CX3CR1-signaling in sensory ganglia macrophages mediates their proliferation/activation, as well as the production of pro-inflammatory mediators that contribute to neuropathic pain.

A theoretical model explains how protein density and nuclear to cell volume ratio are maintained during cell growth, discusses conditions under which this breaks down, and highlights the importance of metabolites, mainly amino acids such as glutamate, in this homeostasis.

The postinspiratory complex acts as an interface between the swallow pattern generator and the preBötzinger complex to coordinate swallow and breathing.

A pre-clinical model of E. coli pneumonia reveals attenuated dynamics of MHCII-expressing mononuclear cells in neonatal lung associated with elevated susceptibility to bacterial pneumonia.

Motor signs of Parkinson’s disease such as tremor and bradykinesia are independently expressed and exhibit distinct signatures of neural activity that can independently decoded from subthalamic and cortical recordings using interpretable machine learning.

Molecules in the condensed phase of biological condensates convert between transiently confined states and mobile states by forming dynamic percolated networks.

Belly roll, Bero, an Ly6/α-neurotoxin family protein, is identified as a critical modulator of peptidergic interneurons in Drosophila melanogaster, shedding light on genetic regulations of nociceptive escape behaviors and providing a potential target for future studies on pain perception.

Strongly protective effect conferred by the Dantu blood group variant against early, non-clinical, Plasmodium falciparum malaria infections in vivo.

Descending inhibition of nociception from the brain has been identified in Drosophila larvae, for the first time in non-mammalian organisms.

Consistent bimodal variations in the femoral morphology of various modern amniotes and a remarkably large herd of coeval fossil non-avian theropods evidences sexual dimorphism in dinosaurs.
