    Brain areas for reversible symbolic reference, a potential singularity of the human brain

    Timo van Kerkoerle, Louise Pape ... Ghislaine Dehaene-Lambertz
    Humans spontaneously reverse learned associations while macaque monkeys do not, providing a minimal test of a distinctive human capacity for symbolic representations.

    Interleukin-1 prevents SARS-CoV-2-induced membrane fusion to restrict viral transmission via induction of actin bundles

    Xu Zheng, Shi Yu ... Guangxun Meng
    Interleukin-1 activates RhoA/ROCK signaling, which drives the enrichment of actin bundles at the cell-cell junctions, preventing SARS-CoV-2 spreading via syncytia formation.

    Glucokinase activity controls peripherally located subpopulations of β-cells that lead islet Ca2+ oscillations

    Erli Jin, Jennifer K Briggs ... Matthew J Merrins
    3D light-sheet imaging identifies the location and metabolic sensitivity of β-cell subpopulations that lead and coordinate islet Ca2+ oscillations.

    Decoding phase separation of prion-like domains through data-driven scaling laws

    M Julia Maristany, Anne Aguirre Gonzalez ... Jerelle A Joseph
    Phase diagrams for 140 variants of prion-like low-complexity domains are computed to establish scaling laws that quantify the impact of amino acid mutations on the thermodynamic stability of condensates.

    Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) activity is modulated by light and gates rapid phase shifts of the circadian clock

    Andrea Brenna, Micaela Borsa ... Urs Albrecht
    The light-modulated protein kinase CDK5 is important for phase shifts of the circadian clock, impacting phase delays through calcium influx and signaling pathways, crucial for adapting to jet lag.

    NPRL2 gene therapy induces effective antitumor immunity in KRAS/STK11 mutant anti-PD1 resistant metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a humanized mouse model

    Ismail M Meraz, Mourad Majidi ... Jack A Roth
    NPRL2 gene therapy induces robust antitumor immunity and overcome anti-PD1 resistance through augmenting antigen-presentation and cytotoxic T cells activation in KRAS/STK11 mutant NSCLC in humanized mouse model.

    Immunogenicity and safety of a live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate based on multiple attenuation mechanisms

    Mie Suzuki Okutani, Shinya Okamura ... Hirotaka Ebina
    The novel live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 nasal vaccine candidate is highly safe, induces robust cellular and mucosal immunity, and generates long-lasting neutralizing antibody titers.

    Alzheimer-mutant γ-secretase complexes stall amyloid β-peptide production

    Parnian Arafi, Sujan Devkota ... Michael S Wolfe
    Further evidence in support of a new amyloid-independent hypothesis for the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease is provided, with an expanded set of Alzheimer-causing mutations in the protease that produces amyloid.
