New gene-editing techniques are shedding light on how hormones impact social behavior in animals and possibly, humans. by Helen Kiik, Saumya Ramanayake, Michi Miura, Yuetsu Tanaka, Anat Melamed, Charles R. M. Bangham The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) transactivator protein Tax has pleiotropic functions in the host cell affecting cell-cycle regulation, DNA damage response pathways[…] by Gayathri Manokaran, Michelle D. Audsley, Haruka Funakoda, Cassandra T. David, Katherine A. Garnham, Stephen M. Rawlinson, Celine Deffrasnes, Naoto Ito, Gregory W. Moseley Antagonism of the interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral state is critical to infection by rabies virus (RABV) and[…] by Paidashe Hove, Swetha Madesh, Arathy Nair, Deborah Jaworski, Huitao Liu, Jonathan Ferm, Michael D. Kleinhenz, Margaret A. Highland, Andrew K. Curtis, Johann F. Coetzee, Susan M. Noh, Ying Wang, Dominica Genda, Roman R. Ganta Tick-borne Anaplasma species are obligate,[…] by Alexandre Martel, Bradley Laflamme, Clare Breit-McNally, Pauline Wang, Fabien Lonjon, Darrell Desveaux, David S. Guttman The bacterial plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae requires type III secreted effectors (T3SEs) for pathogenesis. However, a major facet of plant immunity entails the recognition[…] by Hector S. Alvarez-Manzo, Robert K. Davidson, Jasper Van Cauwelaert de Wyels, Katherine L. Cotten, Benjamin Nguyen, Melody Xiao, Zeyu Zhu, Jon Anthony, Tim van Opijnen, Kimberly Michele Davis Antibiotic tolerance is typically associated with a phenotypic change within a[…] Life-like organ replicas -- so-called 3D organoids -- are a good way to research disease processes. A team has now presented a kind of blueprint for such a model of the cervix. Researchers have equipped gut bacteria with data logger functionality as a way of monitoring which genes are active in the bacteria. These microorganisms could one day offer a noninvasive means of diagnosing disease or assessing the impact of a diet[…] A vaccine for eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV), and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) was found to be safe, well-tolerated and induced a neutralizing antibody response in adult volunteers, according to newly published results from[…] A new study finds that two common herpesviruses may contribute to impaired glucose metabolism and an increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) among infected individuals.
