Arends, Bennett, & Tapscott @fredhutch.org show that DUX4-induction of stable intranuclear RNA, including pericentromeric HSATII repeat RNA, leads to nuclear protein aggregation. HSATII RNP complexes impact RNA processing downstream of DUX4 expression rupress.org/jcb/article/...

Depending on our marker we will generalize even more, using "peripheral" or "sensory". This one was p2rx3a iirc

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! This is a maximum intensity projection of depth shaded actin (🌈) in a section from an E9.5 🐭 neural tube (NT). 🔬 by postdoc @christinaadaly.bsky.social 👩‍🔬 🧪 Image shows the floor plate and lumen of the developing NT.

Rainbow shading of a confocal micrograph of a developing mouse neural tube. The protein actin is stained and colored in rainbow to indicate depth in the section.

cover image yeeeeeeeeehawwwww #flourescentfriday
check out our work in the most recent issue of @jcellsci.bsky.social !
Cover: Skin-resident macrophages (white) migrate towards a scratch wound (centre) in a zebrafish skin explant. To reach the wound margin, migrating macrophages must navigate through a dense network of epithelial cells, which are visualised using a reporter for epithelial junctions (α-catenin-Citrine, magenta). Live-cell imaging and chemical perturbations demonstrate that skin macrophages require microtubules to efficiently respond to tissue damage and navigate epithelial obstacles. See article by E. Peterman et al. (jcs264101).
