   Enteropathogen antibody dynamics and force of infection among children in low-resource settings

   Benjamin F Arnold et al.

   Among children in low-resource settings, diverse enteropathogens share common, population-level antibody dynamics, which creates a new opportunity to estimate transmission through serologic surveillance.

   TMEM16B regulates anxiety-related behavior and GABAergic neuronal signaling in the central lateral amygdala

   Ke-Xin Li et al.

   SOM⁺ GABAergic neuronal signaling and inhibitory transmission in the central lateral amygdala is regulated by TMEM16B, which is also involved in fear and anxiety-like behaviors.

   Human motor fatigability as evoked by repetitive movements results from a gradual breakdown of surround inhibition

   Marc Bächinger et al.

   Motor fatigability is associated with a decrease in inhibition throughout the motor network, suggesting that selective inhibitory control is a key mechanism to maintain motor efficiency during repetitive movements.

    Natural selection and repeated patterns of molecular evolution following allopatric divergence

    Yibo Dong et al.

    The genomic architecture of allopatric species is a mosaic of many conserved genes and a few adaptive ones, reflecting balance between conservation of ancestral functions and evolution of new features.
