Gap junction pathology in multiple sclerosis lesions and normal-appearing white matter.

Abstract Oligodendrocyte gap junctions (GJs) are vital for central nervous system myelination, but their involvement in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathology remains unknown. The aim of this study was to examine…

Disruption of oligodendrocyte gap junctions in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

Abstract Gap junctions (GJs) are vital for oligodendrocyte survival and myelination. In order to examine how different stages of inflammatory demyelination affect oligodendrocyte GJs, we studied the expression of oligodendrocytic…

A mathematical model of the unfolded protein stress response reveals the decision mechanism for recovery, adaptation and apoptosis.

Abstract The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a major signalling cascade acting in the quality control of protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The cascade is known to play…

The homeobox transcription factor cut coordinates patterning and growth during Drosophila airway remodeling.

Abstract A fundamental question in developmental biology is how tissue growth and patterning are coordinately regulated to generate complex organs with characteristic shapes and sizes. We showed that in the…

The complex history of the olive tree: from Late Quaternary diversification of Mediterranean lineages to primary domestication in the northern Levant.

Abstract The location and timing of domestication of the olive tree, a key crop in Early Mediterranean societies, remain hotly debated. Here, we unravel the history of wild olives (oleasters),…
