Research Articles published by eLife are full-length studies that present important breakthroughs across the life sciences and biomedicine. There is no maximum length and no limits on the number of display items.
Neurodegeneration driven by pathogenic aggregating proteins reorganizes the actin cytoskeleton, causing cellular stiffening and abolishing force generation required for endocytic events.
CCDC113 is a key structural hub for sperm axoneme and head-tail coupling apparatus (HTCA) stability, with defects leading to male infertility through disruption of sperm flagellar and HTCA integrity.

Ablation of olfactory projection neurons in adult mice triggers sprouting of the apical dendrite of remaining neurons towards multiple nearby glomeruli and disrupts the odor map.

During Drosophila primordial germ cells (PGCs) specification, the centrosome and germplasm are subject to regulation, during the maternal zygotic transition, by Caspar/TER94-dependent degradative pathways that influence PGC determinants.
Developmental specialization of vomeronasal sensory neurons involves selective upregulation of endoplasmic reticulum genes in a subset of neurons along with a hypertrophic gyroid membrane architecture.
The naturally occurring biologics, FLO and HC-HA/PTX3, derived from human birth tissues, may be developed as a much-needed non-opioid therapy for post-surgical pain treatment, leveraging robust neuronal mechanisms.

Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) and polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) control endothelial gene expression for BBB development and prevented Wnt/β-catenin target genes from being expressed in adult CNS ECs.
Kiss1ARH neurons transition from synchronous to burst firing under preovulatory levels of E2, causing a shift from peptidergic to glutamatergic transmission that drives the GnRH surge through enhanced glutamate neurotransmission.
