This study links spinal cord stimulation periodicity to artificial sensory perception by identifying spike-count regimes that shape detection and discrimination behavior in rodents.

The paper identifies environmental factors and growth stages affecting fibre yield and quality in rain-grown cotton using statistical models and field data.

The paper analyzes allopolyploidization events in Brettanomyces bruxellensis using graph pangenomes to identify structural variants and their functional impacts.

The paper investigates how combinations of Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 channels affect nociceptor excitability, showing that their synergistic effects vary across neuronal subtypes.

This study shows that increased mitochondrial metabolism in Down syndrome iPSCs impairs neuroectoderm commitment by reducing ciliation, and this effect can be reversed by inhibiting mitochondrial calcium uptake.

The paper generates high-quality chromosome-level genomes for three Plasmodium species from natural infections, improving understanding of their biology and evolution.

This study shows that early paroxetine exposure in zebrafish embryos causes transient apoptosis, delayed neurogenesis, and brain remodeling linked to ASD-like social behavior impairments.

The paper examines immune suppressive gene expression in normalized breast cancer endothelial cells and finds similarities with healthy human endothelial cells.

This study uses simulation-based inference to quantify compensatory mechanisms in a spiking neuronal network model under hyperexcitability conditions.

This study shows ADARs prevent RNAi from targeting self-produced dsRNA by reducing siRNA production and interfering with RNAi processing in C. elegans.

Decoder-FFPE-seq improves sensitivity and resolution for spatial transcriptomics in FFPE tissues, enabling analysis of rare genes and tumor microenvironments.

This study uses EPR and ENDOR spectroscopy along with DFT to show how protein scaffolds alter the electronic structure of a ketyl radical intermediate in TPP-dependent radical biocatalysis, affecting enzyme reactivity.

This study identifies HpaAB as an active chromosome segregation system in Haloferax volcanii, essential for equipositioning replicons and maintaining genomic stability.

This study evaluates ten excitability metrics from MEG data to show cortical excitability is multidimensional with distinct spatial and functional patterns.

The paper shows PVNOT neurons drive transitions from rest to thermogenesis and behavioral arousal in both social and non-social contexts in mice.
