    Nanoscopy reveals heparan sulfate clusters as docking sites for SARS-CoV-2 attachment and entry

    Sue Han, Xin Wang ... Ling-Gang Wu
    Cell-surface heparan sulfate clusters, not the generally assumed ACE2, mediate SARS-CoV-2 attachment and endocytic entry, fundamentally revising the viral entry paradigm and establishing heparan sulfate as a primary therapeutic target.

    Heterotypic interfacial tension between oncogenic and wild-type populations forms the mechanical basis of tissue-specific oncogenesis in epithelia

    Amrapali Datta, Phanindra Dewan ... Medhavi Vishwakarma
    Mechanical interactions at the interface of mutant and wild-type cell populations govern tissue-specific responses to oncogenic transformation in epithelia, causing mutants to be extruded, spatially restrained, or undergo persistent expansion.

    Brainstem neurons coordinate the bladder and urethral sphincter for urination

    Xing Li, Xianping Li ... Jiwei Yao
    Estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1)-positive neurons in the pontine micturition center govern detrusor–sphincter coordination via three distinct spinal projections, representing a therapeutic target for detrusor–sphincter dyssynergia and associated voiding dysfunction.

    Efficient and reproducible pipelines for spike sorting large-scale electrophysiology data

    Alessio Paolo Buccino, Arjun Sridhar ... Joshua H Siegle
    Parallelized, cloud-compatible pipelines reduce spike sorting of large-scale neural recordings from weeks to hours, and enable systematic benchmarking of algorithms on hybrid data.

    High-throughput quantification of population dynamics using luminescence

    Malte Muetter, Daniel C Angst ... Sebastian Bonhoeffer
    Tracking luminescent reporter light intensity is a fast, easy way to quantify population decline at high concentrations and tends to be a better proxy for biomass than for cell number.

    Boosting hyperalignment performance with age-specific templates

    Yuqi Zhang, Maria Ida Gobbini ... Ma Feilong
    Age-specific templates improve the quality of functional alignment using hyperalignment algorithms, and the improvement is consistent across age groups, validation analyses, and datasets.

    Apparent cooperativity between human CMV virions introduces errors in conventional methods of calculating multiplicity of infection

    Christopher Peterson, Joshua Miller ... Vitaly V Ganusov
    Cooperation between individual virions of human cytomegalovirus at infecting cells leads to nonlinear scaling of cell infection probability with virion concentration.

    Microenvironmental arginine restriction sensitizes pancreatic cancers to polyunsaturated fatty acids by suppression of lipid synthesis

    Patrick B Jonker, Mumina Sadullozoda ... Alexander Muir
    Modeling the metabolic microenvironment of pancreatic tumors leads to the identification of polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism as a vulnerability of pancreatic cancer.
