Contact with bacteria and subsequent hypoxia promotes functional maturation of the immature gastrointestinal tract.

The structure, function and mechanism of the malaria vaccine candidate CelTOS reveal a unique pore-forming and membrane-disrupting protein with specificity for the inner leaflet of host and vector cells.

Even though the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi develops polarized epithelial tissues, polarization is not mediated by the conserved mechanisms polarizing bilaterian and cnidarian epithelial cells.

Activating ASIC channels in the amygdala makes a single reminder more effective at rendering consolidated fear memories labile and susceptible to modification.

Activation of Tacr1-expressing neurons including ON cells in the rostral ventromedial medulla inhibits acute and chronic itch-related behavior.

Transient suppression of activity in the macaque mediodorsal thalamus impairs adjustment of secondary reinforcer values and disrupts appropriate action selection in a reinforcer devaluation task; this profile is distinct from that of amygdala or subregions of orbitofrontal cortex.

The predictive power of a computational model advances understanding of the neuronal and circuit biophysical mechanisms that generate the respiratory rhythm and neural activity patterns in the mammalian brainstem.

The archetypal tumor promoter PMA, which promotes cancer without mutating the DNA, increases Wnt signaling by activating macropinocytosis and membrane trafficking in Xenopus embryos and tumor cells.

Circulation of molecules from the brain can serve as a rapid mode of communication from the brain to the liver.

Biallelic MAD2L1BP variants contribute to oocyte metaphase I arrest in women with primary infertility and p31^comet is required for human oocyte maturation.
