Repeated mild traumatic brain injury does not affect sleep or epileptiform activity one-month post-injury in a knock-in mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

This study investigates the effects of repeated mild traumatic brain injury on sleep, epileptiform activity, and Alzheimer's disease pathology in a knock-in mouse model one month post-injury.

Evolutionary biomechanics of maximum running speed in spiders (Araneae)

This study examines how body size, ancestry, and leg morphology influence maximum running speed in spiders across 258 species.

Repetitive mild traumatic brain injury causes neuronal damage in the APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer's disease without an enduring impact on amyloid pathology, sleep, or epileptiform activity

Functional Characterization of 123 Genes from Mycobacteriophage LeBron Uncovers Cytotoxic Gene Families in Cluster L1

This study functionally characterizes 123 genes from mycobacteriophage LeBron, identifying 39 cytotoxic genes, including novel families, and highlights functional conservation across phage clusters.

A simple circuit to sustain intact tumor microenvironments for complex drug interrogations

The paper develops a perfusion circuit system to preserve tumor microenvironments in 3D patient-derived tumor models for up to 48 hours, enabling complex drug interrogations.

Evaluating the epizootic and zoonotic threat of an H7N9 low pathogenicity avian influenza virus (LPAIV) variant associated with enhanced pathogenicity in turkeys

This study evaluates the increased pathogenicity and zoonotic potential of an H7N9 LPAIV variant in turkeys, showing enhanced virulence and transmission risks.
