Highlights

  • ITP signaling and homeostasis

    The ion transport peptide (ITP) signaling system relies on a guanylate cyclase receptor to maintain homeostasis in Drosophila.

    Research Article

  • Focus Issue: Trained Immunity

    The articles in this focus issue discuss progress towards a better understanding of memory in the innate immune system, and efforts to develop new vaccines and therapeutics based on “trained immunity”.

  • Phosphate buffering

    Lysosome-related vacuoles control the metabolism of inorganic polyphosphates to stabilize the concentration of phosphate in the cytosol.

    Research Article

  • How we understand each other

    eLife author Joe Barnby answers questions about a study that explored how humans navigate social interactions.

    Inside eLife

  • No change for astroctyes

    Genetically removing the RNA-binding protein PTBP1 from astrocytes does not convert them into neurons, contrary to previous claims.

    Reviewed Preprint Updated
We liked the idea of having an open 'conversation' with the reviewers during the process, and having the chance to polish the manuscript by following the editors and reviewers’ recommendations without the threat of rejection.
