Soma-to-germline miRNA inheritance through yolk promotes stress resilience in progeny

In this study, the authors use the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to show that maternal microRNAs are delivered from the intestine to embryos by the yolk, where they regulate gene expression and promote stress resilience in offspring.

Tumor irradiation promotes antigen dressing of dendritic cells to enhance CAR T cell persistence and efficacy in lung metastases

Ahmed and colleagues show that, by promoting ‘dressing’ of intact tumor target antigens onto dendritic cells, tumor irradiation enhances chimeric antigen receptor T cell persistence and efficacy in lung metastasis models.

Coupling dead cell recognition to Fcγ receptors augments anticancer immunity

Castro-Dopico et al. report the design of reagents to bridge F-actin and Fcγ receptors, endowing a range of antigen-presenting cells with the ability to cross-present antigens from dead tumor cells and boosting antitumor immunity in preclinical models.

Membrane insertion of mitochondrial-encoded proteins regulates ribosome decoding speed

Schöndorf and Petrychenko et al. show that mitochondrial translation speed is coupled to OXA1L-mediated inner membrane insertion, with cotranslational nascent chain folding and insertion driving structural changes and translational pausing.
