A secondary stress signaling pathway in the response to optic axon injury is an unexpectedly strong contributor to both neurodegeneration and axon regenerative potential.

A proposed function of TADs is to contribute to gene regulation by promoting chromatin interactions within a TAD and by suppressing interactions between TADs. Here, we directly probe the ...

The trial-to-trial variability of neuronal responses and the correlated response variability among neurons are modulated by visual stimulus size in a manner that depends on cortical layer, suggesting ...

A detailed annotation of anatomical brain structures (some novel) of the spider Uloborus diversus is provided based on a ...

Human MAP1LC3B (LC3B) binds proteins involved in autophagy and other cellular processes using a degenerate four-residue short linear motif known as the LC3-interacting region (LIR). Biochemical and ...

Polygenic indices related to the best-established social, psychological, and behavioural mortality risk phenotypes had the strongest associations with mortality.

Mechanically activated (MA) ion channels convert physical forces into electrical signals, and are essential for eukaryotic physiology. Despite their importance, few bona-fide MA channels have been ...

Brain slice electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, and in vivo two-photon calcium imaging identify circuit dysfunction and epilepsy mechanism in a Kcnc1-A421V/+ mouse model of developmental and ...

High-throughput neutralisation tests could lead to a better understanding of the evolution of human influenza.
