In hyperglycaemic states, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) downregulate the highly selective magnesium transporter expression of NIPA2 in osteoblasts. This results in ma...

Cell Metab 2021;33(2): 270–282.e8. doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cmet.2020.11.008Brestoff et al. show, for the first time, that mitochondria are transferred from adipocytes to macrophages and that this event has an impact on systemic metabolic homeostasis.Within the last years, it has been demonstrated that cells are able to communicate with each other by the exchange of organell...

To read the full abstract: Nature 2017;548:413-419Over recent years, the Yearbook has followed the rapid advances in CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, initially as a widely adopted research tool, but also as an emerging form of gene therapy. Here, Ma et al. report the first use of CRISPR–Cas9 to efficiently and safely correct a pathogenic heterozygous mutation in human embryos. The...
