The Drosophila microbiome regulates the cycling of gut metabolites in a circadian clock and diet-dependent manner.

Malaria merozoite surface proteins (MSPs), are thought to have important roles in red blood cell (RBC) invasion and their exposure on the parasite surface makes them attractive vaccine candidates.

Insects possess a remarkable ability to develop innate immune memory, and the mechanisms underlying this process are becoming a central topic in innate immunity research.

This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...

Rats exhibit significant recovery of locomotor function following incomplete spinal cord injuries, albeit with altered gait expression and reduced speed and stepping frequency. These changes likely ...

Parasitic tapeworm larvae release glutamate and other excitatory molecules that can directly excite brain neurons.

This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

A strategy that analyzes the structural properties of RNA could help identify regions that are promising targets for antiviral drugs.

Quantitative measurements of intra-Golgi transport kinetics of diverse secretory cargos challenge the classic cisternal progression model and support the stable compartment model of the Golgi.

The chirality of tissues and organs is essential for their proper function and development. Tissue-level chirality derives from the chirality of individual cells that comprise the tissue, and cellular ...

While it is accepted that extracellular vesicles (EVs)-mediated transfer of microRNAs contributes to intercellular communication, the knowledge about molecular mechanisms controlling the selective and ...

Platelet-derived growth factors can restore the proliferative potential of senescent cells taken from the degenerated intervertebral discs of aged humans.
