucella-induced spondyloarthritis in SKG mice results from both persistent bacterial infection and host immune reactivity, with species-specific differences in disease progression.

This study uses real-time imaging in zebrafish to show that macrophage protrusive motility, regulated by Rac2, influences melanoma invasion.

This study shows that ARPC1B in both neutrophils and endothelial cells regulates neutrophil motility, with endothelial ARPC1B being sufficient to drive neutrophil behavior.

The paper investigates the effect of a TAAR1 gene polymorphism on drug craving in individuals with methamphetamine dependence and finds a significant association with increased craving.
