Drosophila model reveals that NTE/SWS-associated neurodegeneration is a lysosomal storage disorder accompanied by a leaky brain permeability barrier, abnormal fatty acid metabolism, and inflammation.
In a stress-specific manner, Mycobacterium tuberculosis PhoP regulates Rv0805 phosphodiesterase expression to control cAMP level and contributes to intracellular survival of the bacilli.
A virtual balancing task with parallel experiments on human and non-human primates revealed a spectrum of behaviors (classified by a computational model into position, velocity, or mixed control strategy) that can serve as basis for analyzing neural population dynamics.

Bacterial Type IV restriction-modification systems display remarkable, previously unnoticed diversity of complex gene and domain architectures, and are predicted to couple antiphage immunity with the abortive infection form of defense.
Overexpression of inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase contributes to the process of tumorigenesis by amplifying translation, represents a promising target for anti-cancer therapies.
Equivalence testing and Bayes factors are informative statistical methods for analyzing replication studies of original studies with null results, and can address the limitations of the commonly used non-significance criterion.

Targeted manipulations on organotypic cultures show that the retina switches between at least four different metabolic pathways, each with different yields and kinetics, to dynamically adapt to momentaneous energy needs.

Live imaging of the Notch co-activator Mastermind reveals that it promotes the formation of a dynamic transcription hub in Notch ON nuclei, conferring probabilistic transcription and providing a template for signal memory.

The identification of 31 neuropeptide GPCRs in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis provides a rich resource to study peptidergic signaling in cnidarians and suggests that cnidarian and bilaterian peptidergic systems diversified independent from each other from a few ancestral systems.
