Gaze patterns during value-based choice may reflect post-decision processes rather than a direct causal influence of attention on preference formation.

MgIG directly targets HSD11B1 to alleviate alcohol-associated liver disease by suppressing the HSD11B1–SREBP2–IDI1 pathway, thereby reducing hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and apoptosis.

In contrast to differential expression-based methods, which evaluate and select individual marker genes, CellCover identifies panels of genes that function together to define cell types.

Cholecystokinin release from CA3 inputs to CA1 links local excitatory circuitry to hippocampal plasticity and spatial memory.

Long-term live imaging and tracking approaches reveal a coordination between excitatory and inhibitory synapse assembly, despite continual spatiotemporal dynamics.

A unified structural model of IRE1 activation reconciles conflicting sensing theories by characterizing specific peptide-binding sites and the mechanism by which BiP regulates oligomerization during the...

Invasive Lantana camara exhibits strong genetic structure, unlike many invasive species, likely driven by predominant self-fertilization across its invasive range rather than the presence of multiple...

Large-scale synthetic datasets enable construction of digital twins of individual human excitable cells from a single voltage-clamp recording.

Through low levels of extracellular ATP, EPEC induces small, rapid and coordinated Ca2+ responses in epithelial cells, a yet unreported pattern, that down-regulate inflammation at the onset of infection.

Humans adapt learning rates on both a fast and a slow time scale, and the central orbitofrontal cortex may represent the slow time scale.

Double-knockout of PKMζ and the other atypical PKC, PKCι/λ, reveals that, without PKMζ for maintenance, PKCι/λ becomes persistently active to sustain hippocampal late-LTP and long-term memory.
