Dietary nitrate supplementation could effectively prevent irradiation therapy-induced xerostomia for patients with head and neck cancer, providing a novel, safe, and effective way to resolve this issue.

Gestational exposure to landscape fire smoke harms maternal health, especially in low and middle-income countries.

A review of studies in the life sciences shows that inappropriate statistical approaches may distort conclusions on sex differences.

Antibody production upon vaccination requires antigen-specific T follicular helper cells whose formation can be suppressed by pro-inflammatory cytokine signalling.

Bacterial population can coordinate individuals of different phenotypes by spatial modulation of their run-and-tumble behaviors, resulting in collective group migration with an ordered structure of phenotypes.

After experimentally simulated within-group conflict, dwarf mongoose bystanders engage in post-conflict management behaviour with a temporal delay.

Discovery of a non-canonical mechanism for decreasing protein kinase A activity that does not require lowering of cyclic AMP.

A novel mathematical modeling framework for antibiotic-resistant bacteria combining within-host microbiome-pathogen interactions with population-level pathogen epidemiology, demonstrating how antibiotic consumption and ecological competition come together to drive the spread of resistance.

Behavioral, optogenetic, and computational modeling analyses show that the roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans uses a relaxation oscillation mechanism to generate rhythmic locomotor patterns.

The coordinate activity of Sec17/SNAP and Sec18/NSF for membrane fusion is not limited to systems with homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting (HOPS), the lysosomal/vacuolar tethering, and SNARE assembly complex.
