    Stimulus-specific plasticity in human visual gamma-band activity and functional connectivity

    Benjamin J Stauch, Alina Peter ... Pascal Fries
    When visual stimuli are repeated, gamma oscillations in human early visual cortex and feedforward gamma synchronization across the visual system show stimulus-specific and persistent increases.

    Within-host evolutionary dynamics of seasonal and pandemic human influenza A viruses in young children

    Alvin X Han, Zandra C Felix Garza ... Colin A Russell
    The longer duration of seasonal influenza virus infection in young children may provide opportunities for within-host evolution as a result of maintenance of genetic diversity through mutation-selection balance.

    Gjd2b-mediated gap junctions promote glutamatergic synapse formation and dendritic elaboration in Purkinje neurons

    Sahana Sitaraman, Gnaneshwar Yadav ... Vatsala Thirumalai
    A protein that is a building block of intercellular bridges between neurons promotes their ability to grow dendrites and make synapses.

    HIF1α is required for NK cell metabolic adaptation during virus infection

    Francisco Victorino, Tarin M Bigley ... Wayne M Yokoyama
    During pathogen infection, natural killer cells require hypoxia-inducible factor-1α for optimal metabolism to prevent apoptosis, thereby reducing viral load and protecting against morbidity.

    Integrated single-cell analysis unveils diverging immune features of COVID-19, influenza, and other community-acquired pneumonia

    Alex R Schuurman, Tom DY Reijnders ... Tom van der Poll
    Different etiologies of community-acquired pneumonia evoke both shared and diverging immunological responses.

    An oomycete effector subverts host vesicle trafficking to channel starvation-induced autophagy to the pathogen interface

    Pooja Pandey, Alexandre Y Leary ... Tolga O Bozkurt
    A pathogen effector mimics starvation-induced autophagy by subverting host endomembrane trafficking to stimulate biogenesis of autophagosomes around pathogen feeding sites, revealing how pathogens interlock distinct host compartments to facilitate infection.
    1. Neuroscience

    Physiological and motion signatures in static and time-varying functional connectivity and their subject identifiability

    Alba Xifra-Porxas, Michalis Kassinopoulos, Georgios D Mitsis
    BOLD fMRI fluctuations induced by head motion and variations in cardiac and breathing activity lead to artifactual patterns in functional connectivity as well as recurrent patterns in time-varying functional connectivity.
    1. Neuroscience

    Separable pupillary signatures of perception and action during perceptual multistability

    Jan W Brascamp, Gilles de Hollander ... Tomas Knapen
    When conscious visual perception changes, the observer's pupils simultaneously signal the accompanying change in visual cortical representation, and specific neuromodulatory activity that helps translate the altered visual experience into behavior.

    Ciliary and extraciliary Gpr161 pools repress hedgehog signaling in a tissue-specific manner

    Sun-Hee Hwang, Bandarigoda N Somatilaka ... Saikat Mukhopadhyay
    Signaling specifically in cilia by a cAMP generating G-protein-coupled receptor directs tissue-specific morphogenesis.
    1. Neuroscience

    Cortical magnification in human visual cortex parallels task performance around the visual field

    Noah C Benson, Eline R Kupers ... Jonathan Winawer
    In humans, the surface area of early visual cortex across polar angle is distributed in a pattern that correlates strongly with radial asymmetries in behavioral performance on visual tasks.
