    miR-252 targeting temperature receptor CcTRPM to mediate the transition from summer-form to winter-form of Cacopsylla chinensis

    Songdou Zhang, Jianying Li ... Xiaoxia Liu
    The first comprehensive study on the regulation mechanism of miR-252 and temperature receptor CcTRPM on insect seasonal polyphenism will also conducive to designing a new method for pest control.

    Astrocyte and L-lactate in the anterior cingulate cortex modulate schema memory and neuronal mitochondrial biogenesis

    Mastura Akter, Mahadi Hasan ... Ying Li
    Astrocytic Gi pathway activation in the anterior cingulate cortex impairs schema memory and neuronal mitochondrial biogenesis, which can be rescued by exogenous L-lactate administration directly into the area.

    Human skeletal muscle organoids model fetal myogenesis and sustain uncommitted PAX7 myogenic progenitors

    Lampros Mavrommatis, Hyun-Woo Jeong ... Holm Zaehres
    Skeletal muscle organoids differentiated from human pluripotent stem cells offer a system for investigating myogenesis and satellite cell development with translational potential for muscular dystrophy modeling and therapy development.

    Missense mutations in CRX homeodomain cause dominant retinopathies through two distinct mechanisms

    Yiqiao Zheng, Chi Sun ... Shiming Chen
    The integrated analysis of multi-omics and functional evidence both in vitro and in knock-in mouse models reveal novel gain-of-function pathogenic mechanisms of dominant CRX HD missense mutations.

    Cue- versus reward-encoding basolateral amygdala projections to nucleus accumbens

    Yi He, Yanhua H Huang ... Yan Dong
    Two distinct projections from the basolateral amygdala to nucleus accumbens differentially contribute to cue- versus reward-mediated behavioral reinforcement.

    Mesotrode allows chronic simultaneous mesoscale cortical imaging and subcortical or peripheral nerve spiking activity recording in mice

    Dongsheng Xiao, Yuhao Yan, Timothy H Murphy
    Low-profile tetrodes that are compatible with wide-field imaging provide the opportunity to evaluate the relationship between spiking neurons and broad networks.

    Approach-avoidance reinforcement learning as a translational and computational model of anxiety-related avoidance

    Yumeya Yamamori, Oliver J Robinson, Jonathan P Roiser
    A computational and translational approach to measuring anxiety-related behaviour was validated in two large independent samples, presenting opportunities for cross-species anxiety research and potential implications for anxiolytic drug development.

    Mechanism of substrate binding and transport in BASS transporters

    Patrick Becker, Fiona Naughton ... Alexander D Cameron
    The putative substrate pantoate binds to a sodium-coupled secondary transporter of the bile acid sodium symporter family, with sodium-dependent binding and conformational changes consistent with an elevator mechanism of transport.
