This study shows that injury-induced tau phosphorylation in Drosophila leads to aggressive behavior through dopaminergic circuit activation without causing neurodegeneration.

The paper investigates intracellular transport pauses, finding they are active, motor-driven states rather than passive, and reveals a quantitative relationship between pause diffusivity and run velocity.

The paper identifies a universal stick-slip transport mechanism in cells, showing vesicle velocities follow a Gamma distribution across different environments.

This study shows that microtubule acetylation increases during cellular senescence and affects cytoplasmic health by altering transport and microtubule dynamics.
