    Macroscopic control of cell electrophysiology through ion channel expression

    Mario García-Navarrete, Merisa Avdovic ... Krzysztof Wabnik
    A combination of mathematical modeling and live-cell imaging reveals a strategy for the rational control over cell electrophysiology though modulation of ion channel expression.

    Insulin sensitivity is preserved in mice made obese by feeding a high starch diet

    Amanda E Brandon, Lewin Small ... Gregory J Cooney
    Mice made obese by feeding a high starch diet do not develop insulin resistance like mice made similarly obese by a high fat diet and this is associated with differences in specific bioactive ceramide species in liver and muscle tissue.

    High-throughput proteomics of nanogram-scale samples with Zeno SWATH MS

    Ziyue Wang, Michael Mülleder ... Markus Ralser
    Zeno SWATH MS, a novel data-independent acquisition technique in proteomics, which by facilitating sensitive detection in high-throughput experiments with low sample amounts, mitigates current bottlenecks of high-throughput proteomics.

    Spinosaurus is not an aquatic dinosaur

    Paul C Sereno, Nathan Myhrvold ... Lauren L Conroy
    A digital flesh model of the sail-backed dinosaur Spinosaurus was tested and performed very poorly in water, favoring the view of this dinosaur as a two-legged, wading ambush predator of large fish in shallow waterways and not an aquatic dinosaur.

    Deep proteome profiling reveals signatures of age and sex differences in paw skin and sciatic nerve of naïve mice

    Feng Xian, Julia Regina Sondermann ... Manuela Schmidt
    Proteomics uncovers thus far unknown age and sex differences in sciatic nerve and skin of naïve mice, highlighting the importance of adequate age matching and parallel investigation of male and female mice in biomedical studies.

    The RAM signaling pathway links morphology, thermotolerance, and CO2 tolerance in the global fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans

    Benjamin J Chadwick, Tuyetnhu Pham ... Xiaorong Lin
    In the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans, the RAM pathway, potentially through post-transcriptional regulation, plays an essential role in adaptation to host temperature and CO2.

    Single-cell transcriptomics identifies Keap1-Nrf2 regulated collective invasion in a Drosophila tumor model

    Deeptiman Chatterjee, Caique Almeida Machado Costa ... Wu-Min Deng
    Comprehensive transcriptomic analyses describe the underlying tumorigenic gene expression state in the invasive Drosophila follicle cells following the loss of epithelial cell polarity and identify a non-canonical role of Keap1-Nrf2 signaling in regulating collective cell invasion.

    The Nse5/6-like SIMC1-SLF2 complex localizes SMC5/6 to viral replication centers

    Martina Oravcová, Minghua Nie ... Michael N Boddy
    SIMC1 and SLF1 bind exclusively to SLF2 to form two separate complexes that direct the human SMC5/6 complex to its antiviral defense or DNA lesion repair activities.

    Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms and brain morphology: Examining confounding bias

    Lorenza Dall'Aglio, Hannah H Kim ... Henning Tiemeier
    Approximately half of the associations identified between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and brain morphology in two large independent studies of adolescents are likely due to confounding bias by socioeconomic and parental behavioral factors.

    Evolution and regulation of microbial secondary metabolism

    Guillem Santamaria, Chen Liao ... Joao B Xavier
    Strains of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa that use secondary metabolism to make surfactants and change the surface tension of the liquid that surrounds them do so only if they can first meet their primary metabolic needs.
