Mesoscopic properties of motor-microtubule assemblies, such as contractile rates and length scales, can be quantitatively connected to single-motor properties of kinesin motors.

The information stored in glycans is interpreted and read by cell surface-exposed lectin receptors, and with information theory, the formal framework is set for how to analyze such complex single-cell data.

Vigorous endurance training results in prolongation of cardiac repolarization and increased repolarization instability, mild ventricular fibrosis associated with decrease of the transient outward potassium current, and enhanced arrhythmia susceptibility in canine model.

In cortical pyramidal neurons, subtype-specific SUMOylation of Na+ channels regulates input-output relationships, synaptic boosting, and action potential propagation from the axonal trigger zone back into the dendrites.

A novel neural mechanism is proposed and validated in larval zebrafish to explain how animals habituate to repeated looming stimulation.

Behavioural, molecular, and functional analyses revealed that fever contributes to induction and resolution phases of acute inflammation, through enhancement of antimicrobial defences, increased efficiency in inflammation control, and improved wound repair.

For the first time, the strength of homeostatic plasticity has been shown to be negatively regulated and the transcription factors responsible for this regulation have been identified.

Combining live imaging and advanced electron microscopy gives insights into the structural integrity of the nematode epidermis and its intimate connection with the extracellular matrix.

Promotion of microtubule pausing by a kinetochore module controls meiotic spindle assembly in Caenorhabditis elegans oocytes.
