In mammals, action potentials fired by rapidly adapting mechanosensitive afferents are known to reliably time lock to the cycles of a vibration. How and where along the ascending neuraxis is the peripheral afferent temporal code transformed into a rate code are currently not clear.

Binding of anti-PEG antibodies to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) on the surface of PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in vitro and in rats can activate complement and cause the rapid release of doxorubicin from the liposome interior.

They found that while most annelids have conserved genome structures, Clitellates, including leeches and earthworms, are entirely different. The team developed a rearrangement index, showing that leeches and earthworms possess the most highly rearranged genomes among bilaterians.
