Evolutionary transcriptomics implicates HAND2 in the origins of implantation and regulation of gestation length

Mirna Marinic et al.

Summary: The evolutionary genes evolved at the maternal-fetal interface in Eutherian mammals play essential roles in the evolution of pregnancy and are associated with immunological disorders and preterm birth. Among these genes, HAND2 regulates a distinct set of genes in endometrial stromal fibroblasts, promoting migration of natural killer cells and extravillous cytotrophoblasts. These findings connect HAND2 expression at the maternal-fetal interface with evolution of implantation and gestational regulation, and preterm birth.

Single cell regulatory landscape of the mouse kidney highlights cellular differentiation programs and disease targets

Zhen Miao et al.

Summary: The study on the epigenetic program in different cell types of the kidney is crucial for understanding cell-type heterogeneity during tissue homeostasis and injury response. By analyzing open chromatin and gene expression in mouse kidneys, key cell type-specific transcription factors and major gene-regulatory circuits for kidney cells are revealed. Additionally, single nucleotide variants associated with human kidney disease implicate specific cell types, developmental stages, genes, and regulatory mechanisms.

Sugar or Fat? Renal Tubular Metabolism Reviewed in Health and Disease

Leslie S. Gewin

Summary: The kidney relies on specialized epithelial cells in the renal tubules for reabsorption, with the proximal tubules using fatty acid oxidation as the preferred metabolic pathway. After kidney injury, there are alterations in metabolism leading to decreased fatty acid oxidation and increased lactic acid generation.

Global proteomic analyses of human cytotrophoblast differentiation/invasion

Hao Chen et al.

Summary: During pregnancy, cytotrophoblasts from the placenta differentiate into specialized subpopulations, with some following an invasive pathway crucial for proper fetal development. The ability of these cells to migrate, invade and remodel arteries is essential for ensuring adequate blood flow to nourish the fetus. Advances in understanding the molecular features regulating the differentiation of these cells are ongoing, with a mass spectrometry-based approach providing new insights into their differentiation dynamics.

On the Need to Tell Apart Fraternal Twins eEF1A1 and eEF1A2, and Their Respective Outfits

Alberto Mills et al.

Summary: eEF1A1 and eEF1A2 are paralogous proteins with multitasking abilities, whose presence in normal eukaryotic cells is mutually exclusive and regulated. The high sequence identity and post-translational modifications of these proteins pose challenges in discerning their specific proteoforms responsible for cellular effects. Their involvement in fundamental cellular processes beyond translation elongation is crucial, especially in the context of genetic mutations linked to neurological syndromes and cardiomyopathies.
