    MEIS-mediated suppression of human prostate cancer growth and metastasis through HOXB13-dependent regulation of proteoglycans

    Calvin VanOpstall, Srikanth Perike ... Donald J Vander Griend
    The HOXB13 binding partner MEIS1 suppresses prostate cancer proliferation, invasion, and metastasis by promoting expression of the anti-oncogenic extracellular proteoglycan Decorin.

    Aromatic interactions with membrane modulate human BK channel activation

    Mahdieh Yazdani, Guohui Zhang ... Jianhan Chen
    Computation and experiment together demonstrate that nonspecific membrane–protein interactions could regulate transmembrane protein function and suggest that covalent linkers can be an integral component of the sensing apparatus.

    IL18 signaling promotes homing of mature Tregs into the thymus

    Cristina Peligero-Cruz, Tal Givony ... Jakub Abramson
    IL18R+ Tregs constitute a mature thymus-resident population, resistant to thymus involution and endowed with higher capacity to populate the thymus compared to their IL18R– or IL18R deficient counterparts.

    Persistent firing in LEC III neurons is differentially modulated by learning and aging

    Carmen Lin, Venus N Sherathiya ... John F Disterhoft
    Temporal associative learning enhances persistent firing in lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) layer III neurons, while aging decreases persistent firing, leading to cognitive impairments.

    Neural dynamics of perceptual inference and its reversal during imagery

    Nadine Dijkstra, Luca Ambrogioni ... Marcel van Gerven
    Perceptual feedforward information flow is reversed during mental imagery and later stages of perception.

    Earliest infections predict the age distribution of seasonal influenza A cases

    Philip Arevalo, Huong Q McLean ... Sarah Cobey
    First influenza infections determine susceptibility to future seasonal influenza infection throughout life, and may impact vaccine effectiveness.

    Reconstitution reveals two paths of force transmission through the kinetochore

    Grace E Hamilton, Luke A Helgeson ... Trisha N Davis
    Two components of the inner kinetochore (OA and Mif2) are independently capable of transmitting physiologically relevant forces to a centromeric nucleosome.

    Mechanical inhibition of isolated Vo from V/A-ATPase for proton conductance

    Jun-ichi Kishikawa, Atsuko Nakanishi ... Ken Yokoyama
    Cryo-EM structures of rotary V-ATPase reveal the ON-OFF switching mechanism of H+ translocation in the Vo membrane domain.

    Structure of MlaFB uncovers novel mechanisms of ABC transporter regulation

    Ljuvica R Kolich, Ya-Ting Chang ... Damian C Ekiert
    Structure of MlaFB reveals how a small binding protein and the C-terminal tail on an ATPase subunit work together to regulate the assembly and function of an ABC transporter.

    A decentralised neural model explaining optimal integration of navigational strategies in insects

    Xuelong Sun, Shigang Yue, Michael Mangan
    The first biology-constrained neural model of insect navigation guidance systems was explained including path integration, visual homing and route following, and their optimal coordination.
