CLEC4E as a key driver of damaging inflammation in influenza. Did you see the latest post of Charis Qi highlighting work of Christian V. Forst & team @IcahnMountSinai? #preLight #SystemsBiology ⬇️👀 https://t.co/zW3vFo9LrY

Extracting the central dogma from a single cancer biopsy.🧬 @labs_mann show that clinically meaningful, high-quality data can be obtained from archived protein-rich flowthrough that is usually discarded. #preLight from Erik @KirstyMFerguson @Lange_Lab ⬇️ https://t.co/n7HlSi7XVd

Thanks to Dr. Vibha for the update! One thing I’d add is that the reviewers’ push to validate our computational model led to a new main figure demonstrating we can predict changes in motility, which I’m particularly happy with!

Insightful #postLight just uploaded by @SVibha1 👀 She revisits work from @JonathanAKuhn and team, originally posted as a preprint and now published in @NatureCommunications postLight:

Hsp70 phosphorylation stalls cell cycle, buying time for DNA repair. 🧬 Ana Sanchez-Molina: “This #preprint provides detailed mechanistic, biochemical, and genetic evidence of a conserved mechanism of cell cycle regulation in response to DNA damage.” 👀⬇️ https://t.co/7qYkhIiVR0

Being active when everyone else is asleep 💤 @wirthstef highlights work from Jona Lopez Pedersen & team (Toxopeus Lab @stfxuniversity) exploring why & how the stonefly Allocapnia pygmaea survives subzero temperatures. #preprint #preLight #Ecology ⬇️👀 https://t.co/Evyekwa9cA

Lot of new preLights this week 🙌 @LiRuoheng36210 discusses a study from the Extavour Lab @redmakeda studying an extraordinary case of epithelial morphogenesis. How shrimp embryos set up an epithelial checkerboard: down and across. #preLight #DevBio ⬇️👀 https://t.co/FCtxUfaFSA

Excellent #postLight uploaded by @coffee_lipe! He revisits work from Werner van der Meer & colleagues (@NoursharghLab @joachimgoedhart @VanBuul_lab) originally posted as a preprint and now published in @CellReports postLight:

Stopping norovirus at the gate. 🚧 In her first preLight, Leonie Brüne explores work from Maryna Chaika & team (@stefantaube) highlighting polyamines as a possible new lead for therapeutics against norovirus. #preprint #preLight #Immunology ⬇️👀 https://t.co/dBayrwc2wM

How do cells sense & respond to lipid imbalances? What happens when a disease-relevant enzyme is blocked? Shiying Huang investigates phosphoinositides with the Balla lab & discovers an integrated cellular response boosting synthesis of alternate lipids! https://t.co/ZhJsQysyhu

Crypto’s new wave is coming from it’s from infrastructure with personality. Projects like idOS @idOS_network and HeyElsa @HeyElsaAI, both under the Wallchain umbrella, aren’t chasing hype; they’re rebuilding the foundation of how people and systems connect on-chain.

CAR T therapy has seen great effectiveness in liquid tumors, but little in solid tumors (e.g. ovarian cancer). Here we developed hyper-migratory CAR TV cells to infiltrate en masse ovarian tumors. (green = CAR TV cells) Read it here: https://t.co/RR9brDqafP

Our next #DevPres webinar focusses on development across scales with talks from Osvaldo Contreras @osvaldoics & Yinan Wan @yinan_wan, chaired by our Executive Editor Alex Eve. 📅15 October, 09:00 BST (UTC+1) Register here: https://t.co/nHbF9ngqdE

We have developed a new workflow to map in 3D at single-cell resolution whole human organs. Prof. Rong Fan (Yale) mapped out immune cell populations in the vicinity of ovarian precancerous lesions in healthy women and found no enrichment. More here: https://t.co/UoTgbRKGT0

Happy October 1st! A good time to share another #CellBio preprint reading list put together by a team of preLighters: @NathSristilekha, Matthew Davies, @SVibha1, @coffee_lipe & Barbora Knotkova. Check out their picks ⬇️👀 https://t.co/2mmJxlDxQr

Our latest ‘call for preLighters’ closes tonight! Interested, but didn’t find the time to write an application? Expressions of interest are also welcome – just email us at prelights@biologists.com Why join? See what other preLighters have to say…⬇️👀

Turning back the clock on stem cells. 🕒 Did you see the preLight @SVibha1 posted last week highlighting the #preprint of Eva Mejía-Ramírez & team? #preLight: https://t.co/SAtDoMa08S This work was also discussed in a recent webinar ⬇️👀

ICYMI – the recording from FocalPlane features… @preLights LIVE is up! preLighters @coffee_lipe & @SVibha1 present their live preLights & share research talks from Carmen Rodilla-Ramírez and Eva Mejía-Ramírez. #preprints #cellbio #microscopy https://t.co/xOfzIEmcQc

Shape-shifting RNAs 🪄 Structural cues drive partitioning and active remodelling in stress granules for rapid cellular recovery - #preprint from the lab of @ywan_wan, highlighted by @moh_jalloh10 #preLight ⬇️👀 https://t.co/4PRWHzqtDg

/n Excited to share my first PhD paper, published in Development🥳 What if fish gills —often overlook —hold secrets about development, patterning, and function? We uncovered how early patterning shapes adult gill architecture. https://t.co/3L2RN1YB6Q #Zebrafish #devbio #science

A new preprint from the lab. I won't do a tweetorial until this is peer reviewed, but I think it's a banger, led by @JedNzy. It's about Rubisco and what chaperones are really for. He's on the market, get him while you can. https://t.co/1nnCjqfce1
