Generation of Human Taste Bud Organoids as a Human-Mimetic Platform for Modeling Taste Perception

This paper develops a human taste bud organoid system to model taste perception, identifying key signaling pathways and cell types.

A Regulatory Axis for Tonotopic MYO7A Expression in Cochlear Hair Cells

The paper identifies a cis-regulatory element, EnhancerA, and the transcription factor SIX2 that regulate tonotopic Myo7a isoform expression in cochlear hair cells, linking cochlear position to protein diversity and function.

Short-term memory errors are strongly associated with a drift in neural activity in the posterior parietal cortex

This study identifies a drift in neural activity in the posterior parietal cortex during delay periods as a key factor in short-term memory errors in mice.

TMEM145 is a key component in stereociliary link structures of outer hair cells

This study identifies TMEM145 as a critical transmembrane protein in OHC stereociliary structures, showing its necessity for structural integrity and auditory function.

Type I interferon signaling enhances kainic acid-induced seizure severity

This study shows that type I interferon signaling worsens seizure severity in a mouse model and suggests targeting these signals could be a therapeutic approach for epilepsy.
