    Birds land reliably on complex surfaces by adapting their foot-surface interactions upon contact

    William RT Roderick, Diana D Chin ... David Lentink
    When landing, Pacific parrotlets exhibit stereotyped leg and wing dynamics regardless of perch diameter and texture, but foot and claw kinematics become surface-specific upon touchdown to successfully grasp the perch.

    An armoured marine reptile from the Early Triassic of South China and its phylogenetic and evolutionary implications

    Andrzej S Wolniewicz, Yuefeng Shen ... Jun Liu
    A new fossil sheds light on the evolution of an aquatic lifestyle in extinct reptiles and supports a close phylogenetic relationship between archosaurs (crocodiles, dinosaurs, birds, and kin) and turtles.

    Cohesin mutations are synthetic lethal with stimulation of WNT signaling

    Chue Vin Chin, Jisha Antony ... Julia A Horsfield
    Hypersensitivity of cohesin-deficient cells to Wnt signaling is concomitant with beta catenin stabilization and offers promise that Wnt agonists could be therapeutically effective in cohesin mutant cancers.

    Predictors of human-infective RNA virus discovery in the United States, China, and Africa, an ecological study

    Feifei Zhang, Margo Chase-Topping ... Mark EJ Woolhouse
    In three different regions including the United States, China, and Africa, virus discoveries were strongly associated with GDP and land use, but were less likely to be associated with climate and biodiversity variables than at a global scale.

    Epigenome-wide analysis of DNA methylation and coronary heart disease: a nested case-control study

    Jiahui Si, Songchun Yang ... China Kadoorie Biobank Collaborative Group
    Epigenetic regulations in the smoking- and blood pressure-related pathways to the future risk of coronary heart disease may reveal novel pathways or therapeutic targets.

    An unexpected noncarpellate epigynous flower from the Jurassic of China

    Qiang Fu, Jose Bienvenido Diez ... Xin Wang
    Flowers did bloom in the Early Jurassic.

    ERK8 is a negative regulator of O-GalNAc glycosylation and cell migration

    Joanne Chia, Keit Min Tham ... Frederic A Bard
    The ERK8 kinase blocks the export of glycosyl-tranferases from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum, and thus subsequent O-glycosylation of proteins that otherwise enhance cell motility and tissue invasion.

    Cortical excitability signatures for the degree of sleepiness in human

    Chin-Hsuan Chia, Xin-Wei Tang ... Rui-Ping Hu
    Patterns of cortical excitability changes reflect the degree of sleepiness in humans.

    Long-range migration of centrioles to the apical surface of the olfactory epithelium

    Kaitlin Ching, Jennifer T Wang, Tim Stearns
    Olfactory sensory neurons have centrioles that are amplified in number and that migrate from the cell body to the end of the dendrite relatively slowly and in groups, becoming mature only after they reach their destination.

    Evaluation of antibody kinetics and durability in healthy individuals vaccinated with inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (CoronaVac): A cross-sectional and cohort study in Zhejiang, China

    Hangjie Zhang, Qianhui Hua ... Huakun Lv
    Serum antibodies induced by CoronaVac tended to decrease over time, even though vaccinated with the homologous booster dose, and Delta and Omicron variants may be able to more efficiently evade the antibodies with time.
