Loss of the glutamate transporters EAAT5b and EAAT7 disrupts wavelength-specific visual processing and UV-dependent prey detection in zebrafish, revealing their key roles in modulating light integration and behaviorally relevant vision.

Optimal cue integration, Bayesian Causal Inference, spatial orienting, speech illusions and other key phenomena in audiovisual perception naturally emerge from the collective behavior of a population of Multisensory Correlation Detector.

Sub-membrane microtubule array, known to prevent excessive glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, depends on kinesin-1 KIF5B, which moves microtubules to both generate and remodel this array, potentially regulating the dosage of secretion.

New psychoactive substances activate cannabinoid receptors using distinct ligand-receptor interactions.

The insecticidal activity of betulin, a plant-derived metabolite, against the peach aphid depends on specific targeting and inhibition of MpGABR.

Short heat shock factor variants prevent hyperactivation of thermotolerance through a noncanonical heat shock response, thereby balancing heat stress response and plant growth.

Custom-tailored bathy-phytochromes control bacterial gene expression by near-infrared light while exhibiting minimal response to red light, thus unlocking innovative application scenarios.

Ion channel voltage-dependence alterations can shape intrinsic homeostatic plasticity, even if operating faster than other intrinsic regulatory processes—where timescale separation would suggest its influence should be negligible.

A size exclusion strategy using PEGylation of isoprenaline allowed to demonstrate that cardiac β-adrenergic receptors located in the outer surface membrane control mainly cAMP/PKA in the cytosol while those located in the T-tubule membrane control cAMP/PKA in the nucleus.

A novel form of collective mesenchymal cell migration is identified during chick gastrulation, where a dynamic 3D meshwork supported by N-cadherin-mediated adhesion coordinates movement and enhances directional migration in the unconfined space between ectoderm and endoderm.
