This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

A new computational model improves estimation of Granger connectivity by removing spurious effects of external inputs, and estimation of linear encoding models by removing spurious effects of ...

CCR4 expression in Tregs is critical for limiting proinflammatory Th1 cell-mediated immune responses and atherosclerosis by maintaining the suppressive and migratory functions of Tregs.

This article makes a valuable contribution to the field by uncovering a molecular mechanism for miRNA intracellular retention, mediated by the interaction of PCBP2, SYNCRIP, and specific miRNA motifs.

Insects possess a remarkable ability to develop innate immune memory, and the mechanisms underlying this process are becoming a central topic in innate immunity research.

Gene fusions are common mutations that have been linked to several types of cancer, most notably chronic myelogenous leukemia, which is a result of the BCR gene on chromosome 22 fusing with the ABL ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

A strategy that analyzes the structural properties of RNA could help identify regions that are promising targets for antiviral drugs.

Large-scale microscopy combined with tissue clearing and expansion enables nanoscale imaging of centimeter scale specimens.

This important study uses long-term behavioural observations to understand the factors that influence female-on-female aggression in gorilla social groups. The evidence supporting the claims is ...

This is an important study that combines replications of findings and novel detailed MRI investigations to assess the impact of environmental enrichment and maternal behavior on mice brain structure ...

CD131 contributes to intestinal inflammation in ulcerative colitis, possibly by promoting the infiltration of macrophages, while targeting CD131 might potentially be a treatment remedy for ulcerative ...
