Transcriptional responses to axonal damage are required for circuit repair, but these responses are restrained in injuries that leave spared axonal branches.

Preparatory attentional templates exist in two formats with distinct functional states, a default non-sensory format and a latent sensory-like format.

Routine genomic surveillance uncovered a decades-long multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa outbreak sustained by patient reservoirs and hospital plumbing, enabling targeted infection control measures that ultimately curtailed transmission.

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics allows signaling networks to signal downstream of certain ligands but avoid signaling from others.

Functional connectivity in rodent and human neuronal cultures is best explained by homophilic wiring rules, in which neurons preferentially form connections depending on spatial proximity and shared connectivity patterns, suggesting a unifying principle across scales.

In healthy volunteers, negative expectations exert stronger and longer-lasting effects on pain than positive expectations, consistent with a better-safe-than-sorry account of placebo and nocebo effects.

Intermolecular steric repulsion generated by glycans on the cell membrane inhibits viral infection by preventing the formation of a virus-cell interface, regardless of the identity of molecules for glycan modification.

Despite major perturbations from sequential interventions, the Plasmodium falciparum population remained very large and retained the var population genetic characteristics of a high-transmission system.

While the genes involved in craniofacial development are highly conserved between the fat-tailed dunnart and mouse, their cis-regulatory elements show significant divergence and appear to reflect species-specific developmental processes.

A genetic tracing study demonstrates that neural progenitor lineage dominance may not be maintained in differentiated progeny, underscoring the critical need for region-specific markers to validate pluripotent stem cell–derived products.
