    HIF1α stabilization in hypoxia is not oxidant-initiated

    Amit Kumar, Manisha Vaish ... Rajiv R Ratan
    The current findings address the redox regulation of hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) stability in hypoxia by showing that cytosolic, mitochondrial or lipid ROS are not necessary for HIF1α stabilization in hypoxia.

    Retinoic acid signaling is directly activated in cardiomyocytes and protects mouse hearts from apoptosis after myocardial infarction

    Fabio Da Silva, Fariba Jian Motamedi ... Andreas Schedl
    Lineage tracing and genetic experiments resolve a long-standing controversy by showing that retinoic acid signaling is active in cardiomyocytes, both during development and after myocardial infarction, and protects damaged hearts from apoptosis.

    Antimicrobials from a feline commensal bacterium inhibit skin infection by drug-resistant S. pseudintermedius

    Alan M O'Neill, Kate A Worthing ... Richard L Gallo
    The discovery and development of a feline skin commensal bacterium for bacteriotherapy against skin disease, that could benefit patients due to established low cytotoxicity, broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and anti-inflammatory activity.

    Identifying Plasmodium falciparum transmission patterns through parasite prevalence and entomological inoculation rate

    Benjamin Amoah, Robert S McCann ... Emanuele Giorgi
    Estimating fine-scale spatiotemporal patterns of Plasmodium falciparum transmission showed an association between entomological inoculation rate and parasite prevalence that emphasizes the value of both measures in malaria surveillance.

    Decreased recent adaptation at human mendelian disease genes as a possible consequence of interference between advantageous and deleterious variants

    Chenlu Di, Jesus Murga Moreno ... David Enard
    Harmful genetic variants at mendelian disease genes slow down adaptation, by interfering with the spread of adaptive variants in a population.
    1. Neuroscience

    Neuropsychological evidence of multi-domain network hubs in the human thalamus

    Kai Hwang, James M Shine ... Aaron Boes
    Lesions to the anterior-medio-dorsal thalamus cause widespread behavioral impairments across multiple cognitive domains, suggesting that thalamic hubs are critical for interconnecting diverse cognitive processes.
    1. Neuroscience

    Experience-dependent weakening of callosal synaptic connections in the absence of postsynaptic FMRP

    Zhe Zhang, Jay R Gibson, Kimberly M Huber
    Postnatal, postsynaptic loss of FMRP specifically weakens callosal synaptic inputs onto L2/3 pyramidal neurons, in requirement ofnormal sensory experience, through downregulating AMPA receptor transmission and without affecting local synaptic inputs during cortical circuit development.

    Modulation of fracture healing by the transient accumulation of senescent cells

    Dominik Saul, David G Monroe ... Sundeep Khosla
    Senescent cells accumulate in the fracture callus and a reduction in the number of these cells accelerates fracture healing in mice.

    Multiscale analysis reveals that diet-dependent midgut plasticity emerges from alterations in both stem cell niche coupling and enterocyte size

    Alessandro Bonfini, Adam J Dobson ... Nicolas Buchon
    The nutrient composition of food alters both the size of gut epithelial cells and the ability of the stem cell niche to control tissue turnover, resulting in changes in size at the organ level.
