Genital microbiota in infertile couples

This study examines the genital microbiota of infertile couples to assess its association with fertility treatment outcomes.

Multiomic profiling of medulloblastoma reveals subtype-specific targetable alterations at the proteome and N-glycan level

This study identifies subtype-specific proteome and N-glycan alterations in medulloblastoma that may serve as therapeutic targets.

Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and IgA antibodies in COVID-19 convalescent plasma do not facilitate antibody-dependent enhance of viral infection.

This study investigates whether antibodies in convalescent plasma enhance SARS-CoV-2 infection and finds no evidence of antibody-dependent enhancement by IgG or IgA isotypes.

An in vivo reporter for tracking lipid droplet dynamics in transparent zebrafish

The paper develops a transgenic reporter to track lipid droplet dynamics in zebrafish and melanoma cells, revealing nitric oxide's role in regulating lipid droplets in both contexts.

IFITM proteins promote SARS-CoV-2 infection and are targets for virus inhibition

This study shows that IFITM proteins are required for SARS-CoV-2 infection and can be targeted to inhibit viral entry and replication.

In vitro model for resistance in oncogene-dependent tumors at the limit of radiological detectability

The paper develops an in vitro model to study resistance mechanisms in oncogene-dependent tumors and shows that combining drugs targeting multiple resistance pathways can inhibit resistant and drug-tolerant cell growth.

Real-time monitoring of mechanical cues in the regenerative niche reveal dynamic strain magnitudes that enhance bone repair

This study uses an implantable strain sensor to monitor mechanical cues during bone repair in rats, showing that dynamic strain magnitudes correlate with healing status.

Molecular and transcriptional structure of the petal and leaf circadian clock in Petunia hybrida

This study characterizes the circadian clock structure in petal and leaf tissues of Petunia hybrida, revealing tissue-specific gene expression patterns and evolutionary differences.

The Emergence of Egalitarianism in a Model of Early Human Societies

This paper presents a model showing how egalitarianism emerges in early human societies through language-driven coalition formation, leading to a phase transition from dominance hierarchies to power-sharing arrangements.
