The highly conserved c-Jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK) signalling pathway has many
functions, regulating a diversity of processes: from cell movement during embryogenesis to …

The spatio-temporal regulation of gene expression determines the fate and function of
various cells and tissues and, as a consequence, the correct development and functioning of …

Autophagy is important for cellular homeostasis and to prevent the abnormal accumulation
of proteins. While many proteins that comprise the canonical autophagy pathway have been …

The Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway is an evolutionary conserved kinase cascade best
known for its roles during stress-induced apoptosis and tumor progression. Recent findings …

Skeletal muscles are composed of gigantic cells called muscle fibers, packed with force-
producing myofibrils. During development, the size of individual muscle fibers must …

Spermatogenesis is a critical part of reproduction in insects; however, its molecular
mechanism is still largely unknown. In this study, we identified a testis‐specific gene …

Simple Summary The STRIPAK (striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase) complex and
its central components, striatins (STRNs), have attracted significant interest with regard to …

In the vertebrate retina, an interplay between retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), amacrine (AC),
and bipolar (BP) cells establishes a synaptic layer called the inner plexiform layer (IPL). This …

Gamete formation is essential for sexual reproduction in metazoans. Meiosis in males gives
rise to spermatids that must differentiate and individualize into mature sperm. In Drosophila …

Tissue homeostasis via the elimination of aberrant cells is fundamental for organism
survival. Cell competition is a key homeostatic mechanism, contributing to the recognition …
