    Initiation of HIV-1 Gag lattice assembly is required for recognition of the viral genome packaging signal

    Xiao Lei, Daniel Gonçalves-Carneiro ... Paul D Bieniasz
    Initiation of the assembly of HIV-1 particles in infected cells is required to form a subviral structure that recognizes the viral RNA genome for packaging.

    A unified neural account of contextual and individual differences in altruism

    Jie Hu, Arkady Konovalov, Christian C Ruff
    Individual and situational differences in altruistic behavior do not reflect use of fundamentally different decision mechanisms, but instead differences in early perceptual or attentional processing of the choice-relevant information.

    Coordinated evolution at amino acid sites of SARS-CoV-2 spike

    Alexey Dmitrievich Neverov, Gennady Fedonin ... Georgii Bazykin
    Analysis of population diversity of SARS-CoV-2 revealed positive epistasis between sites carrying mutations characterizing rapidly expanding lineages.

    IL-4 and helminth infection downregulate MINCLE-dependent macrophage response to mycobacteria and Th17 adjuvanticity

    Judith Schick, Meltem Altunay ... Roland Lang
    The expression of DECTIN-2 family C-type lectin receptors on macrophages and monocytes is inhibited by the Th2 cytokine IL-4, which suggests a mechanism for inhibition of Th17 responses to MINCLE-dependent vaccination responses by underlying helminth infection.

    The mini-IDLE 3D biomimetic culture assay enables interrogation of mechanisms governing muscle stem cell quiescence and niche repopulation

    Erik Jacques, Yinni Kuang ... Penney M Gilbert
    A user-friendly, and modular, 3D skeletal muscle culture assay enables iterative studies of murine muscle stem cell pool size regulation, functional heterogeneity, return to quiescence, and age-associated functional defects within a 96-well footprint.

    Uncovering perturbations in human hematopoiesis associated with healthy aging and myeloid malignancies at single-cell resolution

    Marina Ainciburu, Teresa Ezponda ... Felipe Prosper
    Single-cell transcriptomics reveals altered pathways, gene expression dynamics, and activation of transcriptional programs in human early hematopoiesis during healthy aging and myelodysplastic syndromes.

    Histological E-data Registration in rodent Brain Spaces

    Jingyi Guo Fuglstad, Pearl Saldanha ... Jonathan R Whitlock
    HERBS is a catch-all anatomical registration toolkit allowing users to plan surgical coordinates in advance, or visualize anatomical data post hoc in 2D or 3D brain volumes for rats, mice, or any species that has a compatible atlas.

    Participation in the nationwide cervical cancer screening programme in Denmark during the COVID-19 pandemic: An observational study

    Tina Bech Olesen, Henry Jensen ... Berit Andersen
    The participation in cervical cancer screening in Denmark was reduced at the start of the pandemic although with longer follow-up time most women resumed screening.

    Chloride-dependent mechanisms of multimodal sensory discrimination and nociceptive sensitization in Drosophila

    Nathaniel J Himmel, Akira Sakurai ... Daniel N Cox
    Anoctamin/TMEM16 and SLC12 co-transporter genes selectively function in regulating cold nociception via excitatory chloride currents and can promote neuropathic sensitization phenotypes, including behavioral sensitization and neuronal hyperexcitability in Drosophila multimodal sensory neurons.

    Antisense oligonucleotide therapy rescues disturbed brain rhythms and sleep in juvenile and adult mouse models of Angelman syndrome

    Dongwon Lee, Wu Chen ... Mingshan Xue
    Reactivation of paternal Ube3a by an ASO therapy in juvenile and adult mouse models of Angelman syndrome reverses the impairments of EEG power spectrum and sleep pattern, suggesting that these two core disease features may be improved by such therapies.
