The Genetic Wiring of Plant Trichomes: From Initiation to Fate Specification
Plant trichomes are not just simple hairs but metabolic powerhouses shaped by complex genetic programs. While the MYB‐bHLH‐WD40 module is well studied in Arabidopsis, recent findings reveal that HD‐Zip IV transcription factors drive multicellular and glandular trichome development through dose‐dependent mechanisms.

The Role of Sex Hormones in Inducing Maternal Uterine Remodeling and Vasodilation During Pregnancy [PDF]
Uterine vascular adaptations such as vessel growth and vasodilation are needed to facilitate the more than 10-fold increase of uteroplacental blood flow (UPBF) during pregnancy.

Elevated Hippocampal Cholinergic Neurostimulating Peptide precursor protein (HCNP-pp) mRNA in the amygdala in major depression [PDF]
The amygdala is innervated by the cholinergic system and is involved in major depressive disorder (MDD). Evidence suggests a hyper-activate cholinergic system in MDD.

The Gut Microbiota Regulates Motor Deficits via Butyrate in a Gnal+/− Mouse Model of DYT25 Dystonia
The present study provides compelling evidence for a modulatory role of the gut microbiota in the pathology of DYT25 dystonia, and butyrate supplementation alleviates the motor deficits of dystonia in Gnal+/− mice. Abstract Dystonia is the third most common movement disorder, following essential tremor and Parkinson's disease. The underlying mechanisms

18F‐Radiopharmaceutical Diversification Enabled by Deaminative Cross‐Electrophile Couplings
A general Ni‐mediated (C)sp2–(C)sp3 cross‐coupling expedites access to 18F‐radiopharmaceuticals, essential for positron emission tomography imaging and drug discovery. This late‐stage diversification approach was implemented across three user‐friendly automated protocols affording 18F‐radiotracers in sufficient quantities for imaging.

Fever Inspiration: Precision Engineering for Safe and Systemic Immunotherapy
This review examines engineered fever therapy (EFT) as a novel cancer treatment, harnessing fever's immunomodulatory effects to enhance systemic immune responses. It explores molecular mechanisms, advances in nanotechnology‐driven thermal immunotherapy, and a bioengineered framework for precise, safe fever induction. The paper evaluates EFT's potential
