Active uptake and metabolism of maternal vitamin D by the placenta determine fetal exposure to vitamin D and how vitamin D regulates the placental transcriptome, which is also determined by its underlying epigenetic landscape, and proteome.

4-Vinylanisole acts as maturation-accelerating pheromone to synchronize oocyte maturation of female adults in locusts.

Phosphorylation of the phosphatase SHP-1 by PKC-θ in natural killer (NK) cells induces SHP-1 inhibition, revealing a novel molecular pathway that sustains NK cell activation threshold.

After myocardial infarction, gut microbiota affects platelet aggregation rate by regulating the absorption and metabolism of ticagrelor.

Studies of bacterial chemotaxis reveal how limitations in single-cell sensing of stimuli influence large-scale population morphology.

Muscarinic excitation of a previously ignored subtype of periglomerular interneuron in the olfactory bulb by endogenous synaptic release of acetylcholine.

Single myofiber ATAC-Seq provides assessment of chromatin accessibility of a single myofiber without the confounding effects of other cell types present in skeletal muscle.

Prediction error responses in layer 2/3 of mouse visual cortex are shaped by experience-dependent modifications of the local cortical circuit.

Surface plasmon resonance studies reveal that clustered protocadherins have precisely tuned trans homophilic binding interactions and promiscuous but variable cis interactions, consistent with the requirement of forming error-free linear molecular zippers used by mammalian neurons to distinguish self from nonself.

Cellular, genetic, and biochemical assays shows that the application of a specific type of currents in mouse tendons induces an inflammatory response that favors the regeneration of the tissue, being a treatment for chronic tendinopathy lesions.
