Analyses reveal that multiple NTS neuron types act cumulatively in the suppression of feeding, that the abrogation of food intake by multiple non-aversive populations fails to promote aversive responses, and that there exist additional NTS populations that modulate food intake.

Cancer stem cells that have undergone EMT are identified in the region surrounding metastatic human oral tumours in a retrospective cohort study, and these are predictive of metastatic outcome in an image-based machine learning approach.

Analysis of the osteochondral unit of aquatic mammals reveals a distinctly different tissue structure, lacking the arcade-like collagen fiber organization, a calcified cartilage layer and a dense subchondral bone plate, typically seen in osteochondral tissue of terrestrial mammals.

Noradrenergic receptors can control the spontaneous electrical firing of neurons by inhibiting a Na⁺ channel known as NALCN using a pathway shared by metabotropic GABA receptors.

Silencing long-descending propriospinal neurons that connect C6 to L2 disrupts right-left alternation of both the forelimbs and hindlimbs in the intact animal, but leads to improved stepping after a mild-moderate thoracic contusion spinal cord injury.

Social hierarchies resulting from the European colonization of the Americas stratified the population structure, leading to ancestry-related assortative mating and sex bias patterns that can be inferred from the genomes of the populations across the continent.
