Fields et al. demonstrate the viability of targeting a shared cytokine receptor for comprehensive signaling blockade of all associated cytokines. CAN10 and 3G5, two anti-IL-1RAcP antibodies, target distinct epitopes on this shared receptor and potently block IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-33, IL-36α, IL-36β, and IL-36γ signaling.

The nociceptive activity of peripheral sensory neurons is modulated by the neuronal membrane proteasome
Proteasomes are critical for sensory neuron function. Villalón Landeros et al. uncover a specialized proteasome in somatosensory neurons called the neuronal membrane proteasome (NMP). The NMP mediates crosstalk between somatosensory neurons to modulate sensitivity to stimulation. Inhibition of the NMP reduces […]
A fitness landscape instability governs the morphological diversity of tip-growing cells
Ohairwe et al. demonstrate that an intrinsic mechanical instability in the convergent mechanism of “inflationary” cell growth shared by diverse tip-growing cells leads to a bifurcation (branching) of their fitness landscape. This bifurcation strictly constrains natural tip-growing cell shapes.
Neospora caninum, a Protozoan Killing Dogs, “Might Be Key” to “Total Regression of Tumors”
Neosporosis, caused by the intracellular parasite Neospora caninum, presents a significant challenge in veterinary medicine, leading to serious and life-threatening neurological issues in dogs, and costing the industrial cattle industry billions each year. N. caninum does not infect humans, making […]
