    Assessing the danger of self-sustained HIV epidemics in heterosexuals by population based phylogenetic cluster analysis

    Teja Turk, Nadine Bachmann ... Swiss HIV Cohort Study
    A method to assess the risk of self-sustained HIV transmission in heterosexuals from phylogenetic and epidemiological data is developed and, when applied to the Swiss HIV epidemic, shows that this risk is negligibly small for Switzerland.

    Regenerative neurogenic response from glia requires insulin-driven neuron-glia communication

    Neale J Harrison, Elizabeth Connolly ... Alicia Hidalgo
    Neuronal Ia-2 and glial Kon coordinate an injury-response insulin relay that restores glial cell populations and induces neural stem cells from glia, enabling central nervous system regeneration.

    Dynamic localization of the chromosomal passenger complex in trypanosomes is controlled by the orphan kinesins KIN-A and KIN-B

    Daniel Ballmer, Bungo Akiyoshi
    The kinetoplastid parasite Trypanosoma brucei employs a unique mechanism to target the conserved Aurora B kinase to kinetochores and the central spindle.

    Conserved biophysical compatibility among the highly variable germline-encoded regions shapes TCR-MHC interactions

    Christopher T Boughter, Martin Meier-Schellersheim
    A comprehensive computational study of germline-encoded T cell receptor CDR loops and MHC alpha-helices finds limited evidence for evolutionary conserved interactions, and instead suggests broad biophysical compatibility guides the interactions between the two proteins.

    Dopaminergic and opioidergic regulation during anticipation and consumption of social and nonsocial rewards

    Sebastian Korb, Sebastian J Götzendorfer ... Giorgia Silani
    Administration of dopamine and opioid receptor antagonists resulted in reduced reward anticipation (effort and increased negative facial reactions), but only administration of opioid antagonists resulted in reduced liking (facial reactions).

    Prosurvival long noncoding RNA PINCR regulates a subset of p53 targets in human colorectal cancer cells by binding to Matrin 3

    Ritu Chaudhary, Berkley Gryder ... Ashish Lal
    Functional and mechanistic analysis of p53-regulated lncRNA PINCR and its interacting RNA-binding protein Matrin 3 uncovers context-dependent regulation of specific p53 target genes during DNA damage.

    Coevolutionary dynamics via adaptive feedback in collective-risk social dilemma game

    Linjie Liu, Xiaojie Chen, Attila Szolnoki
    The two-way coupling between collective actions and risk is essential to avoid the tragedy of the commons.

    A quantitative theory of gamma synchronization in macaque V1

    Eric Lowet, Mark J Roberts ... Peter De Weerd
    Gamma-band synchronization behavior in area V1 was predicted by weakly coupled oscillator principles.

    Cell volume changes contribute to epithelial morphogenesis in zebrafish Kupffer’s vesicle

    Agnik Dasgupta, Matthias Merkel ... Jeffrey D Amack
    During Kupffer's vesicle morphogenesis, cell volume anisotropy impacts cell shape changes.

    Energy conservation by collective movement in schooling fish

    Yangfan Zhang, George V Lauder
    Fish schools showed an U-shaped metabolism-speed curve and reduced the energy use per tail beat up to 56% at high swimming speeds compared to solitary fish.
