This study shows indaziflam, a cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor herbicide, only affects organisms with cellulose-containing cell walls, not those with chitin or glycoprotein walls.

The paper experimentally validates bacterial sense-to-sense genetic code variants using cell-free translation and proteomics, showing Trp incorporation at CGG codons in E. coli and Anaerococcus prevotii.

This paper engineers the CasX-Editor to create a more potent and specific genome editor for therapeutic use, showing improved activity and reduced off-target effects in nonhuman primates.

The paper uses dog-assisted scat sampling to study genetic diversity and relatedness in black-footed cats, finding low genetic differentiation and sex-specific relatedness patterns.

This study analyzes blood-meal sources of Culex mosquitoes in Tanzania, finding humans and non-commensal rodents as primary hosts and no human-pathogenic arboviruses detected.

The paper characterizes neural population heterogeneity during motor tasks using HF-LFPs and finds that heterogeneity varies by region and state, improving motor decoding.

This study shows that mRNA vaccines can prime and mature ultrarare HIV bnAb precursor B cells in NHPs, with improved affinity using a modified immunogen.

This study finds that in wild baboon groups, larger groups have less affiliative behavior and more social conflict compared to smaller groups.

The paper examines the lifespan trajectory of striatal dopamine availability in primates and rodents, finding a delayed peak in adulthood and age-dependent modulation by GABA and acetylcholine.

This study characterizes the antigenic features of a divergent dengue virus type 2 strain, showing it has unique neutralization determinants distinct from other DENV2 strains.

This paper introduces a fibrous optofluidic probe for measuring blood oxygenation and flow velocity in vessels, demonstrating its use in rabbit and canine models.

This study evaluates the effects of Lactobacillus postbiotic supplementation on intestinal permeability, nutrient digestibility, and gut microbiome/metabolome profiles in aging cats, finding no effect on permeability but improved nutrient digestibility and sequence-dependent microbiome changes.

This study identifies cortical substrates involved in modulating automatic orofacial behaviors in macaques, showing distinct neural dynamics for voluntary and automatic actions.

This study uses deep brain stimulation to enhance corticospinal output in monkeys with CST lesions, improving arm and hand function and fine motor control.

The paper develops a 30-marker spectral flow cytometry panel to profile immune cell subsets in African green monkey and baboon PBMCs, focusing on T cell subsets, cytokines, and activation markers.

This study trains baboons on geometric concepts and finds they can learn geometric properties but do not show human-like sensitivity to geometric regularity in shape recognition tasks.

This study identifies novel diagnostic antigens for coccidioidomycosis using high-dimensional peptide serology, showing improved accuracy in distinguishing infected individuals from controls.

This study evaluates a M4-selective PAM in nonhuman primates, showing broad cognitive and motivational improvements without adverse side effects.

This study characterizes the olfactory bulb anatomy of the Asian small-clawed otter, revealing a highly developed main olfactory bulb and a small, neurochemically distinct accessory olfactory bulb.

This study evaluates the ecotoxicological effects of transition metal-containing LDH nanoparticles on maize, tomato, and C. elegans, finding low phytotoxicity but greater toxicity in the nematode.

This study identifies two novel H3 histone variants in Hofstenia miamia that destabilize nucleosomes and promote chromatin accessibility during regeneration.

The paper investigates how neural circuits in the primate frontal cortex support compositional generalization by separating computations into spatial and temporal components and identifying biases when these components are misaligned.

This study shows that northern juvenile Chinook salmon have high thermal tolerance and plasticity, with warm acclimation improving heat tolerance and cardiac function.
