    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.

    Metazoan evolution of glutamate receptors reveals unreported phylogenetic groups and divergent lineage-specific events

    David Ramos-Vicente, Jie Ji ... Àlex Bayés
    The animal phylogeny of glutamate receptors indicates that vertebrate types do not account for all receptor classes originated during evolution, neither are they the pinnacle of a linear evolutive process.

    Neural dynamics of causal inference in the macaque frontoparietal circuit

    Guangyao Qi, Wen Fang ... Liping Wang
    In causal inference, the premotor cortex dynamically integrates prior information and current sensory inputs to infer hidden structures, and selectively updates sensory representations in the parietal cortex to support behavior.

    Specific lexico-semantic predictions are associated with unique spatial and temporal patterns of neural activity

    Lin Wang, Gina Kuperberg, Ole Jensen
    The prediction of specific words is associated with distinct spatial and temporal patterns of neural activity within the left inferior and medial temporal regions before the predicted word is presented.

    S-acylation by ZDHHC20 targets ORAI1 channels to lipid rafts for efficient Ca2+ signaling by Jurkat T cell receptors at the immune synapse

    Amado Carreras-Sureda, Laurence Abrami ... Nicolas Demaurex
    ORAI1 ion channel lipid modification is required for a proper immune synapse formation and T cell activation.

    Glutamatergic supramammillary nucleus neurons respond to threatening stressors and promote active coping

    Abraham Escobedo, Salli-Ann Holloway ... Aaron J Norris
    Activation of a population of glutamatergic neurons in supramammillary nucleus enhances active coping behaviors in response to threats, offering new insights for therapeutic strategies against anxiety and mood disorders.

    Calcium handling precedes cardiac differentiation to initiate the first heartbeat

    Richard CV Tyser, Antonio MA Miranda ... Paul R Riley
    High-resolution live imaging reveals how and when the mouse heart first starts to beat during development and how the onset of beating impacts on heart muscle cell maturation and heart formation.

    Invariant neural subspaces maintained by feedback modulation

    Laura B Naumann, Joram Keijser, Henning Sprekeler
    Feedback-driven gain modulation provides a mechanism to generate and maintain invariant sensory representations in the presence of contextual changes by dynamically adapting feedforward sensory processing.

    Target-agnostic identification of human antibodies to Plasmodium falciparum sexual forms reveals cross-stage recognition of glutamate-rich repeats

    Axelle Amen, Randy Yoo ... Matthijs M Jore
    A naturally acquired human monoclonal antibody recognizes proteins expressed at different stages of the Plasmodium falciparum life cycle through affinity-matured homotypic interactions with glutamate-rich repeats.

    VTA-projecting cerebellar neurons mediate stress-dependent depression-like behaviors

    Soo Ji Baek, Jin Sung Park ... Keiko Tanaka-Yamamoto
    Long-term chemogenetic manipulation of specific cerebellar pathway involving ventral tegmental area revealed a critical role of the pathway as a proactive mediator of the stress-dependent development of depression-like behaviors.
