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.
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.

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.
Distinct transcriptional subtypes in PPGLs link molecular programs with immune context, providing biomarkers for recurrence risk and therapeutic targeting.
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.
Analyzing population-level chromatin accessibility data shows added benefit over utilizing only gene expression data in elucidating the genetic mechanism of disease-associated variants.
