    Neural evidence of functional compensation for fluid intelligence in healthy ageing

    Ethan Knights, Richard N Henson ... Kamen A Tsvetanov
    Older people can recruit additional brain regions to help perform complex tasks, possibly compensating for age-related changes in other parts of the brain.

    Yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) genome provides new insights into convergent evolution of caffeine biosynthesis

    Federico A Vignale, Andrea Hernandez Garcia ... Adrian G Turjanski
    DNA sequencing of the yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) genome reveals convergent genomic changes, biochemical pathways, mutations, and substrate-binding orientations responsible for caffeine biosynthesis when compared to coffee and tea plants.

    Psychological stress disturbs bone metabolism via miR-335-3p/Fos signaling in osteoclast

    Jiayao Zhang, Juan Li ... Weicai Liu
    miR-335-3p, which targets FOS and inhibits its activation of NFATC1 signaling, is an important regulator for osteoclast function and responsible for the psychological stress-induced osteoporosis.

    Complement 3a receptor 1 on macrophages and Kupffer cells is not required for the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease

    Edwin A Homan, Ankit Gilani ... James C Lo
    Ablation of the G-protein-coupled receptor C3aR1 specifically on macrophages or Kupffer cells does not alter the course of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in a dietary mouse model.

    High-throughput tracking enables systematic phenotyping and drug repurposing in C. elegans disease models

    Thomas J O'Brien, Ida L Barlow ... André EX Brown
    High-throughput animal tracking and quantitative behaviour analysis detects diverse phenotypes in genetic disease models at a scale that makes drug screens possible.

    Complexes of vertebrate TMC1/2 and CIB2/3 proteins form hair-cell mechanotransduction cation channels

    Arnaud PJ Giese, Wei-Hsiang Weng ... Zubair M Ahmed
    Complexes formed by calcium- and integrin-binding proteins 2 and 3 and transmembrane channel-like proteins 1 and 2 are essential for vertebrate hearing and balance and for fish lateral line function.

    Interneuron FGF13 regulates seizure susceptibility via a sodium channel-independent mechanism

    Susan Lin, Aravind R Gade ... Geoffrey S Pitt
    Variants in FGF13, associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies, alter neuronal excitability by affecting inhibitory neurons and by a sodium channel-independent mechanism.

    Wavenumber-dependent transmission of subthreshold waves on electrical synapses network model of Caenorhabditis elegans

    Iksoo Chang, Taegon Chung, Sangyeol Kim
    The composition of nodes that effectively transmit sinusoidal waves in a model network resembling C. elegans' electrical synapses network changes according to the waves' wavenumber.
