DOI: 10.1126/science.357.6349.366-r
Abstract: Metabolism Natriuretic peptides alter metabolism in combination with blood pressure effects. Wu et al. found that mice with enhanced natriuretic peptide signaling in muscle gained weight and became insulin-resistant on a high-fat diet. In contrast,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1007997
Abstract: The homeostasis of meristems in flowering plants is maintained by cell-to-cell communication via CLE (CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-related) peptide hormones. In contrast, cell signals that regulate meristem activity remains elusive in bryophytes that maintain apical meristems… read more here.
