Mastication while rested does not improve sustained attention in healthy participants conducting short-duration cognitive tasks

This study investigates whether mastication improves sustained attention in rested healthy participants during short cognitive tasks, finding no significant improvements.

An immunohistochemical atlas of necroptotic pathway expression

The paper develops automated immunohistochemistry protocols to detect necroptotic pathway proteins in mouse and human tissues, revealing heterogeneity and disease-related changes in expression.

MLKL deficiency protects against low-grade, sterile inflammation in aged mice

This study shows that MLKL deficiency reduces age-related sterile inflammation in mice by preserving lymphocyte levels and reducing inflammatory infiltrates in tissues.

Extensions of mean-field approximations for environmentally-transmitted pathogen networks

The paper develops ODE models for environmentally-transmitted pathogens by relaxing assumptions of homogeneity and independence, showing improved accuracy and identifying potential solutions for instability.

T cell migration requires ion and water influx to regulate actin polymerization

This study shows that chemokine-induced T cell migration requires water entry at the leading edge to facilitate actin polymerization.

Compensatory ion transport buffers daily protein rhythms to regulate osmotic balance and cellular physiology

The paper shows that circadian protein rhythms are compensated by ion transport to maintain osmotic balance and cellular function in mammalian cells and cardiomyocytes.

CRYPTOCHROME suppresses the circadian proteome and promotes protein homeostasis

This study compares the circadian proteome and phosphoproteome of wild-type and CRY-deficient fibroblast cells, finding increased circadian-regulated proteins and stress sensitivity in CRY-deficient cells.

Toward a model-free feedback control synthesis for treating acute inflammation -- A mathematical perspective

The paper proposes a model-free feedback control approach for inflammation treatment, using simulations to demonstrate its effectiveness in managing patient-specific responses.

Vertically transmitted rhabdoviruses are found across three insect families and have dynamic interactions with their hosts

The paper identifies vertically transmitted rhabdoviruses in three insect species and shows they spread rapidly through host populations with high maternal transmission rates.
