Central and peripheral tau retention modulated by an anti-tau antibody.

This study investigates the body-wide distribution and retention of CSF-derived tau protein, showing increased uptake in aging and APP/PS1 mice, and demonstrates the effect of anti-tau antibodies on its clearance and accumulation in different organs.

Genomic time-series data show that gene flow maintains high genetic diversity despite substantial genetic drift in a butterfly species

The paper shows that gene flow maintains high genetic diversity in Lycaeides butterflies despite low contemporary effective population sizes and substantial genetic drift.

Missing pieces in the full annual cycle of fish ecology: a systematic review of the phenology of freshwater fish research

This paper reviews the seasonal timing of freshwater fish research, finding a bias toward summer studies and underrepresentation of winter research, which may limit understanding of seasonal ecological interactions.

Fission yeast Pak1 phosphorylates anillin-like Mid1 for spatial control of cytokinesis

This study identifies Pak1 as a kinase that phosphorylates Mid1 to regulate cytokinesis in fission yeast by controlling CAR assembly and division plane positioning.

Genomic evidence of genetic variation with pleiotropic effects on caterpillar fitness and plant traits in a model legume

This study shows that genetic variation in Medicago truncatula affects caterpillar growth and survival, with pleiotropic effects on plant traits and caterpillar performance.
