    Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition reduces stress-induced affective pathology

    Joyonna Carrie Gamble-George, Rita Baldi ... Sachin Patel
    Mechanistically distinct COX-2 inhibitors reduce stress-induced behavioral pathology via unique multimodal molecular mechanisms, and could be used to treat mood disorders.

    Oligodendrocyte-encoded Kir4.1 function is required for axonal integrity

    Lucas Schirmer, Wiebke Möbius ... David H Rowitch
    Ultrastructural and loss-of-function experiments show that oligodendrocyte-encoded Kir4.1 is located near active axonal structures, including within myelin inner tongue, and has critical functions to promote axonal activity and preserve integrity.

    Spontaneous mutations and the origin and maintenance of quantitative genetic variation

    Wen Huang, Richard F Lyman ... Trudy FC Mackay
    Whole genome DNA sequence analysis, genome wide gene expression and complex organismal phenotypes in Drosophila mutation accumulation lines provide a robust estimate of the spontaneous mutation rate and mutational effects.

    Mushroom body output neurons encode valence and guide memory-based action selection in Drosophila

    Yoshinori Aso, Divya Sitaraman ... Gerald M Rubin
    Output neurons in the mushroom body of the fruit fly brain encode the positive or negative survival value of stimuli, enabling insects to choose adaptive approach and avoidance behaviors through associative learning.

    Parvovirus minute virus of mice interacts with sites of cellular DNA damage to establish and amplify its lytic infection

    Kinjal Majumder, Juexin Wang ... David J Pintel
    Development of a generally adaptable conformational capture assay for use in-trans identifies the specific direct interaction sites between the parvovirus minute virus of mice and the cellular genome during infection as sites of cellular DNA damage.
