Netrin-1 drives cell-type-specific plasticity of human dopaminergic neurons during circuit integration in a Parkinsonian model

This study identifies Netrin-1 as a DA-specific cue that enhances graft integration and functional recovery in Parkinsonian models without off-target effects.

Recapitulating whipworm development in vitro using caecaloids

This study establishes an in vitro system using caecaloids to recapitulate whipworm development, showing that larvae develop anatomical features and growth patterns similar to in vivo conditions.

Nest defense intensity does not vary with time of day in American Herring Gulls (Larus smithsonianus)

This study examines diurnal variation in nest defense intensity of American Herring Gulls and finds no significant difference across time periods.

Hatching of whipworm eggs induced by bacterial contact is serine-protease dependent

This study identifies serine proteases as key mediators of whipworm egg hatching induced by bacterial contact, revealing bacterial and larval enzyme interactions.

Optimisation of single-nuclei isolation and RNA sequencing of parasitic nematodes

This paper optimizes single-nuclei isolation and RNA sequencing for parasitic nematodes, improving yield and RNA quality across life stages and sexes.
