    Disease consequences of higher adiposity uncoupled from its adverse metabolic effects using Mendelian randomisation

    Susan Martin, Jessica Tyrrell ... Hanieh Yaghootkar
    Using genetics, it is possible to uncouple higher adiposity from its adverse metabolic effects and show that some obesity-associated conditions may benefit from treating the metabolic effects alone, whilst others may benefit more from weight loss.

    Nitric oxide modulates contrast suppression in a subset of mouse retinal ganglion cells

    Dominic Gonschorek, Matías A Goldin ... Thomas Euler
    Nitric oxide is a type-selective neuromodulator affecting the temporal, but not the spatial response kinetics of a specific subset of mouse retinal ganglion cells.

    Hypoxia triggers collective aerotactic migration in Dictyostelium discoideum

    Olivier Cochet-Escartin, Mete Demircigil ... Jean-Paul Rieu
    Cell assemblies can use environmental cues created by their own respiration, such as oxygen gradients, to collectively guide themselves to more favorable locations in a remarkably robust and long-lasting way.

    Global cellular response to chemical perturbation of PLK4 activity and abnormal centrosome number

    Johnny M Tkach, Reuben Philip ... Laurence Pelletier
    Genome-wide CRISPR screens in human cells identifies a role for TRIM37 in growth arrest after chemical inhibition of PLK4.

    Fine-tuning of Notch signaling sets the boundary of the organ of Corti and establishes sensory cell fates

    Martin L Basch, Rogers M Brown II ... Andrew K Groves
    The cochlea deploys two Fringe proteins at exactly the same time and position to regulate a novel mode of Notch signaling that sets the boundary of the organ of Corti, the ear's hearing organ.

    Threat of shock increases excitability and connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus

    Nicholas L Balderston, Elizabeth Hale ... Christian Grillon
    Multimodal neuroimaging was used to study the effect of threat on spontaneous brain activity and functional connectivity, and demonstrated that threat increases both activity and connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus, a key node in the frontoparietal attention network.

    A mammalian Wnt5a–Ror2–Vangl2 axis controls the cytoskeleton and confers cellular properties required for alveologenesis

    Kuan Zhang, Erica Yao ... Pao-Tien Chuang
    Regulation of cellular properties such as ligand secretion and migratory ability through changes in the cytoskeleton mediated by a Wnt5a–Ror2–Vangl2 axis is a major determinant of alveolar formation.

    Coupling of Slack and NaV1.6 sensitizes Slack to quinidine blockade and guides anti-seizure strategy development

    Tian Yuan, Yifan Wang ... Zhuo Huang
    Unveiling NaV1.6's role in sensitizing Slack to quinidine disruption redefines KCNT1-related epilepsy treatment strategies.

    Proteogenomic analysis of air-pollution-associated lung cancer reveals prevention and therapeutic opportunities

    Honglei Zhang, Chao Liu ... Gaofeng Li
    MAD1 and TPRN were identified as novel potential therapeutic targets of lung adenocarcinoma in female never-smokers from the Xuanwei area.

    Similar neural and perceptual masking effects of low-power optogenetic stimulation in primate V1

    Spencer Chin-Yu Chen, Giacomo Benvenuti ... Eyal Seidemann
    Simultaneous optogenetic stimulation and calcium imaging in V1 of behaving macaques reveals that low-power optostimulation can substitute a visual mask and significantly reduce perceptual and neural detection sensitivities.
