About the Cover

February 1, 2015; 8 (2)

Cover image expansion

Cover: Presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2; orange) in the gut of Drosophila melanogaster following infection. Bandarra et al. identified a novel function of the mammalian hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) and the Drosophila homologue (Sima) in restraining the major inflammation-responsive transcription factor, nuclear factor κB (NF-κB). H2O2 levels were increased in sima loss-of-function transgenic flies following Serratia marcescens infection. HIF-1α was identified as an inhibitor of NF-κB activity, and could therefore be important in preventing excessive and harmful pro-inflammatory responses. See article by Bandarra et al. on page 169.

Editor’s Choice – Altered expression of the Cdk5 activator-like protein, Cdk5α, causes neurodegeneration, in part by accelerating the rate of aging

By developing a comprehensive and quantitative metric for physiological age of Drosophila, Edward Giniger and colleagues show that a neurodegeneration mutant produces its effects in part by accelerating the absolute rate of aging.


First Person interviews 

Have you seen our interviews with the early-career first authors of our papers? Recently, we caught up with first authors Sarah Foriel, Henna Myllymäki and Mirja Niskanen, Wenqing Zhou, Rifdat Aoidi and Amy Irving.


Review – Metastasis in context: modeling the tumor microenvironment with cancer-on-a-chip approaches

In a new Review article, Jaap M. J. den Toonder and colleagues evaluate the recent contributions of cancer-on-a-chip models to our understanding of the tumor microenvironment and its role in the onset of metastasis. The authors also provide an outlook for future applications of this emerging technology.
