    1. Immunology and Inflammation

    IgE-mediated mast cell activation promotes inflammation and cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis

    Qian Wang, Christin M Lepus ... William H Robinson
    Osteoarthritis pathogenesis is driven by IgE-mediated mast cell activation.
    1. Cancer Biology

    A generalized theory of age-dependent carcinogenesis

    Andrii Rozhok, James DeGregori
    The multi-stage model of carcinogenesis requires the incorporation of aging-dependent somatic selection and life history-dependent evolution of species-specific tumor suppressor mechanisms in order to generalize carcinogenesis across tissues and species.
    1. Neuroscience

    The influence of task outcome on implicit motor learning

    Hyosub E Kim, Darius E Parvin, Richard B Ivry
    During a sensorimotor perturbation, task outcome may serve as a gain on implicit adaptation or provide a distinct error signal for a second, independent implicit learning process.
    1. Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine

    Sox9+ messenger cells orchestrate large-scale skeletal regeneration in the mammalian rib

    Stephanie T Kuwahara, Maxwell A Serowoky ... Francesca V Mariani
    Large-scale skeletal regeneration requires Hh signaling in Sox9+ lineage cells to coordinate callus formation and bone repair.
    1. Microbiology and Infectious Disease

    Plasticity of Escherichia coli cell wall metabolism promotes fitness and antibiotic resistance across environmental conditions

    Elizabeth A Mueller, Alexander JF Egan ... Petra Anne Levin
    Environmental specialization of bacterial cell wall synthases influences intrinsic resistance to cell wall active antibiotics.

    Natural variation in C. elegans arsenic toxicity is explained by differences in branched chain amino acid metabolism

    Stefan Zdraljevic, Bennett William Fox ... Erik C Andersen
    Quantitative genetics approaches using Caenorhabditis elegans facilitate the discovery of a novel arsenic toxicity mechanism.
    1. Neuroscience

    Extrinsic and intrinsic dynamics in movement intermittency

    Damar Susilaradeya, Wei Xu ... Andrew Jackson
    The rhythmicity in upper-limb tracking movements and associated population dynamics in primary motor cortex is explained by a feedback controller incorporating optimal state estimation.

    Patronin governs minus-end-out orientation of dendritic microtubules to promote dendrite pruning in Drosophila

    Yan Wang, Menglong Rui ... Fengwei Yu
    A minus-end-binding stabilizes minus-end-out microtubules in dendrites, which are required for dendrite-specific pruning during neuronal remodelling.

    Reduced signal for polygenic adaptation of height in UK Biobank

    Jeremy J Berg, Arbel Harpak ... Graham Coop
    Many prior signals of polygenic adaptation on human height do not replicate in the UK Biobank.

    The mlpt/Ubr3/Svb module comprises an ancient developmental switch for embryonic patterning

    Suparna Ray, Miriam I Rosenberg ... François Payre
    mille-pattes micropeptides have conserved function in insect embryonic patterning together with transcription factor Shaven-baby and ubiquitin ligase Ubr3, except in flies wherein restoring broad embryonic Svb expression restores patterning potency.
