The study provides valuable technical advances to generate and isolate neural rosettes. The technique is robust, as indicated by both reviewers. The evidence is solid, as shown in orthogonal ...

A time-course RNA-seq analysis of muscle remodeling reveals transcriptional dynamics independent of autophagy and highlights the significance of BNIP3 in mitochondrial degradation in vivo.

Forces generated by the actin cytoskeleton are highly dependent on the structural properties of molecular motors called myosin.

Genetic studies reveal that polyunsaturated lipids do more than simply increase the fluidity of the cell membrane.

Several studies have now demonstrated that trained immunity occurs in the airways to several pathogens and products, while its utility is yet to be determined.

Genetic analyses in zebrafish reveal a new role for the Meteorin protein family in the left-right asymmetry patterning during embryonic vertebrate development.

This study reports important negative results by showing that genetic removal of the RNA-binding protein PTBP1 in astrocytes is not sufficient to induce their conversion into neurons, challenging ...

The sense of smell is crucial for insect larvae not only to find a suitable food source but also for finding safe spaces which are free of their natural enemies.
