The X-linked loci Firre and Dxz4 are involved in autosomal gene regulation rather than XCI biology.

Dopamine neurons function as an ensemble to signal a multidimensional feature prediction error.

Genetic and cell biological analyses reveal a new role of Drp1 in postsynaptic endocytosis during brain development beyond mitochondrial division GTPase.

Binding study of native adiponectin existing in serum supported the importance of T-cadherin but not AdipoRs nor calreticulin.

In scene-selective occipital cortex and within 200 ms of processing, visual inputs are sorted according to their typical spatial position within a scene.

Cryo-EM structures of unliganded SLC1A5 and its complex with glutamine in outward-facing state provide insights into the substrate specificity and transport mechanism and will be helpful for developing selective inhibitors.

MmuPV1, a papillomavirus that infects laboratory mice (Mus musculus), is discovered to be sexually transmitted, providing a new animal virus model to study sexually transmitted human papillomaviruses (HPVs).

Grid cells lose their hexagonality during hippocampal inactivation, but maintain temporal and spatial synchrony between pairs of cells, implying that hippocampus does not determine phase relations between grid cells.

The epidermis uses regulated spindle orientation to maintain robust homeostasis in response to perturbations in proliferation or differentiation.

The sensory nerves that carry sensations from the taste buds to the brain induce the formation of the taste buds in the embryo.
