    Bacterial vampirism mediated through taxis to serum

    Siena J Glenn, Zealon Gentry-Lear ... Arden Baylink
    Enteric bacteria associated with bloodstream infections are attracted to human serum through L-serine and the chemoreceptor Tsr, and in an enterohemorrhagic lesion model use chemotaxis to invade damaged vasculature.

    Dysregulated H19/Igf2 expression disrupts cardiac-placental axis during development of Silver-Russell syndrome-like mouse models

    Suhee Chang, Diana Fulmer ... Marisa S Bartolomei
    Precise dosage of the imprinted H19 and Igf2 genes is critical for normal embryonic development, especially related to the cardiac-placental axis.

    The imprinted Zdbf2 gene finely tunes control of feeding and growth in neonates

    Juliane Glaser, Julian Iranzo ... Deborah Bourc'his
    Zdbf2 is a paternally expressed gene that is mainly expressed in the hypothalamus and promotes appetite and body weight gain in neonates.

    Regulation of nerve growth and patterning by cell surface protein disulphide isomerase

    Geoffrey MW Cook, Catia Sousa ... Roger J Keynes
    The nerve growth-repellent activity that generates spinal nerve repeat-patterning in birds and mammals is identified at the molecular level, and a similar system is revealed in adult brain grey matter.

    Generation of the squamous epithelial roof of the 4th ventricle

    Florent Campo-Paysaa, Jonathan DW Clarke, Richard JT Wingate
    A new cell type at the border of the fourth ventricle is the exclusive source of roof plate.

    Nutrient status shapes selfish mitochondrial genome dynamics across different levels of selection

    Bryan L Gitschlag, Ann T Tate, Maulik R Patel
    Food supply and nutrient stress tolerance coordinately shape the multilevel selection dynamics of a mitochondrial cheater by promoting cheater persistence at both within-host and between-host levels of selection.

    Response to immune checkpoint blockade improved in pre-clinical model of breast cancer after bariatric surgery

    Laura M Sipe, Mehdi Chaib ... Liza Makowski
    Bariatric surgery reversed obesity-exacerbated tumor burden and increased efficacy of anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy.

    The starvation hormone, fibroblast growth factor-21, extends lifespan in mice

    Yuan Zhang, Yang Xie ... David J Mangelsdorf
    Transgenic mice with high levels of FGF21 live for longer than wild-type mice and do so without reducing food intake.

    Reinstatement of long-term memory following erasure of its behavioral and synaptic expression in Aplysia

    Shanping Chen, Diancai Cai ... David L Glanzman
    Storage of long-term memory in Aplysia does not require stable synapses.
