Discover what's new and interesting in mechanisms of disease, development, infection and immunity


In this review, Madhuri Bhuvanagiri, Andreas Kulozik and colleagues discuss diverse aspects of NMD, the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway: a crucial RNA quality control process which holds exciting promise in explaining the phenotypic variability of many genetic diseases and offering perspectives for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

In this paper, Muria Barbarroja and colleagues have explored whether differences in inflammatory and insulin signalling pathways in visceral adipose tissue might account for the metabolic differences exhibited by morbidly obese individuals who are either insulin-resistant or, paradoxically, insulin-sensitive. Read the Commentary on this paper by Marie-Soleil Gauthier and Neil B. Ruderman.

Terri Attwood and her colleagues in Manchester survey some of the recent projects that have sought to transform scholarly publishing paradigms, culminating in the Semantic Biochemical Journal. Download the software and see how papers are richer and the data more accessible than before. The Semantic Biochemical Journal marks the beginning of a publishing revolution, changing the way we interact with, and review, the scholarly scientific journal forever. Join us as pioneers of the Living Journal.
