    Host genetic selection for cold tolerance shapes microbiome composition and modulates its response to temperature

    Fotini Kokou, Goor Sasson ... Itzhak Mizrahi
    Microbiome and transcriptomic profiling of genetically selected tropical fish with high and low tolerance to cold exposure revealed host control over microbiome composition and response to temperature changes.

    Global transcriptional analysis identifies a novel role for SOX4 in tumor-induced angiogenesis

    Stephin J Vervoort, Olivier G de Jong ... Paul J Coffer
    Global transcriptome analysis reveals that the transcription factor SOX4 can promote breast tumor development via tumor angiogenesis by promoting paracrine signalling through endothelin-1.

    Rejection of immunogenic tumor clones is limited by clonal fraction

    Ron S Gejman, Aaron Y Chang ... David A Scheinberg
    A new, high-throughput in vivo MHC-I peptide minigene library platform shows that the naive immune system cannot eliminate cells presenting immunogenic antigens found at low frequencies within a growing tumor.

    A novel enhancer near the Pitx1 gene influences development and evolution of pelvic appendages in vertebrates

    Abbey C Thompson, Terence D Capellini ... David M Kingsley
    Regulatory sequences downstream of a key limb identity gene are required for normal sizes of leg bones, and are changed in wild species with dramatic alterations in pelvic structures.

    A time-stamp mechanism may provide temporal information necessary for egocentric to allocentric spatial transformations

    Avner Wallach, Erik Harvey-Girard ... Len Maler
    A novel neural mechanism for precise, unbiased estimation of time intervals in the thalamus of electric fish is likely used for computing distance between object encounters.

    Sensorimotor pathway controlling stopping behavior during chemotaxis in the Drosophila melanogaster larva

    Ibrahim Tastekin, Avinash Khandelwal ... Matthieu Louis
    The reconstruction of a sensorimotor pathway from the olfactory-sensory neurons down to the pre-motor system reveals a descending neuron that plays a critical role in the organization of larval chemotaxis.

    Reversal of ApoE4-induced recycling block as a novel prevention approach for Alzheimer’s disease

    Xunde Xian, Theresa Pohlkamp ... Joachim Herz
    Lowering endosomal pH through inhibition of sodium-hydrogen exchanger 6 corrects the ApoE4-induced Reelin resistance and restores neuronal glutamate receptor trafficking.

    Rat behavior and dopamine release are modulated by conspecific distress

    Nina T Lichtenberg, Brian Lee ... Matthew R Roesch
    Rat behavior and dopamine release are preferentially modulated by subjective rather than objective evaluation of outcomes in a social setting.

    A kinematic synergy for terrestrial locomotion shared by mammals and birds

    Giovanna Catavitello, Yury Ivanenko, Francesco Lacquaniti
    General principles of the limb segment control for terrestrial locomotion have emerged in evolution and highlight the existence of the laws of biological motion that apply to various animal species.
