    Modelling the impact of decidual senescence on embryo implantation in human endometrial assembloids

    Thomas M Rawlings, Komal Makwana ... Emma S Lucas
    The study of embryo-endometrial interactions in assembloid co-cultures identifies novel mechanisms of reproductive failure.

    Human embryonic lung epithelial tips are multipotent progenitors that can be expanded in vitro as long-term self-renewing organoids

    Marko Z Nikolić, Oriol Caritg ... Emma L Rawlins
    Improved characterisation of human embryonic lung development highlights human-mouse differences and facilitates the development of defined culture conditions for the expansion of self-renewing, multipotent human lung epithelial progenitor cells.

    PTPN22 R620W gene editing in T cells enhances low-avidity TCR responses

    Warren Anderson, Fariba Barahmand-pour-Whitman ... David J Rawlings
    Gene editing to generate precisely matched primary human T cell populations demonstrates that the common autoimmune risk allele in the tyrosine phosphatase, PTPN22, promotes signaling in cells expressing a low-avidity, self-reactive TCR specific for a diabetes-associated self-antigen.

    Integrative neuromechanics of crawling in D. melanogaster larvae

    Cengiz Pehlevan, Paolo Paoletti, L Mahadevan
    An integrative model of coordinated crawling in fruit fly maggots links neuromuscular dynamics to body-substrate mechanics in the presence of proprioceptive feedback.

    The effect of variation of individual infectiousness on SARS-CoV-2 transmission in households

    Tim K Tsang, Xiaotong Huang ... Benjamin John Cowling
    Household transmission modeling qualified variation of individual infectiousness among infected persons, which could be caused by both biological factors and host behaviors.

    Large depth differences between target and flankers can increase crowding: Evidence from a multi-depth plane display

    Samuel P Smithers, Yulong Shao ... Peter J Bex
    Visual crowding from clutter outside the limits of binocular fusion can still have a significant impact on object recognition and visual perception in the peripheral field.

    A functional genetic toolbox for human tissue-derived organoids

    Dawei Sun, Lewis Evans ... Emma L Rawlins
    To facilitate human developmental biology research, CRISPR-mediated homologous recombination, tightly inducible gene knockdowns (CRISPRi) and overexpression (CRISPRa) have been efficiently applied to human organoids.

    Mechanical vibration patterns elicit behavioral transitions and habituation in crawling Drosophila larvae

    Alexander Berne, Tom Zhang ... Mason Klein
    Habituation to mechanical vibration of crawling Drosophila larvae exhibits distinct time constants that characterize desensitization, re-sensitization, and further adaptation to repeated stimulus patterns.

    Establishing the role of ATP for the function of the RIG-I innate immune sensor

    David C Rawling, Megan E Fitzgerald, Anna Marie Pyle
    The immune sensor RIG-I uses ATP-mediated compaction as a signaling trigger and a proofreading mechanism.

    A physicochemical perspective of aging from single-cell analysis of pH, macromolecular and organellar crowding in yeast

    Sara N Mouton, David J Thaller ... Liesbeth M Veenhoff
    In mitotically aging yeast cells, the cytosol acidifies, the distances between the organellar membranes decrease dramatically, but crowding on the scale of the average size protein is relatively stable.
