Mammalian condensed chromosomes exhibit diverse structural properties, as reflected in their varying stiffness across different cell stages and with aging.

Evolved gene expression changes in Drosophila simulans uncovered the interplay between parallel evolution, polymorphism, and pleiotropy and indicated that both direct and indirect effects of pleiotropy contribute to parallel evolution.
A subset of hippocampal place cells, which is phase-locked to fast gamma rhythms, compressively encodes information at precessing slow gamma phases and therefore predominates to theta sequence development.
Different aspects of thermal stimuli, such as speed and intensity, are detected by distinct TRP channel-based mechanisms, with TRPV1 and TRPM2 playing unique roles in warmth perception and thermal decision-making.
Tumor-suppressive protein FRMD8 inhibits breast cancer progression by regulating the level of ERα and has the possibility to be a potential target for overcoming tamoxifen treatment resistance.
