No RBJC on March 22

Alas, we will be canceling the previously scheduled March 22 RBJC meeting.
But chin up! Do your own personal journal club!
There are a number of cool papers out there ... perhaps some inspiration for a paper pick for a future RBJC lies in this list of a few things that have been on my reading list:

Endocrine regulation of male fertility by the skeleton
Cell 144:796-809
Commentary

Insulin/FOXO signaling regulates ovarian prostaglandins critical for reproduction

Dev Cell 19:858

Most mouse spermatozoa begin their acrosome reaction before contact with the zona pellucida during in vitro fertilization
PNAS in press
Commentary 1
Commentary 2 [requires JHED sign-in]

MITOPLD is a mitochondrial protein essential for nuage formation and piRNA biogenesis in the mouse germline
Dev Cell 20:364-375
piRNA-associated germline nuage formation and spermatogenesis require MitoPLD profusogenic mitochondrial-surface lipid signaling
Dev Cell 20:376-387
Commentary

See you for our next meeting, April 12!
(We are skipping a week because a bunch of us will be away for the North American Testis Workshop and/or American Society of Andrology meeting)
