The neuropeptide neurotensin can reduce status epilepticus and its associated consequences through induction of therapeutic hypothermia when bound to a molecule that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier.

When carrying out a sequence of movements, humans can plan several steps in advance to make the movement smooth.

Salt stress delays seed germination in plants by increasing the hydrolysis of arginine-derived urea.

Slow and fast movements are controlled by distinct sets of spinal V2a neurons with matching properties and connections.

Regeneration of sensory axons after a burn injury depends on early keratinocyte responses regulated by the wound microenvironment.

The formation of large endolysosomal structures in unfertilized eggs ensures that lysosomes remain dormant before fertilization, and then shift into clean-up mode after the egg-to-embryo transition.

Complementary structural biology approaches reveal how an agonist and a covalent inhibitor simultaneously bind to a nuclear receptor.

By altering which peptide antigens are presented to CD4⁺ T cells, adjuvants affect the specificity of the immune response.

A neural signature of serial dependence has been found, which mirrors the attractive bias of visual information seen in behavioral experiments.

Body movement does not significantly increase neuronal activity in the primary visual cortex of marmosets, in contrast to the effects observed in mice.
