    An increase of NPY1 expression leads to inhibitory phosphorylation of PIN-FORMED (PIN) proteins and suppression of pinoid (pid) null mutants

    Michael Mudgett, Zhouxin Shen ... Yunde Zhao
    A cause and impact of PIN-FORMED protein phosphorylation has been revealed.

    Postural adaptations may contribute to the unique locomotor energetics seen in hopping kangaroos

    Lauren Thornton, Taylor Dick ... Christofer J Clemente
    Postural adjustments that reduce ankle leverage in kangaroos enhance tendon stress and elastic energy storage at higher speeds, providing energetic efficiency during hopping but potentially constraining the maximum size achievable by large species.

    The fate of pyruvate dictates cell growth by modulating cellular redox potential

    Ashish G Toshniwal, Geanette Lam ... Jared Rutter
    Pyruvate dictates redox balance and cell size, establishing metabolism as a dominant regulator of cellular fitness, unveiling new strategies to modulate cancer, regeneration, and diabetes.

    Lifestyles shape genome size and gene content in fungal pathogens

    Anna Fijarczyk, Pauline Hessenauer ... Christian R Landry
    A genomic analysis shows that the evolution of genome size and gene content among fungal pathogens in the class Sordariomycetes varies depending on their interactions with hosts and vectors.
    1. Cancer Biology

    Endoscopic liquid biopsies of gastric fluid in a large human patient cohort reveal DNA content as a candidate tumor biomarker in gastric cancer

    Francine C Cadoná, Thais F Bartelli ... Emmanuel Dias-Neto
    Elevated gfDNA supports gastric cancer diagnosis and may guide management when combined with tissue biopsies, and in established cancer, higher gfDNA may predict better outcomes, potentially indicating immune-cell infiltration.
    1. Neuroscience

    Strikingly different neurotransmitter release strategies in dopaminergic subclasses

    Ana Dorrego-Rivas, Darren J Byrne ... Matthew S Grubb
    Different locations of neurotransmitter release sites in axon-bearing and anaxonic olfactory bulb dopaminergic neurons allow self-inhibition only in anaxonic cells, showing how polarity differences create separate functional roles in sensory processing.

    Transcriptional subtypes on immune microenvironment and predicting postoperative recurrence and metastasis in human pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma

    Yang Liu, Xu Yan ... Lingyu Li
    Distinct transcriptional subtypes in PPGLs link molecular programs with immune context, providing biomarkers for recurrence risk and therapeutic targeting.
    1. Neuroscience

    Dissociable memory modulation mechanisms facilitate fear amnesia at different timescales

    Yinmei Ni, Ye Wang ... Jian Li
    The retrieval-extinction paradigm elicits a short-term fear amnesia that differs in cue specificity, timescale, and dependence on thought-control ability from the long-term amnesia believed to be associated with memory reconsolidation.
