Disrupting left superior frontal sulcus selectively impaired perceptual but not value-based decisions, revealing segregated prefrontal circuits for integrating sensory evidence versus subjective preferences in human choice behaviour.
Facial emotion representations expand from sensory cortex to prefrontal regions across development, suggesting that the prefrontal cortex matures with development to enable a full understanding of facial emotion.
Profiling cell-specific immune responses reveals altered neutrophil function and enhanced T-cell mediated cell death following acute in vivo exposure to tobacco-flavored e-cigarette aerosol using single-cell technology.
Fluid flow analysis reveals that both swimming and sessile ciliates achieve competitive nutrient uptake, resolving the long-standing debate over the hydrodynamic advantage of either strategy.
Centralized migration accelerates adaptation and drives parallel evolution, emphasizing the key influence of spatial organization on evolutionary dynamics across systems from pathogen transmission to species range shifts.
The carboxyl-terminal alanine-threonine-tailed protein ATP5α helps glioblastoma mitochondria maintain a high membrane potential and keep the permeability transition pore closed, thereby promoting tumor growth and increasing resistance to apoptosis.
Intrinsic conformational flexibility of a solute transporter is restrained by substrates, resulting in Na+ allosterically enhancing primary substrate binding through cooperative constraints on the dynamics of the cytoplasmic inner barrier.

Post-2020, highly pathogenic avian influenza H5 circulation is characterised by spatially expanded ecological suitability, changes in key environmental predictors, and a wider range of avian species affected.
A novel F-actin-binding motif consisting of an α-helix hairpin from a Legionella pneumophila lysine fatty acyltransferase has the potential to be developed as an F-actin probe.
