This paper identifies COWP4 and COWP6 as distinct oocyst wall proteins in Cryptosporidium parvum, showing COWP4 is essential for suture formation and infectivity while COWP6 links wall structure to host interaction.

The paper identifies a conserved postprandial metabolite, pTOS, that links nutrient intake to energy balance through a gut-brain pathway in pythons and mice, with potential relevance to humans.

This study shows that repeated mating failure in male Drosophila reduces sweet taste perception through dopamine signaling in specific neural circuits.

This study identifies DH44+ neurons in Drosophila that detect dietary amino acids and promote food consumption through an amino acid transporter CG13248.
