    The capsule and genetic background, rather than specific individual loci, strongly influence in vitro pneumococcal growth kinetics

    Chrispin Chaguza, Daan W Arends ... Amelieke JH Cremers
    The pneumococcal capsular serotype and genetic background, as well as a combination of genomic loci, influence intrinsic pneumococcal growth kinetics, which may have implications for pneumococcal disease pathogenesis.

    TopBP1 biomolecular condensates as a new therapeutic target in advanced-stage colorectal cancer

    Laura Morano, Nadia Vezzio-Vié ... Jihane Basbous
    Pharmacological disruption of TopBP1 condensation impairs ATR signaling, promotes DNA damage and apoptosis, and enhances the efficacy of FOLFIRI chemotherapy in colorectal cancer.

    Twist is the key to the gating of mechanosensitive ion channel NOMPC

    Jingze Duan, Chen Song
    Rotation of the transient receptor potential (TRP) domain appears to be a universal mechanism for gating of the TRP channel family, including the mechanosensitive ion channel NOMPC.

    Exploring neurodevelopment via spatiotemporal collation of anatomical networks with NeuroSC

    Noelle L Koonce, Sarah E Emerson ... Daniel A Colón-Ramos
    NeuroSC provides an open-source framework for comparative connectomics, integrating neuronal morphologies, contacts, and synapses across developmental stages and datasets.

    3D directional tuning in the orofacial sensorimotor cortex during natural feeding and drinking

    Victoria B Hosack, Fritzie Arce-McShane
    There is significant information about continuous 3D tongue direction contained in the primate orofacial sensorimotor cortex during untrained tasks, and alterations to tongue kinematics and directional tuning with temporarily induced sensory loss.
    1. Neuroscience

    Asymmetric cortical projections to striatal direct and indirect pathways distinctly control actions

    Jason R Klug, Xunyi Yan ... Xin Jin
    A modified rabies-based circuit-mapping strategy combined with physiology, optogenetics, and behavior identifies asymmetric corticostriatal subcircuits that exert distinct control over actions.

    Probing the role of synaptic adhesion molecule RTN4RL2 in setting up cochlear connectivity

    Nare Karagulyan, Maja Überegger ... Christine Bandtlow
    Loss of RTN4RL2 disrupts synapse formation and function between inner hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons, leading to elevated auditory thresholds and highlighting its critical role in hearing.

    The unique synaptic circuitry of specialized olfactory glomeruli in Drosophila melanogaster

    Lydia Gruber, Rafael Cantera ... Jürgen Rybak
    A novel connectomics approach reveals synaptic connectivity differences between narrowly and broadly tuned olfactory glomeruli in Drosophila melanogaster, providing new insights into glomerular circuitry and its putative computational roles.
