Postural adjustments that reduce ankle leverage in kangaroos enhance tendon stress and elastic energy storage at higher speeds, providing energetic efficiency during hopping but potentially constraining the maximum size achievable by large species.
Combined with high-throughput yeast genetics, a split green fluorescent protein encoded directly in the mitochondrial DNA helps to identify targeting signals and functions of dually localized proteins.

Different locations of neurotransmitter release sites in axon-bearing and anaxonic olfactory bulb dopaminergic neurons allow self-inhibition only in anaxonic cells, showing how polarity differences create separate functional roles in sensory processing.
Distinct transcriptional subtypes in PPGLs link molecular programs with immune context, providing biomarkers for recurrence risk and therapeutic targeting.

Elevated gfDNA supports gastric cancer diagnosis and may guide management when combined with tissue biopsies, and in established cancer, higher gfDNA may predict better outcomes, potentially indicating immune-cell infiltration.
Pyruvate dictates redox balance and cell size, establishing metabolism as a dominant regulator of cellular fitness, unveiling new strategies to modulate cancer, regeneration, and diabetes.
