TMBIM-2 links neuronal mitochondrial stress to systemic adaptation via calcium signaling

Written by Posted on Less than 0 min read

Mitochondrial function is critical for neuronal activity and systemic metabolic adaptation. In this issue, Li et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202408050) identify TMBIM-2 as a key regulator of calcium dynamics, coordinating the neuronal-to-intestinal mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt), pathogen-induced aversive learning, and aging.

Real-time imaging reveals a role for macrophage protrusive motility in melanoma invasion

Macrophages are primary cells of the innate immune system that mediate tumor progression. However, the motile behavior of macrophages and interactions with tumor cells are not well understood. Here, we exploit the optical transparency of larval zebrafish and perform real-time imaging of macrophage–melanoma interactions. We found that macrophages are highly motile in the tumor microenvironment. […]

Ca 2+ binding to Esyt modulates membrane contact site density in Drosophila photoreceptors

Membrane contact sites (MCS) between the plasma membrane (PM) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) regulate Ca2+ influx. However, the mechanisms by which cells modulate ER–PM MCS density are not understood, and the role of Ca2+, if any, in regulating these is unknown. We report that in Drosophila photoreceptors, MCS density is regulated by the Ca2+ channels, […]

Koalas’ Catch-22 | ScienceDaily

New research from the University of Sydney highlights the unique existential dilemma faced by Sydney’s koala population. These populations in south-western Sydney are among the very few in New South Wales (NSW) still free of chlamydia, a highly contagious disease causing infertility that has severely diminished populations elsewhere in the continent’s eastern states. However, analysis […]

Large herbivores such as elephants, bison and moose contribute to tree diversity

Using global satellite data, a research team has mapped the tree cover of the world’s protected areas. The study shows that regions with abundant large herbivores in many settings have a more variable tree cover, which is expected to benefit biodiversity overall. Maintaining species-rich and resilient ecosystems is key to preserving biodiversity and mitigating climate […]

Large differences in water-seeking ability found in U.S. corn varieties

A corn plant knows how to find water in soil with the very tips of its roots, but some varieties, including many used for breeding high-yielding corn in the U.S., appear to have lost a portion of that ability, according to a Stanford-led study. With climate change increasing droughts, the findings hold potential for developing […]
