    An open-source tool for automated analysis of breathing behaviors in common marmosets and rodents

    Mitchell Bishop, Maximilian Weinhold ... Shahriar SheikhBahaei
    The introduced Python tool was used to characterize breathing behaviors of common marmosets in room air and acute hypoxic (10% O2) and hypercapnic (6% CO2) conditions.

    Visualizing cellular and tissue ultrastructure using Ten-fold Robust Expansion Microscopy (TREx)

    Hugo GJ Damstra, Boaz Mohar ... Paul W Tillberg
    Ten-fold Robust Expansion Microscopy (TREx) is a new method for 10-fold physical expansion of specimens in one round of gel embedding, enabling nanoscale imaging of antibody stains and ultrastructural detail.

    Influence of sensory modality and control dynamics on human path integration

    Akis Stavropoulos, Kaushik J Lakshminarasimhan ... Dora E Angelaki
    Human path integration accuracy is strongly influenced by the underlying control dynamics, but less so when visual, rather than vestibular, feedback is available.

    Hematodinium sp. infection does not drive collateral disease contraction in a crustacean host

    Charlotte E Davies, Jessica E Thomas ... Christopher J Coates
    Neither the presence nor the intensity of Hematodinium sp. parasitisation drives co-infection occurrence, severity, or diversity in the ecologically ubiquitous shore crab, Carcinus maenas.

    Cannabidiol activates neuronal Kv7 channels

    Han-Xiong Bear Zhang, Laurel Heckman ... Bruce P Bean
    The phytocannabinoid cannabidiol, an antiepileptic agent whose molecular targets are unclear, was found to potently enhance current carried by cloned human Kv7.2/7.3 channels and native M-current in mouse and rat neurons.

    A genetic compensatory mechanism regulated by Jun and Mef2d modulates the expression of distinct class IIa Hdacs to ensure peripheral nerve myelination and repair

    Sergio Velasco-Aviles, Nikiben Patel ... Hugo Cabedo
    Myelin generation during development and nerve regeneration is guaranteed by responsive backup circuits that coordinate class IIa HDACs to repress the expression of negative regulators of myelination and permit Schwann cell differentiation in response to cAMP.

    Myelination synchronizes cortical oscillations by consolidating parvalbumin-mediated phasic inhibition

    Mohit Dubey, Maria Pascual-Garcia ... Maarten HP Kole
    Demyelination disrupts fast inhibition of pyramidal neurons, thereby changing neocortical rhythms and causing the emergence of brief epileptic-like discharges.

    Neural correlates and determinants of approach–avoidance conflict in the prelimbic prefrontal cortex

    Jose A Fernandez-Leon, Douglas S Engelke ... Fabricio H Do Monte
    A combination of electrophysiological and optogenetic approaches revealed a causal role for glutamatergic neurons in the prelimbic cortex in regulating individual differences in decision-making strategies during a threat-avoidance vs. reward-approach conflict paradigm in rats.

    DunedinPACE, a DNA methylation biomarker of the pace of aging

    Daniel W Belsky, Avshalom Caspi ... Terrie E Moffitt
    DunedinPACE is a novel DNA methylation biomarker of the pace of biological aging for intervention trials and natural experiment studies investigating how the rate of aging may be changed by behavioral or drug therapy, or by environmental modification.

    Protein visualization and manipulation in Drosophila through the use of epitope tags recognized by nanobodies

    Jun Xu, Ah-Ram Kim ... Norbert Perrimon
    The in vitro and in vivo characterization of two nanobody/NanoTag pairs in the Drosophila system provides a variety of assays for protein detection and manipulation.
