Gq-pathway activation in hippocampal CA1 astrocytes rescues ischemia-induced memory deficits and synaptic plasticity

This study shows that activating the Gq pathway in hippocampal astrocytes improves memory and synaptic plasticity after stroke in mice.

Early Reprogramming Intermediates Enable Direct Neuronal Conversion via NGN2

This study shows that human fibroblasts can be converted into neurons via NGN2 overexpression after partial reprogramming for 3 days, identifying intermediate cell states that influence conversion efficiency.

Elevated Temperatures Representing Heatwave Conditions Shift Active Nitrifying Communities and Their Viruses in Tidal Flats and Agricultural Soils

This study shows heatwave conditions alter active nitrifying communities and their viruses in tidal flats and agricultural soils, affecting nutrient cycling.

Metabolites reflect variability introduced by mesoscale eddies in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre

This study examines how mesoscale eddies affect the metabolome of the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre by analyzing metabolite concentrations and molecular features across different eddy states.

Conditioned immunological memory: implication for cognition of immune cells

This study demonstrates that immune cells can undergo classical conditioning, forming associations between hapten analogues and conjugates, leading to conditioned immunological memory and humoral immunosuppression.
