This study shows that introducing cellulolytic bacteria into C. elegans allows the host to utilize cellulose as a carbon source, improving nutrition and larval yield.

This study infects hACE2 transgenic mice with SARS-CoV-2 and observes pathogenic effects, confirming Koch's postulates and establishing a model for vaccine and therapeutic development.

This study identifies a policing behavior in termites that regulates reproductive division of labor by older reproductives attacking younger ones, with worker assistance in cannibalizing the injured.

The paper identifies a p53-dependent process called mintosis that eliminates aneuploid mitotic progenies through entosis to counteract genome instability.

This study classifies RNase H-like domain-containing proteins in plants, identifying 27 clusters and highlighting their potential roles in DNA replication, RNA transcription, and nucleic acid degradation.

This study identifies two distinct mechanisms regulating PARP2 levels in vitro: ubiquitin-proteasome degradation with serum and sequestration into an insoluble fraction without serum.

This study identifies 26 gut microbiome biomarkers associated with schizophrenia and links specific bacterial species, like Streptococcus vestibularis, to altered neurotransmitter levels and behavioral changes in mice.

This study shows that effector T cells use inosine as an alternative carbon source under glucose restriction, enhancing anti-tumor function and bypassing tumor-imposed metabolic limitations.

The paper identifies intronic heterochromatin as a mechanism suppressing cryptic transcription initiation by TEs in Arabidopsis.

This study compares lane keeping and speed control between post-stroke and normal older drivers using vehicle tracking data, finding higher lane deviation in complex tasks for post-stroke drivers but no speed differences.

This study shows that LXRβ controls glioblastoma cell growth, lipid balance, and immune modulation independently of ABCA1 by regulating cholesterol homeostasis and immune response genes.
