Finch embryos are laid at an earlier stage than other avian embryos and contain cells with similar properties to pluripotent embryonic stem cells from mice.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, cancer-related screening and healthcare practices varied (by age, race/ethnicity, education, and comorbidities), and considering these differences in high-risk individuals' monitoring is important as undiagnosed cases or poor prognosis may increase due to delayed screening/treatment.

A competition for RNA drives the localized assembly of RNA granules in the C. elegans embryo.

Cells in tendon sheaths, considered to be extrinsic tissues of tendon, possess stem or progenitor cell properties that are involved in tendon repair by activating the Hh-TGFb/Smad3 axis.

Biophysical and structural studies reveal how low piconewton forces across actin enhance binding by the critical cell-cell adhesion protein α-catenin versus its force insensitive homolog vinculin.

The mutational flexibility of the antimalarial target dihydroorotate dehydrogenase thwarts the use of collateral sensitivity as a strategy to suppress the evolution of resistance.

Asparagine 88 to lysine (N88K), a prevalent congenital myasthenic syndrome mutation of Rapsyn, impairs the neuromuscular junction by disrupting agrin signaling.

Calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum through the IP₃ receptor ion channel is strongly regulated by a calcium-binding protein in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.

Under metabolic syndrome, joint subchondral preosteoclasts acquire a senescence-associated secretome, which causes a rapid structural alteration of subchondral bone and contributes to the development of osteoarthritis.

A new optical approach reveals dynamics of ground reaction forces in Drosophila larvae and opens new avenues for studying the biomechanics of movement in small animals.
