    TGF-β drives the conversion of conventional NK cells into uterine tissue-resident NK cells to support murine pregnancy

    Josselyn D Barahona, Liping Yang ... Wayne M Yokoyama
    Uterine natural killer (NK) cells require TGF-β to be derived from conventional NK cells and contribute to successful pregnancy.

    Autosomal allelic inactivation at loci with variable replication timing and dosage sensitivity

    Michael B Heskett, Athanasios E Vouzas ... Mathew J Thayer
    Stable allele-specific epigenetic regulation creates cellular mosaicism of numerous autosomal dosage-sensitive genes involved in human neurological and developmental disorders.

    Cribriform plate microenvironment assembles a suppressive myeloid network during EAE-induced neuroinflammation

    Collin Laaker, Martin Hsu ... Zsuzsanna Fabry
    Regulatory immune cells accumulate at the nose-to-brain interface during neuroinflammation, potentially dampening damaging immune responses.

    Visual working memory guides attention rhythmically in humans

    Jiachen Lu, Yaochun Cai, Xilin Zhang
    Working memory alternates between remembered items in a rhythmic theta cycle.

    Canonical and phosphoribosyl ubiquitination coordinate to stabilize a proteinaceous structure surrounding the Legionella-containing vacuole

    Adriana Steinbach, Chetan Mokkapati ... Shaeri Mukherjee
    Two families of ubiquitin ligases secreted by the intracellular pathogen Legionella pneumophila utilize distinct chemistries to form a stable, ubiquitin-rich structure around the vacuole, which is subsequently disassembled as infection progresses.

    Medial prefrontal cortex encodes but is not required to generate goal-directed actions under threat

    Muhammad S Sajid, Ji Zhou, Manuel A Castro-Alamancos
    Medial prefrontal cortex activity is not required for learning or execution of adaptive avoidance behavior, despite encoding select task features.

    Proteomic composition and mutual assembly of the C2a projection in vertebrate motile cilia

    Qian Lyu, Qingchao Li ... Huijie Zhao
    Deficiency in any of the interdependent C2a proteins (CCDC108, MYCBPAP, and CFAP70) collapses this central pair microtubule-associated projection, disrupting vertebrate ciliary movement, and causing primary ciliary dyskinesia phenotypes in mice.

    Ligand-dependent enhancer activation indirectly modulates non-target promoters in a chromatin domain

    Darshika Bohra, Zubairul Islam ... Dimple Notani
    Ligand-driven enhancer activation selectively boosts target gene expression while indirectly repressing neighboring non-target genes, revealing dynamic and competitive regulation during early transcriptional responses.

    Pervasive relaxed selection on spermatogenesis genes coincident with the evolution of polygyny in gorillas

    Jacob D Bowman, Neide Silva ... Vincent J Lynch
    Genes associated with male reproductive biology appear to be under relaxed selective constraint in a primate species with low sperm competition.

    Development of auditory and spontaneous movement responses to music over the first postnatal year

    Trinh Nguyen, Félix Bigand ... Giacomo Novembre
    Although auditory encoding of music is robust early in infancy, the transformation of this input into movement patterns develops substantially over the first postnatal year, without reaching full maturity.
