The neurogenesis rates of some olfactory sensory neuron subtypes are selectively accelerated in mice that are exposed to odors that stimulate those subtypes.

Trained immunity is a form of innate immune cell memory that is being developed as a novel immunotherapeutic approach for cancer treatment.

Experiments with tools designed to detect DNA damage reveal unique and conserved features of telomeres in cancer cells.

This valuable study presents a novel approach to enhance the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) by genetically modifying their glycogen synthesis pathway, resulting in increased ...

A new state-of-the-art diagnostic test for animal African trypanosomiasis could detect sentinels of infection in domestic animals and aid control efforts.

During cell-to-cell spread, HIV-1 protease activity triggers CARD8 inflammasome activation and IL-1β release from macrophages, which may contribute to inflammation and chronic immune activation.

This important study demonstrates the significance of incorporating biological constraints in training neural networks to develop models that make accurate predictions under novel conditions. By ...

The enzyme arginase-II has an important role in cardiac aging, and blocking it could help hearts stay young longer.

Fingertip tactile neurons collectively encode the skin's viscoelastic state alongside current touch, potentially enabling the brain to better interpret forces during manipulation.

This important study investigates frequency-dependent effects of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) on bladder function in healthy humans and, through a computational model, shows that low ...

This useful manuscript addresses a stability issue for long-term chronically implanted array recordings and electrolytic lesioning, which is relevant to both basic science and translational research.

CPGs. Their model shows that cell-type-specific connectivity and a dominant inhibitory drive could underlie rhythm generation. Excitatory input could act to enhance the frequency range of these ...
