    Coordinated spinal locomotor network dynamics emerge from cell-type-specific connectivity patterns

    F David Wandler, Benjamin K Lemberger ... James M Murray
    A hierarchy of models guided by experimental results from zebrafish shows that coordinated, variable-speed locomotion can emerge from network-level interactions among interneuron populations with structured spatial connectivity.

    The evolution of interdisciplinarity and internationalization in scientific journals

    Huaxia Zhou, Luis A Nunes Amaral
    Analysis of ~50 million articles published in ~50 thousand journals demonstrates that journals have become more diverse in terms of both interdisciplinarity and internationalization but with some disciplinary differences.

    Decision-making components and times revealed by the single-trial electroencephalogram

    Gabriel Weindel, Jelmer P Borst, Leendert van Maanen
    By modeling the single-trial electroencephalogram of participants performing perceptual decisions, and building on predictions from two century-old psychological laws, we estimate the times of information processing steps contained in decision-making.

    Epidermal resident memory T cell fitness requires antigen encounter in the skin

    Eric S Weiss, Toshiro Hirai ... Daniel H Kaplan
    Antigen-driven TCR signaling in the epidermis during CD8+ TRM differentiation results in a lower TGFβ requirement for persistence and increased proliferative capacity that together enhance epidermal TRM fitness.

    Dual-modal metabolic analysis reveals hypothermia-reversible uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal brain hypoxia-ischemia

    Naidi Sun, Yu-Yo Sun ... Song Hu
    Post‑HI oxidative‑phosphorylation uncoupling drives secondary energy failure in neonatal brains, and preventing the post‑HI CMRO2 surge is a key mechanism underlying hypothermia’s neuroprotection.

    Sex differences in bile acid homeostasis and excretion underlie the disparity in liver cancer incidence between males and females

    Megan E Patton, Sherwin Kelekar ... Sayeepriyadarshini Anakk
    Transcriptomic and metabolite analysis reveal sex differences in circulation and excretion of bile acids in a mouse- model of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the identified female-specific gene profile correlates with better HCC survival.

    Therapeutic benefits of maintaining CDK4/6 inhibitors and incorporating CDK2 inhibitors beyond progression in breast cancer

    Jessica Armand, Sungsoo Kim ... Hee Won Yang
    Maintaining CDK4/6 inhibition constrains drug‑resistant breast tumors by delaying cell‑cycle entry, and adding CDK2 inhibition further deepens control to guide post‑progression therapy.

    ANKEF1 is a key axonemal component essential for murine sperm motility and male fertility

    Shuntai Yu, Guoliang Yin ... Fengchao Wang
    ANKEF1 stabilizes the sperm axoneme by reinforcing the nexin–dynein regulatory complex, revealing a mechanical buffering mechanism essential for flagellar integrity and male fertility.

    Morphogenesis and morphometry of brain folding patterns across species

    Sifan Yin, Chunzi Liu ... L Mahadevan
    The morphogenesis of brain folding patterns across species is studied by physical gel models, simulations, and a quantitative morphometric analysis.

    Biophysical basis for brain folding and misfolding patterns in ferrets and humans

    Gary PT Choi, Chunzi Liu ... L Mahadevan
    Physical gel models and numerical simulations have been created to study ferret brain gyrification and cortical malformations, while comparisons with human phenotypes aim to link genetics and brain morphogenesis.
