  The study presents important findings on inositol-requiring enzyme (IRE1α) inhibition on diet-induced obesity (overnutrition) and insulin resistance where IRE1α inhibition enhances thermogenesis and reduces the metabolically active and M1-like macrophages in adipose tissue. The evidence supporting the conclusions is convincing. The work will be of interest to cell biologists and biochemists working in metabolism, insulin resistance and inflammation with a broad eLife readership.

  This valuable manuscript by Jia et al. investigates the role of cartilage intermediate layer protein (CILP) and moderate exercise in maintaining hyaline cartilage integrity following anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLt) in rats. Solid data support the downregulation of CILP in human OA cartilage and its potential role in regulating Keap1/Nrf2 interaction and chondrocyte ferroptosis. However, the data supporting a role for CILP in exercise-mediated inhibition of hyaline cartilage fibrosis in early OA are incomplete.

  eLife Assessment

  This paper provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of how adenosine acts as a signal of nutrient insufficiency and extends this idea to suggest that adenosine is released by metabolically active cells in proportion to the activity of methylation events. Convincing data supports this idea. The authors use metabolic tracing approaches to identify the biochemical pathways that contribute to the regulation of adenosine levels and the S-adenosylmethionine cycle in Drosophila larval hemocytes in response to wasp egg infection.

  The authors demonstrate the valuable discovery that human CD29+/CD56+ myogenic progenitors can differentiate into tendon through the TGFβ pathway, addressing mouse and human interspecies differences in regard to the potential of muscle stem cells. The in vivo transplantation experiments provide convincing evidence for the conclusion, as human CD29+/CD56+ myogenic progenitors contribute to tendon regeneration, resulting in functional recovery in mouse model. The authors' approach can be used for the development of cell therapy for tendon-injured patients.
