A conserved glucagon signaling pathway links high-fat diet-induced metabolic imbalance to cardiac arrhythmia through hormone-producing cells and heart-innervating neurons that regulate rhythmicity.

This manuscript describing the phenotypes associated with loss and gain of RVCL-S documents important findings that have practical implications. Although the data and methods are solid and support ...

The results include a comparison between two different basis functions for temporal selectivity and how these generate different predictions for the dynamics of neural populations. The conclusions are ...

Drosophila mojavensis, and propose that sleep at one stage of an animal's life might anticipate needs at a future stage. The results fit well with this model, but are correlative in nature. The work ...

This important work identifies phlda2 as a specific marker for primordial cardiomyocytes in the adult zebrafish heart and demonstrates their essential role in myocardial morphogenesis and coronary ...

This important study demonstrates that a peri-nuclear actomyosin network, present in some types of human cells, facilitates kinetochore-spindle attachment of chromosomes in unfavorable locations - ...

A study suggests that the integration of geomagnetic and visual cues help some of the world’s most invasive moth species orient themselves during their seasonal migration.

This important study implicates that changes in cell regulation may contribute to the evolution of multicellularity. The evidence supporting the conclusions is convincing, with rigorous methods used ...

This study presents a valuable finding on the mutational order for common alterations in colorectal cancer. The evidence of in vitro growth assays comparing mutations is solid, although inclusion of ...

To address this, the researchers used a flight simulator system that allowed individual moths to fly in any direction while attached to a tether ( Dreyer et al., 2021 ). The researchers were able to ...

Researchers link neuroanatomical features to social tolerance in macaque monkeys and provide a framework for investigating the impact of social environments on brain development.

Macaque’s social tolerance grades, through its underlying cognitive demands, shape subcortical structures volumes.
