Direct measures of inner gastrointestinal signals via ingestible capsules highlight the role of stomach pH in shaping human feelings of disgust, fear and happiness.
A new approach uses heat-induced antigen retrieval to enable tissue clearing, multiple-round immunostaining, and expansion microscopy for volumetric imaging of centimeter-scale clinical formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens.

Impaired lysosomal acidification results in retention of iron inside lysosomes, triggering functional iron deficiency, dysfunctional mitochondria (especially mtDNA loss), and inflammation in vivo in a mouse model of lysosomal disease.
Nerve tracing and behavioral studies in tumor-bearing mice together with transcriptional and functional analysis reveal cancer-induced central and peripheral neuronal alterations that influence behavior.
Dopamine release within the mouse external globus pallidus, an area of very sparse innervation, is observed and described for the first time through a new technique: flashing false fluorescent neurotransmitters.
Genetic disruption of sodium-hydrogen exchanger 6 (NHE6) reduces amyloid plaques in humanized Alzheimer's disease mouse models and restores normal synaptic responses to neuromodulatory input in humanized ApoE4-expressing animals.
A regionally resolved single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis of GBM-associated leukocytes reveals distinct activation states of the main immune populations between tumor center, peripheral infiltration zone and blood.
