The cochlear hook region detects harmonics beyond the canonical hearing range

The paper shows that the cochlear hook region in guinea pigs detects ultrasound harmonics beyond the typical hearing range through resonance and nonlinear amplification.

MPL36, a major plasminogen (PLG) receptor in pathogenic Leptospira, has an essential role during infection

This study identifies MPL36 as a major plasminogen receptor in pathogenic Leptospira, showing its role in virulence through plasmin generation and host cell interaction.
