Defining mononuclear phagocyte distribution and behaviour in the zebrafish heart

The paper identifies distinct mononuclear phagocyte populations in the adult zebrafish heart and shows their differential distribution and behavior, including proliferation after injury.

A cellular basis for the mammalian nocturnal-diurnal switch

The paper identifies a conserved cell-intrinsic signal inversion that enables the transition from nocturnality to diurnality, with mTOR signaling as a central mediator.

Mapping trait versus species turnover reveals spatiotemporal variation in functional redundancy in a plant-pollinator network

The paper examines how trait turnover within species affects functional redundancy and network vulnerability in an Arctic bumblebee-plant pollination network across elevation and season.

Subcutaneous nanotherapy repurposes the immunosuppressive mechanism of rapamycin to enhance allogeneic islet graft viability

This paper shows subcutaneous rapamycin delivery via nanocarriers changes its immunosuppressive mechanism, improving islet graft survival in a transplant model.

Genetic and physical interactions between the organellar mechanosensitive ion channel homologs MSL1, MSL2, and MSL3 reveal a role for inter-organellar communication in plant development

This study shows that MSL1, MSL2, and MSL3 interact genetically and physically, suggesting inter-organellar communication is important for plant development.

Quantitative multi-locus metabarcoding and waggle dance interpretation reveal honey bee spring foraging patterns in Midwest agroecosystems

The paper uses pollen metabarcoding and waggle dance analysis to study honey bee foraging patterns in agroecosystems, finding key plant taxa and spatial preferences.
