Muscle stem cells locally respond to perturbations of motor neurons and the neuromuscular junction.

The development of brainstem auditory nuclei echoes the divergent evolutionary history of amniote auditory systems.

Staphylococcal heme acquisition needs a highly structured cell envelope, the membrane transporter accumulates in membrane domains most likely to allow concerted passage of heme from the cell wall-funnel to the membrane.

The role of placental aging and metabolic stress in driving labor onset is demonstrated, with a novel mouse model of preterm labor in which injection of a prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor stabilizes placental hypoxia-inducible factor 1 and significantly shortens gestational length.

The Kv3.3 potassium channel subunit is necessary and sufficient to permit presynaptic location and accelerated repolarisation of the presynaptic action potential, thereby conserving resources and enhancing accuracy of timing information on transmission at the calyx of Held excitatory synapse.

Mouse fetal liver macrophages that support erythroid differentiation within erythroblastic islands exhibit a unique and transient expression signature under transcriptional control of EKLF/KLF1.

Microbial macroecological patterns under coarse-graining are captured by a null model of ecology, a result which was leveraged to successfully predict the relationship between fine and coarse-grained diversity.

Social clustering behaviors in Drosophila are closely tied to compensatory mechanisms for developmental traits and adaptive behavior plasticity, requiring early-life social experiences and the memory-encoding neuropeptide signaling pathway.

DNA nanodevices can be targeted to specific cell types in Caenorhabditis elegans with subcellular precision by exploiting either endogenous or synthetic receptors.

Oligodendrocytes are actively engaged in the precise control of synaptic functions in the CNS through activity-dependent BDNF signaling.
