    Cystatin F (Cst7) drives sex-dependent changes in microglia in an amyloid-driven model of Alzheimer’s disease

    Michael JD Daniels, Lucas Lefevre ... Barry W McColl
    Cst7, a gene coding for protein cystatin F, is expressed by microglia in neurodegenerative disease models and mediates sex-dependent effects on microglial endolysosomal function and disease pathology.

    Phosphorylation bar-coding of free fatty acid receptor 2 is generated in a tissue-specific manner

    Natasja Barki, Laura Jenkins ... Graeme Milligan
    Differential agonist-induced phosphorylation of free fatty acid receptor 2 is shown in different tissues of transgenic mice engineered to express variant forms of the human ortholog of the receptor.

    Endosomal dysfunction contributes to cerebellar deficits in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6

    Anna A Cook, Tsz Chui Sophia Leung ... Alanna Jean Watt
    Changes in the intracellular trafficking of key signaling molecules in endosomes lead to pathophysiology in a rare disease affecting the cerebellum.

    Cervical cancer screening improvements with self-sampling during the COVID-19 pandemic

    Miriam Elfström, Penelope Grace Gray, Joakim Dillner
    Improved cervical cancer prevention through greatly increased population coverage by use of self-sampling and HPV screening during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    N-WASP-dependent branched actin polymerization attenuates B-cell receptor signaling by increasing the molecular density of receptor clusters

    Anshuman Bhanja, Margaret K Seeley-Fallen ... Wenxia Song
    B-cells generate inner actomyosin foci from lamellipodial actin networks to drive cell contraction on antigen-presenting surfaces, which causes signaling molecule disassociation from B-cell receptor clusters and signal attenuation.

    How hibernation in frogs drives brain and reproductive evolution in opposite directions

    Wenbo Liao, Ying Jiang ... Stefan Lüpold
    Rumation of anurans covaried negatively with brain size but positively with reproductive investment, likely in response to brumation-dependent changes in the socio-ecological context and associated selection on different tissues.

    Melanopsin activates divergent phototransduction pathways in intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell subtypes

    Ely Contreras, Jacob D Bhoi ... Tiffany M Schmidt
    Melanopsin phototransduction targets distinct complements of transduction channels across intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell subtypes and does not require hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated channels.

    Flexible coding of time or distance in hippocampal cells

    Shai Abramson, Benjamin J Kraus ... Genela Morris
    The hippocampus demonstrates flexible coding during memory encoding, prioritizing either distance or time information based on the specific requirements of the experiment.

    A neural network model of hippocampal contributions to category learning

    Jelena Sučević, Anna C Schapiro
    A neural network model of the hippocampus exhibits a division of labor across its two main pathways during category learning, with one pathway specializing in extracting systematic category information and another in encoding arbitrary details.
