    Proteomic analysis shows decreased type I fibers and ectopic fat accumulation in skeletal muscle from women with PCOS

    Elisabet Stener-Victorin, Gustaw Eriksson ... Anna Benrick
    Elevated levels of ectopic fat and a decreased number of oxidative insulin-sensitive type I muscle fibers in skeletal muscle could lead to insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

    Selection on plastic adherence leads to hyper-multicellular strains and incidental virulence in the budding yeast

    Luke I Ekdahl, Juliana A Salcedo ... Helen A Murphy
    Yeast that were evolved to adhere to plastic surfaces for a few hundred generations became hyper-adherent and more virulent.

    Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor signaling maintains epithelial barrier integrity

    Nadja S Katheder, Kristen C Browder ... Heinrich Jasper
    Signaling through nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in enterocytes impacts barrier integrity in the Drosophila intestine by regulating formation of the peritrophic matrix.

    Unveiling the domain-specific and RAS isoform-specific details of BRAF kinase regulation

    Tarah Elizabeth Trebino, Borna Markusic ... Zhihong Wang
    An in-depth binding profile analysis of BRAF domains related to RAF activation and autoinhibition unveils the distinctive roles of each domain in selecting preferred RAS isoforms and facilitating autoinhibition.

    Efficient estimation for large-scale linkage disequilibrium patterns of the human genome

    Xin Huang, Tian-Neng Zhu ... Guo-Bo Chen
    Leveraging the X-LD method for estimating inter-chromosomal linkage disequilibrium in the human genome uncovers a universal extended LD pattern, consistent with observations in 1KG cohorts.

    Courtship behaviour reveals temporal regularity is a critical social cue in mouse communication

    Catherine Perrodin, Colombine Verzat, Daniel Bendor
    A behavioural paradigm demonstrates that during courtship song preference by female mice relies on the temporal regularity of the male's production of song syllables.

    Vertical transmission of maternal DNA through extracellular vesicles associates with altered embryo bioenergetics during the periconception period

    David Bolumar, Javier Moncayo-Arlandi ... Felipe Vilella
    In vitro analyses reveal how vertical DNA transmission from the mother to the pre-implantation embryo via endometrial extracellular vesicles can impact embryo bioenergetics.
