Prenatal Exposure to Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles Influences Fetal Gut Immunity and Immune Programming

Manuel S. Vidal, Ananth Kumar Kammala, Madhuri Tatiparthy…·Ramkumar Menon

This study shows that prenatal exposure to bacterial extracellular vesicles (bEVs) enhances fetal gut immunity by promoting progenitor expansion and differentiation, with effects influenced by microbiota.

Excessive ERK-dependent synaptic clustering with enhanced motor learning in the MECP2 duplication syndrome mouse model of autism

Ryan Thomas Ash, Shelly Alexandra Buffington, Jiyoung Park…·Stelios M. Smirnakis

The paper shows that in MECP2 duplication syndrome mice, excessive ERK-dependent synaptic clustering enhances motor learning, suggesting a mechanism for abnormal learning in autism.
