    Endocytic trafficking determines cellular tolerance of presynaptic opioid signaling

    Damien Jullié, Camila Benitez ... Mark von Zastrow
    Quantitative imaging of neurons reveals how opioid agonists produce long-term functional tolerance at presynaptic terminals through rapid internalization of receptors from the axonal surface.

    Mother cells control daughter cell proliferation in intestinal organoids to minimize proliferation fluctuations

    Guizela Huelsz-Prince, Rutger Nico Ulbe Kok ... Jeroen S van Zon
    Tracking of all cells in intestinal organoids crypts to fully reconstruct cell lineages reveals that proliferative behavior is highly symmetric between sisters cells, while simulations show that this observed symmetry minimizes random fluctuations in cell proliferation, thereby ensuring homeostasis.

    Latent functional diversity may accelerate microbial community responses to temperature fluctuations

    Thomas P Smith, Shorok Mombrikotb ... Thomas Bell
    A novel species-sorting experiment finds that phylogenetically and functionally distinct microbial communities emerge under different temperature conditions due to the resuscitation of latent diversity.

    A motor neuron disease-associated mutation produces non-glycosylated Seipin that induces ER stress and apoptosis by inactivating SERCA2b

    Shunsuke Saito, Tokiro Ishikawa ... Kazutoshi Mori
    When non-glycosylated, Seipin, which spans the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane twice, forms aggregates in an oligomerization-dependent manner, distorts the shape of the ER, and incorporates SERCA2b via direct interaction, inactivation of which results in induction of ER stress and apoptosis.

    Large-scale analysis and computer modeling reveal hidden regularities behind variability of cell division patterns in Arabidopsis thaliana embryogenesis

    Elise Laruelle, Katia Belcram ... Philippe Andrey
    Self-organization based on a feedback loop between cell geometry and division plane positioning plays a central role in the building of tissue architectures in Arabidopsis thaliana embryo through both stereotyped and variable division patterns.

    Improving the accuracy of single-trial fMRI response estimates using GLMsingle

    Jacob S Prince, Ian Charest ... Kendrick N Kay
    GLMsingle is a publicly available toolbox for analyzing fMRI time-series data that leverages data-driven optimization techniques to improve the accuracy of single-trial BOLD response estimates.

    Cellular reprogramming with ATOH1, GFI1, and POU4F3 implicate epigenetic changes and cell-cell signaling as obstacles to hair cell regeneration in mature mammals

    Amrita A Iyer, Ishwar Hosamani ... Andrew K Groves
    Cells of the mammalian cochlea can be reprogrammed to produce mechanosensory hair cells, but epigenetic changes in the cochlea make this process less efficient with age.

    Functional connectivity subtypes associate robustly with ASD diagnosis

    Sebastian GW Urchs, Angela Tam ... Pierre Bellec
    Unsupervised clustering of the heterogeneous functional brain organization in autism reveals generalizable patterns of connectivity alterations that extend to the general population.

    Coordinated multiplexing of information about separate objects in visual cortex

    Na Young Jun, Douglas A Ruff ... Jennifer M Groh
    Two distinct objects evoke fluctuating activity in visual cortex in a manner that could preserve information about both items.
