    Sense of control buffers against stress

    Jennifer C Fielder, Jinyu Shi ... Nikolaus Steinbeis
    A novel behavioural task that measures and manipulates subjective control in humans reveals that experimentally heightened feelings of control buffer against the negative impact of subsequent stress.

    Sex peptide targets distinct higher order processing neurons in the brain to induce the female post-mating response

    Mohanakarthik P Nallasivan, Deepanshu ND Singh ... Matthias Soller
    Sex peptide response-inducing neurons (SPRINz) in the central brain can induce female post-mating responses through sex peptide received by mating.

    Progressive overfilling of readily releasable pool underlies short-term facilitation at recurrent excitatory synapses in layer 2/3 of the rat prefrontal cortex

    Jiwoo Shin, Seung Yeon Lee ... Suk-Ho Lee
    Excitatory recurrent synapses in the upper pyramidal layer of the prefrontal cortex exhibit delayed short-term facilitation, despite very high vesicular fusion probability, through synaptotagmin 7-dependent overfilling of release sites.

    Accessibility of the unstructured α-tubulin C-terminal tail is controlled by microtubule lattice conformation

    Takashi Hotta, Morgan L Pimm ... Kristen J Verhey
    Three newly developed biosensors demonstrate that the C-terminal tail of α-tubulin does not freely extend from the microtubule surface as widely thought, but rather is inaccessible along most microtubules in cells.

    In vivo autofluorescence lifetime imaging of spatial metabolic heterogeneities and learning-induced changes in the Drosophila mushroom body

    Philémon Roussel, Mingyi Zhou ... Auguste Genovesio
    Metabolic imaging of the Drosophila mushroom body reveals distinct profiles among Kenyon cell subtypes and detects a subtle learning-associated metabolic change.

    Mouse sensorimotor cortex reflects complex kinematic details during reaching and grasping

    Harrison A Grier, Sohrab Salimian, Matthew T Kaufman
    Mouse primary motor and somatosensory cortices contain detailed information about the many time-varying arm and paw joint angles during reaching and grasping, implying a 'low-level' role in controlling these movements.

    Citalopram exhibits immune-dependent anti-tumor effects by modulating C5aR1+ TAMs

    Fangyuan Dong, Shan Zhang ... Shu-Heng Jiang
    Drug repurposing analyses show that citalopram exerts anti-tumor effects by targeting C5aR1 on tumor-associated macrophages to enhance phagocytosis and CD8+ T cell immunity.

    Mouse skeletal muscle satellite cells co-opt the tenogenic gene Scleraxis to instruct regeneration

    Yun Bai, Tyler Harvey ... Chen-Ming Fan
    Muscle stem cells repurpose the tenogenic factor Scx to establish a muscle-specific transcriptional program that sustains stem cell expansion, migration, differentiation, fusion, self-renewal, and survival.

    Glycolysis-dependent sulfur metabolism orchestrates morphological plasticity and virulence in fungi

    Dhrumi Shah, Nikita Rewatkar ... Sriram Varahan
    A multidisciplinary approach demonstrates that glycolysis orchestrates fungal morphogenesis and virulence by regulating the de novo biosynthesis of sulfur-containing amino acids, thereby establishing a novel metabolic paradigm.

    Suppression of interferon signaling via small-molecule modulation of TFAM

    Dionisia Sideris, Husan Lee ... Lin Lyu
    Small-molecule mitochondrial transcription factor A modulators stabilize mtDNA, preventing cytosolic escape and suppressing cGAS-STING interferon signaling, while improving bioenergetics and fibrosis markers in disease models.
