Our data confirm that, although significant placebo and nocebo effects were found on days 1 and 8, the nocebo effect was consistently stronger. Both effects were primarily influenced by the most ...

Cell crowding causes high-grade breast cancer cells to become more invasive by activating a molecular switch that causes the cells to shrink and spread.

The human brain is thought to constantly predict future words during language processing. Recently, a new approach to investigating linguistic predictions emerged which aims to capture predictive ...

This valuable investigation provides new and solid evidence for a specific cognitive deficit in cerebellar degeneration patients. The authors use three tasks that modulate complexity and error ...

Orbitofrontal cortex and hippocampus reinstate representations of causal choices to associate with delayed outcomes, and the frontal pole supports this credit assignment process by maintaining pending ...

The capacity to remember temporal relationships between different events is essential to episodic memory, but little is currently known about its underlying mechanisms. We performed time-lapse imaging ...

This valuable study shows that locomotion-related modulations in the mouse visual cortex are not uniform but primarily affect neurons in muscarinic receptor-negative patches, which receive projections ...

Deciphering the gut biome's, including helminths', influence on human trained immunity will unlock novel immunotherapies harnessing the immune reprogramming potential of their secreted factors and ...

This important work presents a stochastic branching process model of tumour-immune coevolution, incorporating stochastic antigenic mutation accumulation and escape within the cancer cell population.

This study provides valuable insights into how auditory stimuli influence the temporal dynamics of visual perception by modulating brain rhythms (oscillations) in the alpha band. The authors present ...

Inherited retinal degenerations (IRDs) constitute a group of clinically and genetically diverse vision-impairing disorders. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP), the most common form of IRD, is characterized by ...

This important study advances our understanding of genome annotations for chiton genomes. It provides a solid estimation of syntentic relationships for the chromosomes of the four new genomes plus an ...
