    The Drosophila ZAD zinc finger protein Kipferl guides Rhino to piRNA clusters

    Lisa Baumgartner, Dominik Handler ... Julius Brennecke
    Kipferl, a ZAD zinc finger protein from Drosophila, determines the chromatin binding specificity of the heterochromatin protein variant Rhino, defining piRNA clusters and preventing Rhino sequestration by selfish Satellite repeats.

    Parahippocampal neurons encode task-relevant information for goal-directed navigation

    Alexander Gonzalez, Lisa M Giocomo
    Parahippocampal neurons increase their activity rates following navigational errors, and the error signal magnitude is related with overall task performance.

    Altered firing output of VIP interneurons and early dysfunctions in CA1 hippocampal circuits in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease

    Felix Michaud, Ruggiero Francavilla ... Lisa Topolnik
    Early alterations in VIP interneuron activity may contribute to disruptions in CA1 hippocampal circuits and cognitive deficits in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.

    The chemorepellent, SLIT2, bolsters innate immunity against Staphylococcus aureus

    Vikrant K Bhosle, Chunxiang Sun ... Lisa A Robinson
    SLIT2, a prototypic neuro-repellent, spatiotemporally coordinates host defense against Staphylococcus aureus infection by priming neutrophils and stimulating release of reactive oxygen species and secondary and tertiary granules, potently enhancing bactericidal actions of neutrophils.

    Myoglobin-derived iron causes wound enlargement and impaired regeneration in pressure injuries of muscle

    Nurul Jannah Mohamed Nasir, Hans Heemskerk ... Lisa Tucker-Kellogg
    Myoglobin iron contributes to the formation and poor healing of muscle pressure injuries, that is, bedsores, and iron-chelation therapy can be administered after prolonged pressure to increase survival of the damaged tissue.

    Chronic lithium treatment elicits its antimanic effects via BDNF-TrkB dependent synaptic downscaling

    Erinn S Gideons, Pei-Yi Lin ... Lisa M Monteggia
    The antimanic action of lithium requires BDNF-TrkB signaling coupled with enhanced dynamin-dependent endocytosis of AMPARs as a potential mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects.

    Unstructured regions in IRE1α specify BiP-mediated destabilisation of the luminal domain dimer and repression of the UPR

    Niko Amin-Wetzel, Lisa Neidhardt ... David Ron
    Client protein-driven reversal of endoplasmic reticulum chaperone (BiP) mediated-repression is revealed as a principal component of the regulation of the unfolded protein response transducer IRE1 in cells.

    Highly parallelized droplet cultivation and prioritization of antibiotic producers from natural microbial communities

    Lisa Mahler, Sarah P Niehs ... Miriam A Rosenbaum
    This microscale cultivation strategy will help in the discovery of novel bacterial species and their prioritization for antibiotic screening campaigns.

    A Gata3–Mafb transcriptional network directs post-synaptic differentiation in synapses specialized for hearing

    Wei-Ming Yu, Jessica M Appler ... Lisa V Goodrich
    Genetic studies in mice identify the transcription factor MafB as a potent regulator of specific features of the synapses underlying hearing.

    Increased cortical plasticity leads to memory interference and enhanced hippocampal-cortical interactions

    Irene Navarro Lobato, Adrian Aleman-Zapata ... Lisa Genzel
    Increasing cortical plasticity leads to better one-trial memory but more interference effects on semantic-like memory.
