Airborne PM2.5 exposure triggers oxidative stress and mitochondrial apoptosis in placental trophoblast cells via the KLF9/CYP1A1 transcriptional axis, ultimately leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Heterozygosity changes the balance between interfering and non-interfering crossovers during Arabidopsis meiosis.

Model based on Bayesian cue combination shows that procedural motor learning is driven by perceptual error in localizing one's effector.

The readiness potential—a long-established neural precursor of voluntary action claimed to precede the onset of the conscious decision to move—is absent, or at least significantly reduced, for deliberate decisions.

The functional differences between actin isoforms have been explored through structural studies.

A combined experimental and computational approach was developed to understand lateral interactions between membrane-bound proteins and used to quantify the contributions of specific and non-specific interactions to cadherin cis-binding kinetics.

A live imaging and computational approach reveals feedback loops involving F-actin dynamics that regulate the NF-κB transcription factor RELA.

A worm with a nervous system of only 302 neurons satisfies the necessary and sufficient conditions for value-based decision making.

The extracellular concentration of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens core is progressively diminished by white noise, an underutilized, easy-to-titrate aversive stimulus, but is unaffected by white-noise intensity, context valence, and associated probabilistic contingencies.

A new multi camera imaging platform simultaneously captures large-area, high-resolution video of unconstrained small model organisms and provides behavioral measurements that span multiple spatial scales.
