Microfluidics experiments and simulations show that magnetotactic bacteria are adapted to the geomagnetic field strength for optimal navigation in sediment environments.

This useful study explores the role of RAP2A in asymmetric cell division (ACD) regulation in glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs), drawing parallels to Drosophila ACD mechanisms and proposing that an ...

The study by Li et al. provides fundamental findings supported by convincing evidence that they defined cellular reprogramming of androgen receptor in neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). The ...

Specific host factors, such as immune cell activity, sex hormones and microbiota composition, influence the ability of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria to colonize the gut of mice.

A new study finds that nocebo effects, where people expect a negative outcome from treatment, are more powerful and persistent than placebo effects, with implications for patient-practitioner ...

BP1 is a key player in DNA repair and together with BRCA1 regulate selection of DNA double strand break repair mechanisms. Localization of DNA repair factors to sites of DNA damage by 53BP1 is ...

Researchers have shown that activation of the protein YAP, which helps tumours grow, differs between two- and three-dimensional culture models, pointing to more predictive systems for testing cancer ...

This study presents a valuable finding on the role of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitors (SLPI) in developing Lyme disease in mice infected with Borrelia burgdorferi. The evidence supporting the ...

This important study provides compelling insights into the differential impact of intrinsic and synaptic conductances on circuit robustness using computational models of the pyloric network from the ...

Version of Record: This is the final version of the article. The paper by Fournier et al. investigates the sensitivity of neural circuits to changes in intrinsic and synaptic conductances. The authors ...

This manuscript demonstrates that Oct4 overexpression synergizes with Notch inhibition (Rbpj knockout) to promote the conversion of adult murine Müller glia (MG) into bipolar cells. These findings are ...

Revised: This Reviewed Preprint has been revised by the authors in response to the previous round of peer review; the eLife assessment and the public reviews have been updated where necessary by the ...
