    Metformin abrogates pathological TNF-α-producing B cells through mTOR-dependent metabolic reprogramming in polycystic ovary syndrome

    Na Xiao, Jie Wang ... Lamei Cheng
    Pathological TNF-α-producing B cells are involved in the pathological process of polycystic ovary syndrome, and metformin inhibits mTOR phosphorylation, affects metabolic reprogramming, and further inhibits TNF-α expression in pathological B cells.

    Antibacterial potency of type VI amidase effector toxins is dependent on substrate topology and cellular context

    Atanas Radkov, Anne L Sapiro ... Seemay Chou
    Distinct surfaces of an interbacterial competition cell wall toxin mediate interactions with different cellular binding partners, resulting in an inherent evolutionary trade-off across the toxin superfamily.

    Cre/lox regulated conditional rescue and inactivation with zebrafish UFlip alleles generated by CRISPR-Cas9 targeted integration

    Fang Liu, Sekhar Kambakam ... Maura McGrail
    A novel strategy to create genetic mosaics in zebrafish for cell type-specific analysis of gene function that can be applied to any gene of interest.

    Intact Drosophila central nervous system cellular quantitation reveals sexual dimorphism

    Wei Jiao, Gard Spreemann ... Brian D McCabe
    Fewer neurons and more glia than previously predicted plus substantial differences between males and females are revealed when entire intact Drosophila larval central nervous systems are quantified using a synthesis of genetic, imaging, and computation technologies.

    Efferocytosis of SARS-CoV-2-infected dying cells impairs macrophage anti-inflammatory functions and clearance of apoptotic cells

    Ana CG Salina, Douglas dos-Santos ... Larissa D Cunha
    Internalization of apoptotic SARS-CoV-2 infected cells leads to proinflammatory macrophage activation and reduction in macrophage capacity to perform further efferocytosis.

    Morphogenetic forces planar polarize LGN/Pins in the embryonic head during Drosophila gastrulation

    Jaclyn Camuglia, Soline Chanet, Adam C Martin
    Morphogenetic forces from tissue invagination orient cell division through a previously undescribed mechanism of force-dependent LGN/Pins polarization.

    The influence of biological, epidemiological, and treatment factors on the establishment and spread of drug-resistant Plasmodium falciparum

    Thiery Masserey, Tamsin Lee ... Melissa A Penny
    Models of malaria and treatment dynamics were combined with emulator-based global sensitivity analysis to elucidate the interplay between drug, biology, and epidemiological factors on the evolution of resistance to malaria treatments, including artemisinin.

    Insights from full-text analyses of the Journal of the American Medical Association and the New England Journal of Medicine

    Moustafa Abdalla, Mohamed Abdalla ... Scott H Podolsky
    Historical analysis of nearly half-a-million articles from the Journal of the American Medical Association and the New England Journal of Medicine since their inception frames the shifting scientific, material, ethical, and epistemic underpinnings of medicine over time, including today.

    Sigma oscillations protect or reinstate motor memory depending on their temporal coordination with slow waves

    Judith Nicolas, Bradley R King ... Genevieve Albouy
    Sigma oscillations have a dual role in motor memory consolidation depending on their temporal coordination with slow waves during post-learning sleep.

    Cognitive experience alters cortical involvement in goal-directed navigation

    Charlotte Arlt, Roberto Barroso-Luque ... Christopher D Harvey
    The areas of the cerebral cortex that are necessary for mice to perform goal-directed navigation differ depending on previous experience in cognitively challenging tasks.
