A combination of genetic fate-mapping and parabiotic experiments reveals the chronological expansion of yolk-sac-derived renal tissue-resident macrophages with age by cellular proliferation and recruitment from circulating progenitors.
Current evidence does not suggest adverse effects of ACE inhibitors or ARBs in COVID-19 patients and, to the contrary, discontinuing these drugs in these patients may potentially be harmful.
Eliminating the calcium-binding protein Doc2b does not alter transmission at a mature synapse under physiological conditions, counter to the prevailing view of Doc2b based on cultured neurons.
Computational analyses quantitatively account for optical refraction at air-water interfaces to enable visual neuroscientists to present distortion-free stimuli to underwater animals.

Lifelong HAO1 knockout was safe and without clinical phenotype in an identified healthy woman, de-risking a rare disease therapeutic approach through the power of naturally occurring human genetic variation.
The axonal cytoskeletal contains an actomyosin-II network that controls circumferential axonal contraction and expansion with the potential of regulating fluctuations in diameter during action potential firing, trafficking, and degeneration.
The ability to smoothly perceive the environment across saccades without disturbing retinal motion sensations is generated by eye movement contingent habituation.
