Analyses of discovered cancer-driving nucleotides (CDNs) reveal their evolutionary, biochemical, and therapeutic characteristics that are often shared among multiple cancer types.
A mathematical model shows that mutations that recur even modestly among cancer patients are cancer driving nucleotides that can be exhaustively identified to serve as targets of cancer therapy.
The conformation of an isoleucine gate located along the TM6 segment on the intracellular side below the selectivity filter is a critical component leading to a non-conductive state in the C-type inactivation process of K+ channels.
In astrocytes, there exists an intrinsic spatial threshold of subcellular calcium levels that triggers an astrocyte calcium surge throughout the cell, demonstrating cellular astrocyte calcium integration of time and space.

A distinct subset of cerebellar nuclei neurons originates from a previously unrecognized germinal zone within the cerebellar primordium, independent of Atoh1 influence, highlighting new cellular origins in cerebellar development.
The important role of structural asymmetry in the functional lateralization of the same brain area provides a crucial insight into the neurobiological fundament for human brain's functional lateralization.
