    Small deviations in kinematics and body form dictate muscle performances in the finely tuned avian downstroke

    Marc E Deetjen, Diana D Chin ... David Lentink
    Doves improve their wingbeat efficacy without elevating maximum pectoralis power by angling their wings mid-downstroke to efficiently generate aerodynamic force while simultaneously tensioning the supracoracoideus tendon to assist the upstroke.

    DNA methylation-environment interactions in the human genome

    Rachel A Johnston, Katherine A Aracena ... Jenny Tung
    A massively parallel reporter assay, mSTARR-seq, reveals widespread DNA methylation-environment interactions across the genome, prioritizing CpG sites identified in epigenome-wide association studies that may be most relevant to biological embedding.

    What fraction of cellular DNA turnover becomes cfDNA?

    Ron Sender, Elad Noor ... Yuval Dor
    Comparing tissue-specific plasma cfDNA concentration with cellular turnover rates reveals that less than 10% of dying cells' DNA reaches plasma, highlighting significant local clearance mechanisms and suggesitng approaches to enhance liquid biopsy sensitivity.

    Causal role of the angular gyrus in insight-driven memory reconfiguration

    Anna-Maria Grob, Hendrik Heinbockel ... Lars Schwabe
    Behavioral and neural analyses unravel the angular gyrus’ key role in the prioritization of integrated narratives in memory and the orchestration of theta-frequency reconfigurations underpinning the process of memory integration.

    RNA fusion in human retinal development

    Wen Wang, Xiao Zhang ... Zi-Bing Jin
    Chimeric RNAs are widely distributed spatiotemporally during human retinal development and have important regulatory functions, such as silencing of CTNNBIP1-CLSTN1 biasing the progenitor cells toward the RPE cell fate at the expense of neural retinal cell fates.

    Piezo1 mechanosensing regulates integrin-dependent chemotactic migration in human T cells

    Chinky Shiu Chen Liu, Tithi Mandal ... Dipyaman Ganguly
    A hitherto unknown role of Piezo1 mechanosensors in chemotactic migration of human T cells is identified, linking focal adhesion formation to integrin recruitment.
