Using RNAscope mapping provides the comprehensive, sex-specific atlas of vasopressin and its receptor gene expression across the murine brain, refining understanding of how vasopressin signaling is anatomically organized to regulate social behavior, stress responsivity, and homeostasis.

Self-related information automatically modulates early attentional selection into awareness through mechanisms distinct from physical salience, revealing an obligatory, individualized self-prioritization at the gateway to perception.

Evidence is provided suggesting that aggregate neural activity at an early stage of visual processing (V1) can directly contribute to perceptual decisions in humans.

Compared with human-specific transcriptional factors, human-specific lncRNAs identified upon human lncRNAs’ orthologs in mammals have greatly evolved DNA-binding sites in archaic and modern humans in genes determining human traits.

Complementary biochemical and structural findings reveal molecular principles underlying substrate selectivity by a model hyaluronan synthase.

Beta and gamma inhibitory rhythms are preferentially tuned to govern synaptic integration in layer 5 pyramidal neurons by differentially modulating responses to inputs targeting distal dendritic and perisomatic compartments.

Multiple competing hypotheses concerning the cholesterol accessibility of oncoprotein Smoothened are quantitatively assessed and experimentally validated, showing that cholesterol takes two pathways from either membrane leaflet to the binding sites.

Single-cell transcriptomics data from mouse bone-relevant cells was used to inform human bone mineral density genome-wide association studies and prioritize genetic targets with potential causal roles in the development of osteoporosis.

Mammalian oocytes utilize a conserved combination of cell cycle control, cytoskeletal organization, and polarity pathways that are fundamentally shared with other vertebrates and invertebrates.

Y-complex nucleoporin, Nup107, can regulate ecdysone production by affecting the transcription of Halloween genes and levels of RTK receptor, torso, for the metamorphic transition from larva to pupa.
