They cause prolonged pain and disability. Work is under way to improve the success rate of surgical repair and to accelerate the bone-healing process.  Access the Outline >>  Produced with support from:  Translational Research Informatics Center (TRI)   Kobe University Orthopaedic Surgery    Editorial Top Thinking big in mental health   p1 doi:10.1038/nm.4471 Mental illnesses impose a grave disease burden worldwide, yet progress in managing and treating them has largely stalled. Harnessing the power of big data may break the current impasse and open new avenues for better diagnosis, treatment and prevention of these devastating illnesses. News Top Puzzling over privilege: How the immune system protects[mdash]and fails[mdash]the testes   pp2 - 5 Shraddha Chakradhar doi:10.1038/nm0118-2 Correction Top Correction   p5 doi:10.1038/nm0118-5 News and Views Top Lipid metabolic reprogramming in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury   pp6 - 7 Satdarshan P Monga doi:10.1038/nm.4468 In a recent study of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), Zhang et al. use tandem 'omics' approaches in mice, pigs, and nonhuman primates to identify lipid metabolic reprogramming as a key determinant of IRI, thus providing novel mechanistic and therapeutic insights.

Genomics in childhood acute myeloid leukemia comes of age   pp7 - 9 Andrew M Brunner and Timothy A Graubert doi:10.1038/nm.4469 A Children's Oncology Group study of nearly 1,000 pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases reveals marked differences between the genomic landscapes of pediatric and adult AML and offers directions for future work.

Amyloid-[beta] plaques enhance Alzheimer's brain tau-seeded pathologies by facilitating neuritic plaque tau aggregation   pp29 - 38 Zhuohao He, Jing L Guo, Jennifer D McBride, Sneha Narasimhan, Hyesung Kim et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4443 Through injection of human Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain extracts containing pathological tau protein into transgenic mouse lines harboring different levels of amyloid plaque burden, the authors find that the presence of amyloid plaques modifies endogenous pools of tau protein, creating a unique environment required for the seeding and spreading of distinct tau pathologies. Thyroid hormone inhibits lung fibrosis in mice by improving epithelial mitochondrial function   pp39 - 49 Guoying Yu, Argyris Tzouvelekis, Rong Wang, Jose D Herazo-Maya, Gabriel H Ibarra et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4447 Thyroid hormone improves mitochondrial function and dynamics in lung epithelium to reduce pulmonary fibrosis in mice. cGAS drives noncanonical-inflammasome activation in age-related macular degeneration   pp50 - 61 Nagaraj Kerur, Shinichi Fukuda, Daipayan Banerjee, Younghee Kim, Dongxu Fu et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4450 Degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium is a hallmark of geographic atrophy, a type of age-related macular degeneration. Kerur et al. show that this degeneration results from a multistep pathway in which mitochondrial dysfunction in RPE cells, triggered by accumulation of Alu RNA, leads to activation of the noncanonical inflammasome via a cGAS-STING-IRF3 signaling axis. A proteolytic fragment of histone deacetylase 4 protects the heart from failure by regulating the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway   pp62 - 72 Lorenz H Lehmann, Zegeye H Jebessa, Michael M Kreusser, Axel Horsch, Tao He et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4452 A proteolytically derived fragment of the epigenetic regulator HDAC4 protects the heart through transcriptional repression of the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway, thereby inhibiting protein O-GlcNAcylation and maintaining normal calcium handling and contractility of cardiomyocytes. An ALOX12-12-HETE-GPR31 signaling axis is a key mediator of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury   pp73 - 83 Xiao-Jing Zhang, Xu Cheng, Zhen-Zhen Yan, Jing Fang, Xiaozhan Wang et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4451 ALOX12-mediated generation of 12-HETE leads to GPR31 activation and liver injury in ischemia-reperfusion, which can be targeted in a nonhuman primate model to improve outcome. The deubiquitinating enzyme TNFAIP3 mediates inactivation of hepatic ASK1 and ameliorates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis   pp84 - 94 Peng Zhang, Pi-Xiao Wang, Ling-Ping Zhao, Xin Zhang, Yan-Xiao Ji et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4453 The deubiquitinase TNFAIP3 suppresses the kinase ASK1 to ameliorate nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Resource Top The molecular landscape of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia reveals recurrent structural alterations and age-specific mutational interactions   pp103 - 112 Hamid Bolouri, Jason E Farrar, Timothy Triche Jr, Rhonda E Ries, Emilia L Lim et al. doi:10.1038/nm.4439 A comprehensive molecular analysis of almost 1,000 pediatric subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) uncovers widespread differences in pediatric AML as compared to adult AML, including a higher frequency of structural variants and different mutational patterns and epigenetic signatures. Future studies are needed to characterize the functional relevance of these alterations and to explore age-tailored therapies to improve disease control in younger patients.
