Intrinsic dysfunction in muscle stem cells lacking dystrophin begins during secondary myogenesis - Nature Communications
In mdx mouse fetuses, the lack of dystrophin markedly impairs secondary myogenesis due to reduced muscle stem cell polarity. AAK1 deletion restores polarity and rescues secondary myogenesis, revealing...

Skeletal muscle-derived IL-33 mediates muscle-to-bone crosstalk and regulates bone metabolism via CD8+ T cell-secreted CCL5
Our research has uncovered a muscle-bone communication mechanism primarily mediated
by IL-33, linking muscle dysfunction to bone loss. This interaction could be a promising
therapeutic target for musc...

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

Teaching is one of those jobs where doing it doesn't make it done.
My husband can't rest until all the tasks are complete.
If I, a teacher, felt that way, I would be in intensive care.

My 2nd year PhD and I worked on an NSF GFRP this year. 🥺🤯🤬
Continuing efforts to hurt the research pipeline, the very late NSF GFRP solicitation no longer allows 2nd year PhD students to apply. Lots of these students chose not to apply last year because they were told they would have a better change once in their thesis lab www.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...
