    Approximating missing epidemiological data for cervical cancer through Footprinting: A case study in India

    Irene Man, Damien Georges ... Iacopo Baussano
    The proposed Footprinting framework enables approximation of missing cervical cancer epidemiological data and derivation of context-specific impact projection of cervical cancer prevention measures, assisting public health decisions on cervical cancer prevention in India and other countries.

    Drosulfakinin signaling modulates female sexual receptivity in Drosophila

    Tao Wang, Biyang Jing ... Chuan Zhou
    The neuropeptide Drosulfakinin (DSK) functions in a subset of DSK neurons to interact with neural nodes in the sex circuit and acts through its receptor CCKLR-17D3 to control female sexual behavior.

    Fruitless mutant male mosquitoes gain attraction to human odor

    Nipun S Basrur, Maria Elena De Obaldia ... Leslie B Vosshall
    Engineering male mosquitoes lacking the fruitless gene induces them to be attracted to humans.

    Neuropeptide B mediates female sexual receptivity in medaka fish, acting in a female-specific but reversible manner

    Towako Hiraki-Kajiyama, Junpei Yamashita ... Kataaki Okubo
    In the brain of medaka fish, neuropeptide B acts directly downstream of estrogen in a female-specific but reversible manner to mediate female receptivity to male courtship.

    The Makorin lep-2 and the lncRNA lep-5 regulate lin-28 to schedule sexual maturation of the C. elegans nervous system

    Hannah Lawson, Edward Vuong ... Douglas S Portman
    Genes implicated in the control of mammalian puberty function as components of a molecular clock that determines the timing of sexual differentiation in the C. elegans nervous system.

    Building resilient cervical cancer prevention through gender-neutral HPV vaccination

    Irene Man, Damien Georges ... Iacopo Baussano
    Shifting from girls-only to gender-neutral HPV vaccination strategy improves the resilience of cervical cancer prevention and enhances progress towards cervical cancer elimination.

    Layered roles of fruitless isoforms in specification and function of male aggression-promoting neurons in Drosophila

    Margot Wohl, Kenichi Ishii, Kenta Asahina
    Male-type aggressive and courtship behaviors of the fruit flies are differentially specified by two sex-determining genes, providing a substrate for the evolution to sculpt these two behaviors independently.

    Sex-determining genes distinctly regulate courtship capability and target preference via sexually dimorphic neurons

    Kenichi Ishii, Margot Wohl ... Kenta Asahina
    Sex-specific characteristics of the fruit fly courtship behavior are not specified by a single binary switch, but as a combination of traits that are modularly specified by separable genetic switches.

    Evolution of sexual conflict in scorpionflies

    Agnieszka Soszyńska-Maj, Ewa Krzemińska ... Wiesław Krzemiński
    The fossil record of abdominal modifications in male scorpionflies documents a relatively late evolution of oppressive behaviour toward a female during mating and suggest degree of sexual coercion greater in Eocene than in any other known scorpionfly, extinct or extant.

    Sexual dimorphism in striatal dopaminergic responses promotes monogamy in social songbirds

    Kirill Tokarev, Julia Hyland Bruno ... Henning U Voss
    Co-evolution of sexually dimorphic reinforcement systems for song can explain the coexistence of the seemingly contradictory traits of gregariousness and monogamy in social songbirds.
