The steroid hormone dafachronic acid may carry the effects of reduced mTOR activity between tissues to coordinate metabolism and longevity across the body.

Bovine mammary tissue can support infection and replication of diverse influenza A viruses and may provide an environment in which different viral strains can co-infect cells.

This important study uses the brain endocast of a ~1.9-million-year-old hominin fossil from Kenya, attributed to genus Homo, to show that the organization of the Broca's area in members of early Homo ...

Our recent work characterized the movement of single blood cells within the retinal vasculature (Joseph et al. 2019) using adaptive optics ophthalmoscopy. Here, we apply this technique to the context ...

Crystal structures of γ-protocadherin cell-cell recognition dimers reveal the determinants of clustered protocadherin homophilic specificity and cis interaction region structures alongside mutagenesis ...
