    The contribution of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infections to transmission on the Diamond Princess cruise ship

    Jon C Emery, Timothy W Russell ... Rein MGJ Houben
    Nearly 75% of SARS-CoV-2 infections on the Diamond Princess were asymptomatic, half were never detected, and asymptomatic infections may have contributed substantially to transmission.

    Long ascending propriospinal neurons provide flexible, context-specific control of interlimb coordination

    Amanda M Pocratsky, Courtney T Shepard ... David SK Magnuson
    Conditional silencing of long ascending propriospinal neurons disrupts interlimb coordination of the fore and hindlimb pairs, but in a highly context-specific manner.

    Regulation of stem/progenitor cell maintenance by BMP5 in prostate homeostasis and cancer initiation

    Mathieu Tremblay, Sophie Viala ... Maxime Bouchard
    Gata3 loss in prostate basal stem/progenitor cells upregulates BMP5 which is necessary and sufficient to sustain full self-renewal potential and its inhibition significantly delays both prostate and skin tumor progression.

    Pattern regulation in a regenerating jellyfish

    Chiara Sinigaglia, Sophie Peron ... Lucas Leclère
    Clytia jellyfish regenerate body shape and organs through a mechanically driven process that coordinates tissue remodeling, localized proliferation, and precursor migration and promotes Wnt signaling at a muscle-based landmark.

    Lef1 expression in fibroblasts maintains developmental potential in adult skin to regenerate wounds

    Quan M Phan, Gracelyn M Fine ... Ryan R Driskell
    Adult wound repair can be rejuvenated to heal like young skin by activating neonatal transcription factors in fibroblasts.

    A circuit mechanism for decision-making biases and NMDA receptor hypofunction

    Sean Edward Cavanagh, Norman H Lam ... Steven Wayne Kennerley
    Ketamine, an NMDA receptor antagonist and experimental model for schizophrenia, produces decision-making deficits in monkeys, which are predicted by a lowering of cortical excitation-inhibition balance in a spiking circuit model.

    Feed-forward recruitment of electrical synapses enhances synchronous spiking in the mouse cerebellar cortex

    Andreas Hoehne, Maureen H McFadden, David A DiGregorio
    Transient recruitment of electrical synapses mediates precisely timed excitation and inhibition to enhance synchronized control of cerebellar cortical output.

    Genome expansion in early eukaryotes drove the transition from lateral gene transfer to meiotic sex

    Marco Colnaghi, Nick Lane, Andrew Pomiankowski
    Lateral gene transfer is unable to resist mutation accumulation in large genomes, leading to selective pressure for the origin of meiotic sex in the first eukaryotes.

    Endothelial TGF-β signaling instructs smooth muscle cell development in the cardiac outflow tract

    Giulia LM Boezio, Anabela Bensimon-Brito ... Didier YR Stainier
    Alk5/TGF-β signaling is required in the endothelium to orchestrate zebrafish cardiac outflow tract morphogenesis, regulating smooth muscle cell and extracellular matrix organization.

    Unexplained repeated pregnancy loss is associated with altered perceptual and brain responses to men’s body-odor

    Liron Rozenkrantz, Reut Weissgross ... Noam Sobel
    Women with unexplained miscarriages have an altered behavioral and brain response to men's body-odor, and this may reflect a factor in their condition.
