Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

The Conventional and Breakthrough Tool for the Study of L-Glutamate Transporters
In our recent report, we clarified the direct interaction between the excitatory amino acid transporter (EAAT) 1/2 and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) by applying electrophysiological and molecular biological techniques to Xenopus oocytes.

Summary Cellular ion and pH homeostasis are crucial factors affecting and regulating metabolic reactions, protein stability, signalling and transport mechanisms. To balance intracellular ion concentrations, organisms need to constantly sense and respond to both the extracellular environment and cell compartments' requests.

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

Abstract figure legend Propionate in the fetal circulation is thought to originate from fermentation of dietary fibre by the maternal gut microbiota. However, the mechanism of transplacental transport has remained unclear. Here, we measured propionate permeability using a placental barrier model generated by differentiating human placental trophoblast ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Pitfalls and missing links in current understanding of 4D genomes
Abstract The spatial and temporal organization of the genome—collectively termed the 4D genome—is pivotal for regulating gene expression, maintaining genome stability, and guiding development. The convergence of chromosome conformation capture technologies, super‐resolution microscopy, and single‐cell epigenomics has transformed our understanding of ...

Artificial sensory and motor nervous systems enabled by bioinspired nanowire heterostructure synapse
A p‐i‐n heterostructured junction synaptic transistor was fabricated, composed of poly(3‐hexylthiophene‐2,5‐diyl) nanowire thin‐film/poly(methyl methacrylate)/ZnO nanowires (PZJ STs), which can emulate biological sensory and motor nervous systems.
