    Cholinergic modulation shifts the response of CA1 pyramidal cells to depolarizing ramps via TRPM4 channels with potential implications for place field firing

    Crescent L Combe, Carol M Upchurch ... Sonia Gasparini
    A nonspecific cation current mediated by TRPM4 channels is a major contributor to the increase in excitability induced by cholinergic modulation in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, which are thought to play an important role in episodic memory.

    Huntingtin recruits KIF1A to transport synaptic vesicle precursors along the mouse axon to support synaptic transmission and motor skill learning

    Hélène Vitet, Julie Bruyère ... Frédéric Saudou
    Studies in mice and neurons reveal how modulation of the axonal transport of synaptic vesicles via huntingtin phosphorylation influences the number of vesicles accumulating at the synapse, subsequent glutamate release, and behavior in mice.

    Building resilient cervical cancer prevention through gender-neutral HPV vaccination

    Irene Man, Damien Georges ... Iacopo Baussano
    Shifting from girls-only to gender-neutral HPV vaccination strategy improves the resilience of cervical cancer prevention and enhances progress towards cervical cancer elimination.

    Multiplexed microfluidic screening of bacterial chemotaxis

    Michael R Stehnach, Richard J Henshaw ... Jeffrey S Guasto
    A multiplexed microfluidic device was developed to facilitate high-throughput screening of bacterial chemotaxis on a single chip and demonstrated across a range of microbes, chemostimulants, and chemical gradient conditions.

    Spatial determination and prognostic impact of the fibroblast transcriptome in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

    Wayne Croft, Hayden Pearce ... Paul Moss
    Profiling spatially defined fibroblasts in the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumor microenvironment identifies high levels of podoplanin and hypoxia in tumor-proximal fibroblasts associated with bad prognosis, whilst inflammatory markers define more distal fibroblast regions and associate with better outcomes.

    Mitochondrial MICOS complex genes, implicated in hypoplastic left heart syndrome, maintain cardiac contractility and actomyosin integrity

    Katja Birker, Shuchao Ge ... Rolf Bodmer
    Genes of the MICOS complex are a major candidate pathway to be potentially linked to defects in cardiomyocyte growth and differentiation in Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), and relevant for elucidating the polygenic nature of HLHS and other CHDs.

    Structure of the HIV immature lattice allows for essential lattice remodeling within budded virions

    Sikao Guo, Ipsita Saha ... Margaret E Johnson
    Proteins locked into the immature HIV lattice can exploit its incomplete structure to form the essential protease dimer needed for viral maturation.

    Photoreceptor disc incisures form as an adaptive mechanism ensuring the completion of disc enclosure

    Tylor R Lewis, Sebastien Phan ... Vadim Y Arshavsky
    Maturation of light-sensitive 'disc' membranes in vertebrate photoreceptors requires a precise balance between their content of the visual pigment rhodopsin forming the disc body and tetraspanin proteins forming the disc rim.
