    Adaptations in wing morphology rather than wingbeat kinematics enable flight in small hoverfly species

    Camille Le Roy, Nina Tervelde ... Florian T Muijres
    Small hoverflies compensate for size-related flight challenges through evolutionary changes in wing shape rather than altered wingbeat kinematics.

    Non-cognate immunity proteins provide broader defenses against interbacterial effectors in microbial communities

    Abigail Knecht, Denise Sirias ... Karine A Gibbs
    A biochemical and bioinformatics approach shows how T6SS immunity proteins bind to and neutralize a range of non-cognate effectors, which is critical for promoting bacterial fitness in mixed-strain environments.

    Astrocytic modulation of population encoding in mouse visual cortex via GABA transporter 3 revealed by multiplexed CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing

    Jiho Park, Grayson O Sipe ... Mriganka Sur
    Astrocytic GABA transporter 3 is essential for preserving the integrity of neuronal population dynamics in accurately encoding and representing sensory information.

    Pesticide-induced resurgence in brown planthoppers is mediated by action on a suite of genes that promote juvenile hormone biosynthesis and female fecundity

    Yang Gao, Shao-Cong Su ... Shun-Fan Wu
    Sublethal emamectin benzoate alters juvenile hormone-regulating genes to boost brown planthopper fecundity and cause resurgence.

    Sparse innervation and local heterogeneity in the vibrissal corticostriatal projection

    Kenza Amroune, Lorenzo Fontolan ... Ingrid Bureau
    Functional connectivity mapping reveals sparse, specific, and largely complementary cortical innervation of individual striatal medium spiny neurons within overlapping and loosely topographical projections from the barrel cortex.

    Direct modulation of TRPM8 ion channels by rapamycin and analog macrolide immunosuppressants

    Balázs István Tóth, Bahar Bazeli ... Thomas Voets
    Rapamycin, competing with other rapalogs, activates TRPM8 via directly binding to a novel binding site, which results in providing new insights into the mechanisms of TRPM8 activation.

    Observational activation of anterior cingulate cortical neurons coordinates hippocampal replay in social learning

    Xiang Mou, Daoyun Ji
    Neurons selective to running trajectories in the rat anterior cingulate cortex are reactivated during observation and interact with hippocampal replay to guide subsequent spatial navigation.

    Nonlinear feedback modulation contributes to the optimization of flexible decision-making

    Xuanyu Wu, Yang Zhou
    Precise feedback connections in posterior parietal cortex enable iterative computation between decision processes, optimizing flexible decision-making reliability.
