The paper shows that interhemispheric remodeling, a precursor to corpus callosum formation, is conserved in non-mammalian amniotes and plays a role in forming similar structures in reptiles and birds.

The paper shows that an ancestral LTR retrotransposon insertion in the common ancestor of Euarchontoglires drives lineage-specific genomic imprinting of ZDBF2 through post-fertilization transcription initiation.

The paper identifies PKA and phosphatases as regulators of sleep-wake cycles through genetic and functional studies in mice.

This study identifies EP4 and fibulin-1 as key regulators of vascular intimal hyperplasia through VSMC proliferation, suggesting EP4 antagonists or fibulin-1 downregulation as potential therapeutic strategies.

This study shows that postnatal xanthine metabolism regulates cardiac regeneration by linking redox state to cardiomyocyte proliferation and regenerative potential in mice.

This study identifies CaMKII-dependent activity of cortical parvalbumin neurons as essential for homeostatic sleep rebound following prolonged wakefulness.

This study shows that CaMKIIβ phosphorylation regulates sleep duration and steps in mammals by modulating kinase activity in excitatory neurons.

This study shows that loss of CNOT9 leads to embryonic lethality due to impaired gastrulation, with defects in Lefty2 mRNA decay and cytoplasmic interactions with miRNA-RISC.
