Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance spectroscopy and microstructural modelling longitudinally tracks cell-specific cerebellar development to non-invasively monitor, and better understand, early brain microstructure.
A novel approach has been developed to partition the net biodiversity effect into components associated with positive, negative, and competitive species interactions.
Chronic stress impairs the autoinhibition in locus coeruleus neurons by inducing the internalization of α2A adrenaline receptors, which causes their overexcitation and consequently induces their degeneration by producing active asparagine endopeptidase.

'Push-pull' agro-ecosystems appear to protect maize against the fall armyworm, but volatiles from Desmodium intercrops are not sufficient to reliably repel this herbivore, indicating that additional mechanisms contribute to protection.
Megakaryocytes form a 3D cage of laminin and collagen IV that stabilizes them within their vascular niche, while β1/β3 integrins and MMP are key regulators that assist megakaryocyte maturation and intravasation.
