The paper identifies APPM, a micropeptide that modulates OGDHc activity and ATP production, showing therapeutic potential in heart failure.

This study identifies astrocytes and D-serine/NMDAR signaling as key mediators of the cognitive benefits of α7nAChRs and their targeting therapeutics in mice.

This study shows that ventral striatal astrocytes influence reinforcement learning by modulating decision noisiness and reward-guided choice through calcium dynamics.

This study shows that norepinephrine modulates synapses via astrocytic adrenergic receptors and Ca2+ dynamics, independent of neuronal receptors.

This study analyzes the virome in SLE patients and controls, finding higher viral positivity in patients and suggesting viral infections may worsen disease severity.

STARDUST is a pipeline that analyzes astrocyte calcium dynamics by detecting and extracting discrete calcium signals from fluorescence recordings.

VIGA is a tool for eukaryotic virus identification and genome assembly from NGS data, showing improved performance in assembling complete genomes and revealing virome differences in disease states.

The paper identifies Ribbon as a regulator of ribosomal protein gene expression during early cell growth in Drosophila salivary glands and trachea, showing context-dependent mechanisms.
