    Anti-inflammatory therapy with nebulized dornase alfa for severe COVID-19 pneumonia: a randomized unblinded trial

    Joanna C Porter, Jamie Inshaw ... Venizelos Papayannopoulos
    Nebulized dornase alfa endonuclease reduces inflammation, coagulopathy, and the length of hospitalization in individuals with severe COVID-19 pneumonia.

    Differential functions of the dorsal and intermediate regions of the hippocampus for optimal goal-directed navigation in VR space

    Hyeri Hwang, Seung-Woo Jin, Inah Lee
    The intermediate region of the hippocampus is critical for strategic goal-directed navigation to the higher-value location, whereas the dorsal hippocampus implements the precise targeting of the goal location.

    Specific and comprehensive genetic targeting reveals brain-wide distribution and synaptic input patterns of GABAergic axo-axonic interneurons

    Ricardo Raudales, Gukhan Kim ... Z Josh Huang
    A lineage-based intersectional genetic approach reveals brain-wide distribution and input connectivity of axo-axonic interneuron cells and establishes experimental access to study the circuit function of a ground truth cell type.

    Discovery of runs-of-homozygosity diplotype clusters and their associations with diseases in UK Biobank

    Ardalan Naseri, Degui Zhi, Shaojie Zhang
    ROH-DICE is an efficient method for detecting ROH clusters in biobank data, enabling the study of population history of large cohorts, and providing a new genome-wide association analysis approach for finding disease-causing loci with multi-marker recessive effects.

    Glutamate neurotransmission from leptin receptor cells is required for typical puberty and reproductive function in female mice

    Cristina Sáenz de Miera, Nicole Bellefontaine ... Carol F Elias
    Glutamate neurotransmission from hypothalamic ventral premammillary nucleus is indispensable for leptin action in pubertal development and typical reproduction.

    Emerging role of oncogenic ß-catenin in exosome biogenesis as a driver of immune escape in hepatocellular carcinoma

    Camille Dantzer, Justine Vaché ... Violaine Moreau
    Findings identify a new link between oncogenic ß-catenin and exosome biogenesis, which may serve as an important nodal point in the immune escape of hepatocellular carcinoma.

    Emotional vocalizations alter behaviors and neurochemical release into the amygdala

    Zahra Ghasemahmad, Aaron Mrvelj ... Jeffrey J Wenstrup
    The modulatory neurochemicals acetylcholine and dopamine are released differentially into the basolateral amygdala depending on the emotional content of vocalizations and the sex, hormonal state, and experience of listening animals.

    Enrichment of rare codons at 5' ends of genes is a spandrel caused by evolutionary sequence turnover and does not improve translation

    Richard Sejour, Janet Leatherwood ... Bruce Futcher
    The 5' ends of genes are slightly enriched for rare codons largely because the ends turnover in evolution and gather rare codons, and these rare codons do not improve translation.
