Extensive field studies in poison frogs reveal that sex and species differences in parental behavior drive differences in space use patterns but not navigational performance and highlight the interplay between androgen levels and poison frog spatial behavior.
Patients exposed to ⍺1-AR antagonists have reduced risks of mechanical ventilation and death in lower respiratory tract infection-related illnesses, highlighting the need for prospective trials assessing ⍺1-AR antagonists' effectiveness in COVID-19.
IFNγ increases the responsiveness of human B cells to IL-2, TLR7/8 and IL-21 signals and therefore enhances antibody production in inflammatory settings associated with autoimmune or chronic disease.

HUWE1 indirectly mediates the return to cellular homeostasis after pro-inflammatory responses, which it does by controling the stability of the immune suppressor tristetraprolin.

Diversification of a conserved cholesterol binder drives functional replacement of cholesterol with symbiont-produced sterols in corals living in nutrient-poor environments.
Strong reduction in malaria transmission by genetically modified mosquitoes is achieved in the laboratory using a dual gene drive that simultaneously propagates an antiparasitic factor and a parasite-detrimental mosquito mutation.
Analysis of a variant without lysine in the intracellular domain reveals a ubiquitylation-independent signalling activity of the DSL ligand Delta and novel functions of the Neuralized and Mindbomb1 E3-ligases during Notch signalling.
