    Ketogenic diet restrains aging-induced exacerbation of coronavirus infection in mice

    Seungjin Ryu, Irina Shchukina ... Vishwa Deep Dixit
    Ketogenic diet protects against coronavirus-infected aged mice, which, like humans, are significantly more susceptible to infections, by deactivating NLRP3 inflammasome, reducing pathogenic monotypes, and expanding γδ T cells in the lung.

    The linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) generates heterotypic ubiquitin chains

    Alan Rodriguez Carvajal, Irina Grishkovskaya ... Fumiyo Ikeda
    The E3 ubiquitin ligase complex linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) forms a branched chain on linear ubiquitin chains depending on the RING-in-between-RING-type E3 ligase heme-oxidized IRP2 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HOIL-1L).

    The cryptic gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuronal system of human basal ganglia

    Katalin Skrapits, Miklós Sárvári ... Erik Hrabovszky
    Neuroanatomical studies reveal presence and cholinergic phenotype of 150,000-200,000 extrahypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons in human basal ganglia and basal forebrain, and RNA-sequencing detects gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor-1 expression in cholinergic interneurons but not in spiny projection neurons of the human putamen.

    Apical PAR complex proteins protect against programmed epithelial assaults to create a continuous and functional intestinal lumen

    Maria Danielle Sallee, Melissa A Pickett, Jessica L Feldman
    During intestinal development, apical PAR complex proteins keep apical domains and junctions continuous between cells as they divide and elongate, and ultimately build a continuous functional tube.

    The Ca2+-activated cation channel TRPM4 is a positive regulator of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy

    Yang Guo, Ze-Yan Yu ... Boris Martinac
    The TRPM4 ion channel has been identified as an important component in the causation of mechanical pressure overload-induced pathological left ventricular hypertrophy, which is a powerful predictor of cardiovascular mortality.

    Neural dynamics of semantic categorization in semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia

    V Borghesani, CL Dale ... SS Nagarajan
    Following anterior temporal lobe neurodegeneration, defective semantic representations are compensated via enhanced perceptual processing and associated with a dysregulation of the semantic control system.

    Developing a multivariate prediction model of antibody features associated with protection of malaria-infected pregnant women from placental malaria

    Elizabeth H Aitken, Timon Damelang ... Stephen J Rogerson
    Machine learning identified six protective antibody features and showed for the first time that serological markers can predict protection from placental-malaria, which is important for evaluation and development of vaccines.

    The temporal representation of experience in subjective mood

    Hanna Keren, Charles Zheng ... Argyris Stringaris
    While current theories assume that mood is dominated by most recent experiences, computational modeling shows that mood is shaped by first experiences that carry a long-lasting overarching influence on mood.

    Major genetic discontinuity and novel toxigenic species in Clostridioides difficile taxonomy

    Daniel R Knight, Korakrit Imwattana ... Thomas V Riley
    The Clostridioides difficile taxonomy is characterised by major taxonomic incoherence and clear species boundaries.

    5'-UTR SNP of FGF13 causes translational defect and intellectual disability

    Xingyu Pan, Jingrong Zhao ... Xu Zhang
    A 5'-UTR SNP of FGF13 impairs PTBP2 interacting with FGF13 mRNA, leading to reduced FGF13 translation and deficits in brain development and cognitive functions.
