    Dynamic change of electrostatic field in TMEM16F permeation pathway shifts its ion selectivity

    Wenlei Ye, Tina W Han ... Lily Yeh Jan
    TMEM16F shifts its ion selectivity in response to change of intracellular Ca2+, membrane potential and ionic strength.

    Resistance to different anthracycline chemotherapeutics elicits distinct and actionable primary metabolic dependencies in breast cancer

    Shawn McGuirk, Yannick Audet-Delage ... Julie St-Pierre
    Breast cancer resistant to either doxorubicin or epirubicin relies on distinct primary metabolic processes, which can be targeted to reduce cancer progression.

    Decreased recent adaptation at human mendelian disease genes as a possible consequence of interference between advantageous and deleterious variants

    Chenlu Di, Jesus Murga Moreno ... David Enard
    Harmful genetic variants at mendelian disease genes slow down adaptation, by interfering with the spread of adaptive variants in a population.

    Innovation of heterochromatin functions drives rapid evolution of essential ZAD-ZNF genes in Drosophila

    Bhavatharini Kasinathan, Serafin U Colmenares III ... Harmit S Malik
    Heterochromatic sequences evolve rapidly, as do ZAD-ZNF genes-encoding proteins involved in heterochromatin functions, explaining why evolutionarily dynamic ZAD-ZNF genes are more likely to be essential in Drosophila.

    Human axial progenitors generate trunk neural crest cells in vitro

    Thomas JR Frith, Ilaria Granata ... Anestis Tsakiridis
    Pluripotent stem cell differentiation provides insight into how neural crest subtypes of distinct axial identity are patterned in human embryos.

    A novel synaptic plasticity rule explains homeostasis of neuromuscular transmission

    Gilles Ouanounou, Gérard Baux, Thierry Bal
    Skeletal muscle cells constantly monitor their own activity and that of their partner neuron at synapses, enabling them to provide the neuron with feedback regarding neurotransmitter release.

    Mesolimbic dopamine projections mediate cue-motivated reward seeking but not reward retrieval in rats

    Briac Halbout, Andrew T Marshall ... Sean B Ostlund
    Inhibiting ventral tegmental dopamine neurons, or their inputs to nucleus accumbens, disrupts cue-motivated reward seeking in a manner that depends on the microstructure of behavior.

    The orphan receptor GPR88 blunts the signaling of opioid receptors and multiple striatal GPCRs

    Thibaut Laboute, Jorge Gandía ... Jérôme AJ Becker
    GPR88 inhibits G-protein signaling of nearby GPCRs, and dampens b-arrestin recruitment by all GPCRs tested, likely by sequestration in intracellular compartments.

    The infection-tolerant white-footed deermouse tempers interferon responses to endotoxin in comparison to the mouse and rat

    Ana Milovic, Jonathan V Duong, Alan G Barbour
    Comparing the white-footed deermouse with mice and rats in an inflammation model reveals a means for the observed infection tolerance in this key animal reservoir for several human diseases.

    Combined lineage tracing and scRNA-seq reveals unexpected first heart field predominance of human iPSC differentiation

    Francisco X Galdos, Carissa Lee ... Sean M Wu
    TBX5 lineage tracing and high resolution single cell transcriptomics uncover the predominance of first heart field development during human-induced pluripotent stem cell cardiac differentiation.
