Die Weihnachtsansprache von #HHU-Rektorin Prof. Dr. Anja Steinbeck: youtu.be/5YaXSvsu8uA

Our work reveals that in zebrafish embryos, Wnt5b and Ror2 are transported via cytonemes to initiate Wnt-PCP signaling, challenging traditional views on cellular responsiveness based solely on receptor expression nature.com/articles/s4158… Wnt UK LSI Exeter

LZTR1 germline variants predispose to Hyperdiploid ALL - remarkable functional validation from @Borkhardt_Lab using a Drosophila model!

🦟 NEW PAPER ALERT! In our most recent work rdcu.be/dxdKZ, we zoomed in on the mosquito midgut epithelium, and found a hub of activity in cellular dynamics! 🔄Here are some of our insights:

New mosquito paper from the lab, great work of Mabel Taracena-Agarwal and Bretta Hixson demonstrating how infection and blood feeding modulate stem cell mediated epithelial turnover and endocycling in the #midgut of different #mosquitos .

In this single-center study germline WES data from 353 ped pts showed a significant assoc btw LZTR1 germline variants & development of classical hyperdiploid BCP-ALL. Functional assays using a Drosophila model demonstrated impact on RAS pathway activity👉 bit.ly/3UilkUn
