This study identifies CLE42 as a negative regulator of leaf senescence in Arabidopsis, showing it delays senescence by suppressing the ethylene pathway.

The paper shows pre-existing lpxC polymorphisms in E. coli enhance the evolution of colistin resistance via MCR-1 plasmid acquisition through positive epistasis.

This study shows that colistin resistance in E. coli increases resistance to host antimicrobial peptides and virulence, highlighting risks of therapeutic AMP use.

This study shows that aucubin promotes functional recovery after spinal cord injury by reducing inflammation and neuronal apoptosis through the TLR4/NF-κB pathway and mitochondrial protection.

This study identifies hedgehogs as the major amplifying hosts of SFTSV, showing they can sustain viral transmission cycles with ticks in both laboratory and natural settings.

This study evaluates the neutralization of Omicron SARS-CoV-2 by two or three doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine, showing increased neutralization with three doses but reduced durability over time.

The paper identifies piperlongumine as a covalent E3 ligase recruiter that, when conjugated with CDK9 inhibitors, induces targeted protein degradation of CDK9 and EML4-ALK fusion oncoprotein.

This paper shows that SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein inhibits CFTR signaling in airway epithelia, leading to inflammation similar to cystic fibrosis.

The paper analyzes genomic data from Aedes albopictus across the Indo-Pacific to classify Wolbachia infections and mitochondrial haplogroups, finding sex-specific infection patterns and no cryptic species.

This study transfers a wMel Wolbachia variant from Drosophila melanogaster to Aedes aegypti, showing improved heat tolerance and cytoplasmic incompatibility under stress.

The paper develops smart soils made from fluoropolymer waste to monitor rhizosphere chemical dynamics, enabling faster genetic and agrochemical screening.

This study shows that the wMel Wolbachia strain remains stable in Aedes aegypti populations over a decade, with no significant phenotypic or genomic changes affecting its disease-blocking capabilities.

This study shows macaque monkeys use strategy-based hierarchical decision-making to play Pac-Man with over 90% accuracy, revealing advanced cognitive capabilities previously unobserved in animals.

This study shows that adipocyte-specific KLF14 modulation in mice has sex-dependent effects on adiposity and lipid metabolism, with female mice showing increased fat mass and altered lipid storage when KLF14 is deficient.

This study shows that SARS-CoV-2 ORF7 increases monocyte chemotaxis via CCL2 and decreases neutrophil recruitment via reduced IL-8.

The paper identifies a Jurassic fossil as an epiphytic macrolichen, suggesting macrolichen diversity predates the Cenozoic diversification of extant lineages.

This study investigates how maternal versus paternal inheritance of Gsα inactivation in a mouse model of AHO affects bone remodeling, revealing distinct impacts on bone formation and resorption.

MASiVar evaluates DWI variability across multiple levels and processing approaches using a multisite, multisubject dataset.

This study shows that a Wolbachia transinfection (wAlbBQ) remains stable in different Aedes aegypti backgrounds and exhibits consistent phenotypic effects.

The paper describes a new lobeattid insect species from the Pennsylvanian period, revealing its morphology and ecological role as an omnivorous ground egg-layer with a specialized ovipositor.

The paper shows electric fields guide cell movement by controlling biochemical waves and cytoskeletal activity, with faster response on nanotopographic surfaces.

This study examines genetic stability in Aedes aegypti populations after Wolbachia wMel introduction, finding genome-wide stability but some gene-level changes related to immune response and development.

This study shows cardiac medications like ouabain and digitoxin inhibit ACE2 binding to SARS-CoV-2 Spike and block virus entry into human lung cells.

This study identifies a novel carotenoid in Deinococcus radiodurans and shows its role in scavenging radicals and enhancing radioresistance.

The paper identifies two additional carotenoids in Deinococcus radiodurans R1 using UV-Vis, MS/MS spectra, and chemical properties, contributing to understanding its radiation resistance.

This paper shows how actin polymerization dynamics integrate subcellular and cellular-scale guidance cues to direct cell migration.

This study identifies strain LZ-28 as a new member of Mameliella alba through phylogenomic analysis and elucidates its potential interactions with its algal host.

This study shows that ROMO1 is essential for mouse development and maintains spare respiratory capacity and glucose homeostasis in pancreatic beta cells.

This study identifies EXOSC1 as an endogenous source of mutation in KIRC that promotes DNA damage and sensitizes cells to PARP inhibitors.

This study estimates the de novo mutation rate in pigs using whole-genome sequencing of a three-generation pedigree and revises the evolutionary timeline of pigs, including divergence events and domestication history.
