    Identification and characterization of early human photoreceptor states and cell-state-specific retinoblastoma-related features

    Dominic WH Shayler, Kevin Stachelek ... David Cobrinik
    Full-length single-cell RNA-sequencing provide insights into the earliest gene expression programs, the distinct mRNA transcript isoforms, and the retinoblastoma-related cell states associated with human cone and rod photoreceptor development.

    Simulation-based survey of TMEM16 family reveals that robust lipid scrambling requires an open groove

    Christina Alexandra Stephens, Niek van Hilten ... Michael Grabe
    The majority of TMEM16 lipid scrambling occurs in the open groove associated with Ca2+ activation, but limited scrambling also occurs in the dimer interface independent of Ca2+.

    Cytoneme-mediated intercellular signaling in keratinocytes is essential for epidermal remodeling in zebrafish

    Yi Wang, Thomas Nguyen ... Dae Seok Eom
    Keratinocyte cytonemes mediate essential Notch signaling for proper skin maintenance, with their disruption leading to abnormal differentiation and hyperproliferation resembling human skin disease phenotypes.

    Acute aerobic exercise intensity does not modulate pain potentially due to differences in fitness levels and sex effects: results from a pharmacological fMRI study

    Janne Ina Nold, Tahmine Fadai, Christian Büchel
    Exercise intensity alone does not differentially reduce pain, but individual factors like fitness level and sex, along with opioid mechanisms, may influence exercise-induced pain relief.

    Bridging verbal coordination and neural dynamics

    Isaïh Schwab-Mohamed, Manuel R Mercier ... Daniele Schön
    Fine-grained neural dynamics underlying speech coordination are revealed using a real-time interactive synchronous speech task that dissociates functional roles within the dorsal language pathway.

    The novel role of Kallistatin in linking metabolic syndromes and cognitive memory deterioration by inducing amyloid-β plaques accumulation and tau protein hyperphosphorylation

    Weiwei Qi, Yanlan Long ... Guoquan Gao
    Kallistatin acts as a key regulator in mediating Aβ accumulation and tau hyperphosphorylation in AD.

    Odors drive feeding through gustatory receptor neurons in Drosophila

    Hongping Wei, Thomas Ka Chung Lam, Hokto Kazama
    Odors directly activate taste neurons in Drosophila, revealing a peripheral mechanism of odor-taste integration that enhances feeding behavior.
    1. Chromosomes and Gene Expression

    Srs2 binding to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and its sumoylation contribute to replication protein A (RPA) antagonism during the DNA damage response

    Jiayi Fan, Nalini Dhingra ... Xiaolan Zhao
    Srs2 binding to PCNA and subsequent Mec1-dependent sumoylation regulate RPA-mediated checkpoint signaling.

    Interleukin-4 induces CD11c+ microglia leading to amelioration of neuropathic pain in mice

    Keita Kohno, Ryoji Shirasaka ... Makoto Tsuda
    Increasing CD11c+ microglial subsets in the spinal dorsal horn by intrathecal treatment of interleukin-4 alleviate pain hypersensitivity caused by nerve injury.

    Meteorins regulate the formation of the left-right organizer and the establishment of vertebrate body asymmetry

    Fanny Eggeler, Jonathan Boulanger-Weill ... Filippo Del Bene
    Genetic analyses in zebrafish reveal a new role for the Meteorin protein family in the left-right asymmetry patterning during embryonic vertebrate development.
