Important Research

 
 
 
 
A pulmonary innate lymphoid cell-driven serotonergic neuroimmune axis orchestrates airway hyperreactivity and cough hypersensitivity
 
Asthma is a heterogeneous disease characterized by airway hyperreactivity (AHR) and chronic cough, exacerbated by respiratory viruses or allergen exposure.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Maternal redd1 mRNA decline triggers mTORC1 activation during the blastula-gastrula transition in zebrafish embryos
 
These findings reveal a transient phase of mTORC1 suppression in early zebrafish embryos and demonstrate that select maternal and zygotic mRNAs bypass this regulation to ensure proper developmental progression.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Microbial Insights Reveal Biogeochemical Shifts During Rare Mixing in a Meromictic Lake
 
By integrating temporal, depth-resolved, and genome-resolved perspectives, this study reveals how a meromictic lake can regain ecological resilience following a major natural disturbance and provides new insight into how climate-driven changes in lake stratification may influence aquatic ecosystems and biogeochemical cycling.
