    First evidence for the evolution of host manipulation by tumors during the long-term vertical transmission of tumor cells in Hydra oligactis

    Justine Boutry, Océane Rieu ... Fréderic Thomas
    Transmissible tumors in Hydra can manipulate host phenotype by inducing the growth of supernumerary tentacles, enhancing host foraging efficiency and promoting tumor vertical transmission, akin to manipulative parasites.

    SIV-specific neutralizing antibody induction following selection of a PI3K drive-attenuated nef variant

    Hiroyuki Yamamoto, Tetsuro Matano
    Attenuation of viral Nef-driven PI3 kinase signaling in B cells precedes the induction of neutralizing antibody responses against a difficult-to-neutralize simian immunodeficiency virus.

    The Kv2.2 channel mediates the inhibition of prostaglandin E2 on glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells

    Chengfang Pan, Ying Liu ... Changlong Hu
    Prostaglandin E2 inhibits Kv2.2 channels via the EP2/4-PKA signaling pathway, leading to decreased glucose-stimulated action potential firing and insulin secretion in normal pancreatic β-cells.

    Bridging the 3D geometrical organisation of white matter pathways across anatomical length scales and species

    Hans Martin Kjer, Mariam Andersson ... Tim B Dyrby
    Common principles of white matter microstructure and pathway organisation was revealed using diffusion MRI and x-ray synchrotron imaging across resolutions, and employing diffusion tensor, micro-tensor, multi-fiber, and structure tensor models.

    Adaptive chunking improves effective working memory capacity in a prefrontal cortex and basal ganglia circuit

    Aneri Soni, Michael J Frank
    This frontostriatal neural network model links the source of working memory capacity limitations to challenges in learning resource management, and mitigates this challenge by learning a 'chunking' strategy.
