Insectivores exhibit superior microbial transmission efficiency and elevated zoonotic risk by 2035 relative to rodents and bats

This study compares microbial transmission efficiency and zoonotic risk among insectivores, rodents, and bats, finding insectivores have superior transmission and higher zoonotic risk by 2035.

Massively parallel in vivo Perturb-seq reveals cell type-specific transcriptional networks in cortical development

This study develops a high-throughput in vivo Perturb-seq platform to analyze gene function across diverse cell types in the brain and peripheral nervous system, identifying cell type-specific transcriptional networks.

Autophagy in DG engrams mediates Rac1-dependent forgetting via TLR2/4 signals in microglia

This study identifies a pathway where Rac1 increases autophagy in DG engrams, activates microglia via TLR2/4, and promotes forgetting through synapse remodeling.
