Mitochondria directly interact with the nuclear pore complex
Abstract Mitochondria regulate cellular processes through direct and indirect interactions with other organelles. A well-studied example has been contact with the endoplasmic reticulum at mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes1, which control pathways including redox and calcium homeostasis2,3. Recent studies have also reported direct mitochondria–nuclear membrane contacts in cancer cells and yeast that promote pro-survival signalling4,5.
Molecular glue degraders of HuR suppress BRAF-mutant colorectal cancer
Abstract BRAF gain-of-function mutations, particularly BRAF(V600E), affect roughly 10% of all patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), and portend poor prognosis with limited therapeutic interventions. BRAF inhibitors such as encorafenib are ineffective due to MAPK pathway reactivation driven by BRAF dimerization. Combined inhibition of BRAF and EGFR, although approved therapies, results in short survival benefits and frequent treatment resistance and relapse1,2,3.
Compositional and interpretable representation of histology using AI foundation models and sparse autoencoders
Light microscopy of tissue sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) has been the foundation of histopathology for over 150 years and remains essential for diagnosis and research. The development of high-plex spatial profiling approaches able to measure protein and RNA expression at single-cell resolution augments but does not replace H&E imaging, even in research. Computational pathology (CPath) models based on deep learning promise to further increase the value of H&E...
A prognostic human brain network for diffuse midline glioma
Abstract Diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) are near-universally lethal tumours of the childhood central nervous system1,2. In animal models, DMGs form brain-wide integrated networks through neuron-to-glioma synapses3,4,5,6 and glioma-to-glioma gap junctional coupling3. This extensive connectivity robustly promotes the growth and invasion of DMG3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and other glial malignancies10,11,12 through paracrine mechanisms and direct neuron-to-glioma synapses.
Mutation-dependent responses to sleep and exercise in clonal haematopoiesis
Abstract Clonal haematopoiesis (CH) activates inflammation and increases the risk of atherosclerosis1,2. Whether lifestyle alters CH clone expansion or the phenotypic programming of CH mutant cells, thereby affecting atherosclerosis, is unknown. Here, in humans and mice and across mutations in Jak2, Tet2, Trp53 and Dnmt3a, we demonstrate mutation-dependent responses to sleep and exercise in CH and show that mutant cells are uniquely sensitive to lifestyle.
Structural basis for chaperone-guided assembly of RNA-induced silencing complex
Abstract The RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), comprising an Argonaute (AGO) protein and a small RNA, is the central effector in RNA silencing. Small RNAs are loaded onto AGO as bulky duplexes in an HSP70- and HSP90-dependent process1,2,3, but the molecular mechanism remains poorly understood. Here we identify the human AGO–HSP90–p23 complex, which captures AGO in an RNA-free state, termed the AGO maturation complex (AMC).
Bacteria can learn and form memories without a brain
Bacteria can learn and form memories without a brain Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have shown that bacteria can learn from past experiences, store memories across generations and adapt their behavior to changing environments, all without a brain or nervous system. The research could shape how scientists think about bacterial infections and antibiotic treatment. In a study published in PRX Life, researchers from Carnegie...

Why are cells small?
Two physical constraints — surface area and diffusion — explain why cells are so small. A human body is built from 30 trillion cells — excluding microbes — that each arise from a lone, fertilized egg. These cells come in a multiplicity of shapes and sizes, with internal volumes spanning five orders of magnitude.
Efficient and accurate neural-field reconstruction using resistive memory
Abstract Applications such as medical imaging, augmented and virtual reality, and embodied artificial intelligence (AI) depend on the ability to reconstruct complex signals from sparse observations. These applications are characterized by incomplete measurements and limited computational resources. Traditional approaches to digital hardware face the following challenges: explicit signal representations require heavy sampling and storage, data movement across the von Neumann bottleneck...
