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.

An expanded map of mouse cortex reveals the expansion of retinotopic organization into barrel and retrosplenial cortices.

The subjective time of social interactions reflects one's autistic-like tendency and is critically mediated by oxytocin, indicating that time perception is ingrained with personality traits, which likely have neuroendocrine origins as per previous research.

pyControl is an open-source tool that makes it easy to specify complex behavioural tasks, run them at scale on low-cost hardware, and communicate task logic to other researchers.

A chewing herbivore induced WRKY transcription factor induces jasmonate-dependent defences and supresses gibbererellin-dependent growth, the latter of which renders rice plants more susceptible to secondary infestation by a piercing-sucking herbivore.

New HIV-1 protease inhibitor designs result in more potent inhibitors with high genetic barriers to resistance and the ability to lead virus evolution down less fit pathways when resistance occurs.

Effect of CCL2 on HIV-1 replication is mediated by mobilization of ALIX from F-actin leading to enhanced virion release and improved fitness and this requires the Gag late motif, LYPX.

DCX negatively regulates dynein-mediated retrograde transport through two critical interactions by regulating dynein binding to microtubules and regulating the composition of dynein/dyactin/JIP3 motor complex.

Nanos is required for germline specification by erasure of maternal program in primordial germ cells.

Cohesin loader activity is regulated by phosphorylation of its cohesin substrate.
