  text: The cerebral cortex consists of immense numbers of neuronal and glial cell-types
    derived from radial glial progenitor (RGP) cells. How RGPs generate appropriate
    quantities of distinct cortical cell-types to safeguard a brain of correct size,
    is not well understood. However, genetic aberration in human, including mutations
    in PTEN, lead to cortical malformation such as macrocephaly, albeit with unknown
    etiology. Here we utilized Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers (MADM)-based clonal
    analysis and single cell phenotyping to decipher the role of Pten in neurogenic
    and gliogenic RGP lineage progression during cortical ontogeny. While neurogenic
    RGP lineage progression and projection neuron production was moderately altered
    in the absence of Pten, cortical astrocyte production was drastically increased.
    Through genetic epistasis experiments we show that the loss of Pten uncouples
    astrocyte generation from essential growth factor signaling hubs, funneling into
    MAPK. Collectively, our results suggest that Pten regulates RGP lineage progression
    with distinct sequential functions in cortical projection neurogenesis and astrocyte
    production to ensure the emergence of a correctly-sized cerebral cortex.

  text: Hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons (PNs) form the largest autoassociative network
    in the mammalian brain. Whether CA3–CA3 recurrent connectivity is genetically
    preconfigured or environmentally shaped during ongoing memory storage is currently
    unknown. To address this question, we performed multicellular patch-clamp-based
    circuit mapping of up to eight CA3 PNs in the mouse hippocampus at multiple postnatal
    time points (P7–8, P18–25, and P45–50). Here, we show that the hippocampal CA3
    network undergoes a developmental transformation from local, dense, and random
    connectivity to a distributed, sparse, and structured configuration. Thus, sparse
    and structured connectivity may emerge via experience-dependent mechanisms. In
    parallel, the strength of single synapses is downregulated; single synaptic events
    are sufficient to trigger postsynaptic spiking early in development, whereas spatial
    summation of several inputs is required at later time points. Biologically inspired
    models of memory storage by Hebbian synaptic plasticity and retrieval via pattern
    completion suggest that developmental changes improve specific aspects of memory
    storage and retrieval. Our results imply a developmental transformation of the
    neuronal code and the memory functions in the hippocampal CA3 network.</jats:p>

  text: The global rise of antimicrobial resistance has intensified the search for
    new microbial metabolites from underexplored environments and taxonomic groups.
    Extreme and geographically isolated habitats such as Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems
    represent promising reservoirs of biosynthetic diversity, particularly among rare
    and difficult-to-cultivate actinomycetes that may produce chemically diverse metabolites
    with potential biotechnological applications. Here, we report the characterization
    of kineochelins, a previously undescribed group of siderophores produced by the
    Antarctic isolate Actinokineospora sp. UV203, representing a difficult-to-cultivate
    actinomycete lineage. Structural elucidation revealed a set of closely related
    congeners with a mixed-ligand architecture consistent with metal-chelating activity.
    Genome mining combined with transcriptomic analysis identified a dedicated nonribosomal
    peptide synthetase-encoding biosynthetic gene cluster responsible for kineochelin
    production. Comparative genomic analyses indicated that, although kineochelin
    biosynthetic genes share limited similarity with known mixed-ligand siderophores,
    their gene content and organization differ substantially, suggesting a distinct
    biosynthetic lineage. Functional characterization of the culture supernatant and
    an enriched pre-purified kineochelin fraction demonstrated strong and selective
    iron chelation, with high affinity for ferric and ferrous iron. Crude culture
    extracts inhibited the growth of bacterial strains isolated from the same Antarctic
    environment, indicating that kineochelins may contribute to iron-mediated microbial
    competition. In addition, kineochelin-enriched pre-purified fractions showed moderate
    selective inhibitory activity against the opportunistic yeast pathogen Nakaseomyces
    glabratus and a clinical isolate of Saccharomyces cerevisiae associated with invasive
    infection. These findings expand the chemical and biosynthetic diversity known
    within the genus Actinokineospora and demonstrate that Antarctic rare actinomycetes
    represent valuable sources of previously unexplored natural products. The discovery
    of kineochelins highlights the potential of genome-guided exploration of polar
    microorganisms for identifying bioactive metabolites with relevance for antimicrobial
    discovery and biotechnology.

  text: Single-stranded, helically folded aromatic oligoamides bearing anionic phosphonate
    side chains have been shown to bind to some DNA-binding proteins better than DNA
    itself. However, these DNA mimic foldamers have until now mainly consisted of
    a single repeat motif, like a poly(dA:dT) DNA duplex, and contained limited sequence
    information. Here, we introduce new monomers designed to display different chemical
    functionalities in the major groove of the DNA mimics. Four new Fmoc-protected
    amino acid monomers have been synthesized and incorporated into oligomers. Sixteen
    foldamer sequences were prepared on solid phase. Their conformations in solution
    and in the solid state and their conformational dynamics were investigated using
    nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism, molecular modeling, and X-ray
    crystallography. The results show that three of the four new monomers behaved
    as designed and that their introduction enhances the conformational dynamics of
    the DNA mimic foldamers. In a fourth case, conformational behavior proved to be
    more complex than expected. The modified sequences retained the ability to bind
    to the bacterial histone-like protein HU. These results showcase design strategies
    to manipulate large molecular biomimetics in which not only side chains but also
    main chain components are varied. The new monomers pave the way to complex DNA
    mimic foldamer sequences targeting proteins that recognize sequence-selective
    DNA-binding proteins such as transcription factors or restriction enzymes.

  text: Auxin, primarily indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is a central regulator of growth
    and development in land plants, but its physiological role in chlorophyte algae
    remains unclear. Here, we show that exogenous IAA modulates growth in Chlorella
    sorokiniana, Chlorella variabilis, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in a concentration-dependent
    manner. Low IAA concentrations promoted growth by accelerating the onset of cell
    division without affecting cell size, whereas higher concentrations inhibited
    proliferation. Radiotracer assays showed that all three species take up and release
    IAA across the plasma membrane through a combination of passive diffusion and
    energy-dependent, saturable processes. Competition by excess unlabeled natural
    and synthetic auxins further supported the presence of carrier-mediated transport
    with broad substrate recognition. Phylogenetic analyses identified potential PIN-like
    auxin exporters in chlorophytes and other non-plant eukaryotes, and structural
    modeling supported conservation of the overall PIN fold and predicted auxin-binding
    residues. However, functional assays in Xenopus laevis oocytes, tobacco BY-2 cultured
    cells, and Arabidopsis thaliana did not support a role for these proteins in directional
    auxin export. Instead, non-plant PIN homologs localized predominantly to the endoplasmic
    reticulum and showed limited or no transport activity in heterologous systems.
    Together, these findings indicate that auxin responsiveness and basic cellular
    auxin transport predate canonical PIN-mediated directional auxin export, which
    appears to be a later innovation of the streptophyte lineage.

  text: Effective immune responses rely on the efficient migration of leukocytes.
    Yet, how temperature regulates migration dynamics at the single-cell level has
    remained poorly understood. Using zebrafish embryos and mouse tissue explants,
    we found that temperature positively regulates leukocyte migration speed, exploration,
    and arrival frequencies to wounds and lymph vessels. Complementary 2D and 3D cultures
    revealed that this thermokinetic control of cell migration is conserved across
    immune cell types, independently of the 3D tissue environment. By applying precise
    (sub-)cellular temperature modulation, we identified a rapid and reversible thermo-response
    that depends on myosin II activity. Small physiological increases in temperature
    (1°C –2°C), as present during fever-like conditions, profoundly increased immune
    responses by accelerating arrival times at lymphatic vessels and tissue wounds.
    These findings identify myosin-II-dependent actomyosin contractility as a critical
    mechanical structure regulating single-cell thermo-adaptability, with physiological
    implications for tuning the speed of immune responses in vivo.

  text: Three-dimensional (3D) printing has rapidly developed from a niche hobbyist
    activity into a widely accessible and indispensable technology across multiple
    scientific disciplines. Within microscopy, optical engineering laboratories and
    imaging core facilities, 3D printing enables creating customised solutions for
    sample holders, optical components and everyday laboratory tools that traditionally
    required specialised machining. By providing rapid prototyping, low-cost production
    and reproducibility, 3D printing facilitates innovation and efficiency in facility
    operations. This article provides a perspective on the possibilities, challenges,
    and practical aspects of implementing 3D printing within microscopy core facilities.
    Instead of providing technical review about 3D printing, we focus on service organisation,
    user engagement, resource management and community-driven repositories for design
    dissemination. Our aim is to share insights with those considering the implementation
    of 3D printing as a service for developing add-on components to ease the operation
    of different aspects of the machine-park driven services and those who are managing
    advanced instrumentation within research groups.

  text: One Health initiatives are modern paradigms for research and health care practices
    in various fields. Concrete definitions of the One Health framework, however,
    remain heterogeneous, leading to conceptual problems and uncertainties in the
    application of the framework. This article discusses several approaches to the
    One Health concept, and their associated consequences, with special focus on animal
    experimentation. The first issue addressed is how One Health should be defined,
    as well as what (and who) should be considered within a One Health approach. In
    order to shed further light on this, we explore the history of animals in biomedical
    science, highlighting historical milestones in the use of animal models, as well
    as the development and current state of ethical considerations in the field of
    animal experimentation. The second issue comes with the inclusion of animal experimentation
    per se as part of the One Health concept. Therefore, particular attention is paid
    to bioethical principles and the resulting problems that can arise when applying
    them to the One Health concept. Arguments such as the idea of inequality between
    humans and non-human animals, and the premise that all actions are done for the
    benefit of humans, are raised and then used to explore the question of whether
    the One Health concept is compatible with existing bioethical principles. Based
    on the bioethical principles of protecting the environment, the biodiversity and
    biosphere, this paper seeks an inclusive perspective of the One Health concept.
    Successful solutions will be based on this concept, which embraces all living
    beings. The authors conclude that a multispecies ethics approach could help create
    a more ethical ecosystem that is aligned with the wellbeing of all life on a shared
    planet.

  text: Targeted antigen delivery to immune cells, particularly dendritic cells, has
    emerged as a promising strategy to enhance therapeutic efficacy of vaccines, while
    minimizing adverse effects associated with conventional immunization. In this
    study, we use our previously described small glycomimetic molecule that is selectively
    recognized by the Langerhans cell (LC)-specific surface receptor Langerin and
    demonstrate specific delivery of protein antigens to these specialized dendritic
    cells. Our results show that Langerin-mediated antigen delivery significantly
    enhances the immune response in vivo, resulting in increased expansion and activation
    of antigen-specific T cells, compared to immunization with unmodified antigen.
    We demonstrate the feasibility of our LC-targeted platform for immune cell-specific
    immunization with protein antigen and underscore the potential of LCs as an access
    point for next-generation vaccines and immunotherapies.

  text: For tissues to spread, they must deform while staying intact. How spreading
    tissues balance flexibility with integrity is not yet well understood. Here, we
    show that keratin intermediate filaments adapt tissue mechanical resilience to
    the stresses arising in epithelial tissues during spreading. By analyzing the
    expansion of the enveloping cell layer (EVL) over the yolk cell in zebrafish embryos
    in vivo, we find that keratin network maturation in EVL cells is promoted by stresses
    building up within the spreading tissue. Through genetic interference and tissue
    rheology experiments, complemented by a vertex model with mechanochemical feedback,
    we demonstrate that stress-induced keratin network maturation in the EVL increases
    tissue viscosity, to prevent tissue rupture. Further, keratins are required in
    the yolk cell for mechanosensitive actomyosin network contraction and flow, the
    forces pulling the EVL. These dual mechanosensitive functions of keratins enable
    a balance between pulling force production and EVL mechanical resilience, ensuring
    uniform and robust tissue spreading.

  text: Planar germanium is currently the only semiconducting platform where high-coherence
    spin qubits and proximity-induced superconductivity have each been demonstrated.
    Recent research into spin qubits in Ge/SiGe heterostructures has focused on increasing
    the thickness of the SiGe capping layer, reporting improvements in the electrostatic
    noise levels. Meanwhile, heterostructures with thinner capping layers remain rather
    unexplored, despite the potential advantages for proximity-induced superconductivity.
    Here, we study a Ge/SiGe heterostructure with a thin SiGe cap d - 4nm and investigate
    its viability to host low-noise quantum dots. To keep the thermal budget compatible
    with superconducting layers, low-temperature oxide deposition processes were developed
    and implemented for the gate dielectrics. The charge noise level of the fabricated
    devices is estimated to be 1.8  +- 1.0 μeV/ square HZ⁠, comparable to devices
    fabricated on shallow heterostructures (⁠ d - 20nm⁠) with high-temperature deposited
    oxides. Low charge noise levels, together with the straightforward integration
    of superconductors, make this heterostructure an attractive platform for prototyping
    hybrid semiconducting–superconducting devices.

  text: Nanocrystal superlattices are commonly formed by changing concentration, solvent
    conditions, or particle surface chemistry. Although effective, these approaches
    alter multiple contributions to the interparticle potential simultaneously, making
    it difficult to isolate the interactions responsible for ordering or to control
    assembly in chemically complex environments. Here, we show that oligomeric species
    present in a nanocrystal reaction medium drive superlattice formation through
    a depletion mechanism. Using PbTe nanocrystals as a model system, we identify
    Pb–oleate oligomers in the crude reaction mixture, characterize their solution
    structure, and quantify their contribution to the interparticle potential, establishing
    depletion as the dominant short-range interaction governing spontaneous body-centered
    cubic superlattice formation. We then confirm the depletion origin of ordering
    by showing that varying depletant concentration predictably shifts the order–disorder
    boundary and produces a thermally reversible transition between dispersed and
    ordered states ─ behavior that is inconsistent with van der Waals or ligand-mediated
    mechanisms but is a direct consequence of depletion control. Having established
    and validated the mechanism, we demonstrate that the same depletion framework
    can be deliberately activated in purified dispersions and transferred across nanocrystal
    systems of different composition and shape, including anisotropic and binary assemblies.
    These results establish precursor-derived depletion as a general and chemically
    grounded mechanism for nanocrystal superlattice formation, and show that collective
    ordering can be programmed through the surrounding medium rather than through
    particle surface modification.

  text: 'Despite the functional diversity of over 100 causal genes1,2,3, phenotypic
    convergence across models may reveal common neurobiological processes in autism
    spectrum disorder (ASD). Here we profiled 251 samples from 11 monogenic mouse
    models of ASD using single-nucleus multi-omic sequencing across three developmental
    stages, both sexes and two brain regions. Despite genetic heterogeneity, ASD-linked
    mutations converged on perturbations of the radial glial cell lineage. These alterations
    reflect a transient developmental delay rather than lasting lineage misspecification
    and resolve by postnatal stages. Molecularly, the largest transcriptional differences
    emerged in neurons at early postnatal stages. These changes included downregulation
    of synaptic and ion channel-related genes, consistent with homeostatic adaptation
    or delayed maturation. Network analysis showed molecular convergence across models
    within each developmental stage, suggesting that diverse mutations linked to ASD
    impinge on common, stage-specific processes. Convergence becomes less pronounced
    by postnatal day 14, highlighting the dynamic nature of ASD-associated changes.
    Cross-genotype heterogeneity is superimposed on stage-specific effects. Electrophysiology
    corroborated this pattern: mutants generally showed altered neuronal excitability
    and synaptic properties with model-specific nuances. Our study also highlighted
    sex-specific gene expression alterations, with female mice often displaying larger
    effect sizes than male mice. Together, our findings provide a comprehensive view
    of developmental cellular and molecular dynamics across models of ASD.'

  text: Protein conformational energy landscapes are shaped not only by intramolecular
    interactions but also by their environment. In protein crystals and protein–protein
    complexes, intermolecular contacts alter this energy landscape, but the exact
    nature of this alteration is difficult to decipher. Understanding how the crystal
    lattice affects protein dynamics is crucial for crystallography-based studies
    of motion, yet its influence on collective motions remains unclear. Aromatic ring
    flips in the hydrophobic core represent sensitive probes of such dynamics. Here,
    we compare the kinetics of aromatic ring flips in the protein GB1 in crystals,
    in complex with its binding partner IgG, and in solution, combining advanced isotope
    labelling with quantitative NMR methods. We show that rings in the core flip nearly
    a thousand times less frequently in crystals than in solution. Enhanced-sampling
    molecular dynamics simulations, based on a crystal structure of a GB1 variant
    reported in this work, reproduce these elevated barriers and reveal how the crystal
    restrains motions.

  text: Silver selenide (Ag2Se) is a promising near-room-temperature thermoelectric
    material, but its narrow stoichiometric window and β–α phase transition complicate
    reproducible microstructure control. Here, we present a mismatch-assisted microstructure
    engineering strategy in which Ag2Se particles are treated with polyanionic ZnSe
    complexes and consolidated through the β–α transition to introduce ZnSe nanoprecipitates,
    Ag2Se/ZnSe interfaces, and local strain fields. The crystallographic mismatch
    between ZnSe and Ag2Se, together with the Zn2+/Ag+ size difference, amplifies
    phase-transition-induced deformation and promotes high-density dislocations with
    periodic strain modulations. This defect architecture suppresses grain coarsening,
    removes excess Ag, limits Ag-interstitial formation, and reduces lattice thermal
    conductivity through lattice softening and multiscale phonon scattering. Ag2Se–4%ZnSe
    nanocomposites achieve a peak zTmax of 1.13 at 369 K and a zTavg of 1.08 from
    300 to 380 K, demonstrating mismatch-driven defect engineering through the β–α
    phase transition as a route for optimizing Ag2Se-based thermoelectrics.

  text: 'Grazing-incidence small-angle scattering (GISAS) is a relatively young technique
    with important applications in thin-film technology and untapped potential when
    it comes to 2D analysis on an absolute intensity scale. Approaching standardization
    and reference methods early is foundational for reproducibility and comparability
    across laboratories and reduction of systematic error sources. It underpins trust
    in data obtained and accelerates innovation by ensuring that scientists work from
    a common methodological baseline. Accordingly, obtaining reproducible results
    from different GISAS instruments requires an agreement on how measurements are
    performed, instruments calibrated and terms defined. To pave the way for standardization
    and reference methods, we surveyed GISAS practitioners on what comes before an
    experiment: hardware, software, sample alignment and instrument calibration. Twenty-two
    questions were designed to elucidate the state of the art, which can be used for
    the development of reference methods. Our data on 27 instruments provide the basis
    for standardization. With very few exceptions, we found laboratories prepared
    to implement future reference methods, but no consensus emerges naturally for
    sample alignment and instrument calibration. We, that is the GISAS community,
    are thus in a position to embark on the journey of standardization.'

  text: As vertebrates transitioned from water to land, locomotion shifted from undulatory
    swimming to limb-based movement. How spinal circuits and their cell types evolved
    to support this transition remains unclear. We leverage frog metamorphosis, which
    recapitulates this transition within a single organism, to define how spinal circuits
    generate aquatic versus terrestrial motor patterns. At swim stages, spinal architecture
    is uniform, with a transcriptionally and anatomically homogeneous motor and interneurons.
    As limbs develop and their movement complexifies, spinal circuits expand in neuron
    number and subtype diversity. This expansion is most pronounced for V1 inhibitory
    neurons, which increase ∼70-fold and diversify into transcriptionally distinct
    subtypes. Disrupting transcription factors defining emerging motor and V1 populations
    reveals molecular segregation between swim and limb circuits, highlighting the
    role of subtype diversity in motor coordination. A multifold increase in inhibitory
    neuron diversity thus underlies the tail-to-limb locomotor transition, providing
    a framework for spinal circuit adaptation during vertebrate evolution.

  text: RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) methodologies have evolved rapidly, offering powerful
    tools to study gene expression, transcriptome dynamics, and molecular mechanisms
    in various biological contexts. However, the complexity of these approaches poses
    challenges in data interpretation, sensitivity, and applicability. This chapter
    provides a comprehensive overview of RNA-seq methodologies, highlighting their
    advantages, limitations, and applications, particularly in cardiovascular research.
    Bulk RNA sequencing enables high-throughput gene expression profiling but lacks
    the resolution to capture cellular heterogeneity and spatial context. Direct RNA
    sequencing preserves native RNA modifications, offering insights into post-transcriptional
    regulation, though it remains technically challenging. Single-cell RNA sequencing
    (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) bridge these gaps by resolving transcriptomic
    complexity at the cellular level and within tissue architecture, providing crucial
    insights into disease mechanisms such as atherosclerosis. By summarizing the strengths
    and limitations of these methodologies, this chapter aims to guide researchers
    in selecting the most suitable transcriptomic approach for their studies, ultimately
    advancing precision medicine and biomarker discovery in cardiovascular disease.

  text: 'Vertebrates display remarkable diversity of sensorimotor behaviors, each
    adapted to distinct ecological and survival demands. This diversity raises fundamental
    questions about the evolutionary origin of motor control: do conserved spinal
    circuits underlie these behaviors, and how have they diverged across species.
    Recent studies detail spinal cell-type architecture in mammals but comparable,
    high-resolution atlases of the non-mammalian spinal cord are lacking. Here, we
    compare spinal cord cell types between fish, frogs, mice and humans, spanning
    ∼450 million years of evolution. Across species, we define highly conserved programs
    of cell type specification that segregate spinal neurons into nearly identical
    cardinal classes during development. This contrasts with adult stages, when spinal
    cell-type composition selectively diverges for excitatory neuron subpopulations.
    Using spatial transcriptomics, we localize this species divergence to the superficial,
    dorsal spinal cord, where variant neuropeptide expression defines mammalian-specific
    cell types. The most dorsal spinal cord thus emerges as a recently evolved hub
    for sensory integration in mammals, a neospinal cord analogous to the neocortex.</jats:p>'
