   Microbes with higher metabolic independence are enriched in human gut microbiomes under stress

   Iva Veseli, Yiqun T Chen ... A Murat Eren

   Higher biosynthetic capacity of gut microbes in individuals diagnosed with noncommunicable diseases or taking antibiotics suggests that diversity loss and 'dysbiosis' result from microbiome restructuring in response to ecosystem disruption.
4. 1. Neuroscience

   Altered visual cortex excitatory/inhibitory ratio following transient congenital visual deprivation in humans

   Rashi Pant, Kabilan Pitchaimuthu ... Brigitte Röder

   Rare individuals treated for congenital cataracts demonstrated shifts in the visual cortex’s excitatory/inhibitory balance even decades post-surgery, reflected by alterations in the neurotransmitter concentration ratio and aperiodic electroencephalogram activity.
5. 1. Cell Biology

   Insufficiency of 40S ribosomal proteins, RPS26 and RPS25, negatively affects biosynthesis of polyglycine-containing proteins in fragile-X associated conditions

   Katarzyna Tutak, Izabela Broniarek ... Krzysztof Sobczak

   Identification of ribosomal proteins RPS26 and RPS25, along with chaperone TSR2, as new important modifiers in the noncanonical translation process linked to fragile X premutation disorders.
