    GSK3 inhibition rescues growth and telomere dysfunction in dyskeratosis congenita iPSC-derived type II alveolar epithelial cells

    Rafael Jesus Fernandez, Zachary JG Gardner ... F Brad Johnson
    Telomere dysfunction in iPSC-derived type II alveolar epithelial cells causes senescence and gene expression changes including Wnt-related changes that GSK3 inhibition can rescue, providing insight into pulmonary fibrosis pathogenesis.

    Spontaneous neuronal oscillations in the human insula are hierarchically organized traveling waves

    Anup Das, John Myers ... Sameer A Sheth
    Human intracranial electroencephalographic recordings reveal the electrophysiological properties and hierarchical organization of spontaneous neuronal oscillations in the human insula and show that these oscillations are traveling waves, thus providing new insights into intrainsular and interinsular communication.

    Inhibitory control of frontal metastability sets the temporal signature of cognition

    Vincent Fontanier, Matthieu Sarazin ... Emmanuel Procyk
    Single unit recordings in monkeys and biophysical modelling demonstrate that local inhibitory-controlled metastable neural states specify the temporal organization of cognitive functions in frontal areas.

    Semantic relatedness retroactively boosts memory and promotes memory interdependence across episodes

    James W Antony, America Romero ... Kelly A Bennion
    The more semantically related a later experience is to an earlier one (along multiple dimensions), the more likely humans are to think back to and strengthen the memory of the earlier experience and mentally link the two experiences.

    The metabolome of Mexican cavefish shows a convergent signature highlighting sugar, antioxidant, and Ageing-Related metabolites

    J Kyle Medley, Jenna Persons ... Nicolas Rohner
    Metabolomics data reveals unique metabolic insights into how cavefish adapt to nutrient limited environments while staying healthy.

    Motor cortex activity across movement speeds is predicted by network-level strategies for generating muscle activity

    Shreya Saxena, Abigail A Russo ... Mark M Churchland
    While performing learned movements at different speeds, motor cortex population activity can be understood based on the need to generate muscle activity via smooth, well-behaved dynamics.

    Distinctive mechanisms of epilepsy-causing mutants discovered by measuring S4 movement in KCNQ2 channels

    Michaela A Edmond, Andy Hinojo-Perez ... Rene Barro-Soria
    Because voltage-gated KCNQ2 channels are central to physiological and pathophysiological events, understanding how disease-causing mutations in different channel regions disrupt function will help future development of mutation-specific antiepileptic therapies.

    Hyperreactivity to uncertainty is a key feature of subjective cognitive impairment

    Bahaaeddin Attaallah, Pierre Petitet ... Masud Husain
    Analysis of performance on a novel behavioural paradigm investigating active information gathering reveals that subjective cognitive impairment is associated with hyperreactivity to uncertainty and links this mechanism to the affective burden in the condition and heightened insular-hippocampal connectivity.

    Intrinsic excitability mechanisms of neuronal ensemble formation

    Tzitzitlini Alejandre-García, Samuel Kim ... Rafael Yuste
    Optogenetic and electrical stimulation of primary visual cortex neurons reveals synaptic and cell-intrinsic mechanisms that underlie neuronal ensemble formation.

    Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4,6 sulfation regulates sympathetic nerve regeneration after myocardial infarction

    Matthew R Blake, Diana C Parrish ... Beth A Habecker
    4,6-Sulfation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans prevents sympathetic nerve regeneration into the infarct after myocardial ischemia/reperfusion, and reducing this sulfation promotes nerve regeneration and decreases arrhythmia susceptibility.
