The paper investigates Hmgb1 release kinetics during regulated cell death and shows that rapid release generates higher local concentrations, influencing its extracellular functions.

The paper identifies PKA and phosphatases as regulators of sleep-wake cycles through genetic and functional studies in mice.

This study shows low-affinity EGFRLs like EREG and AREG transmit signals more efficiently than high-affinity ligands during collective cell migration and wound healing.

This study identifies CaMKII-dependent activity of cortical parvalbumin neurons as essential for homeostatic sleep rebound following prolonged wakefulness.

This study shows that CaMKIIβ phosphorylation regulates sleep duration and steps in mammals by modulating kinase activity in excitatory neurons.

This study shows that gsx2 mediates rostro-caudal positional signals to specify inferior olivary neurons from ptf1a-expressing progenitors in zebrafish.
