Deconstructing the neural circuit underlying social hierarchy in mice.

Social competition determines hierarchical social status, which profoundly influences animals' behavior and health. The dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) plays a fundamental role in regulating social competitions, but it was unclear how the dmPFC orchestrates win- and lose-related behaviors through its downstream neural circuits. Here, through whole-brain c-Fos mapping, fiber photometry, and optogenetics- or chemogenetics-based manipulations, we identified anatomically segregated win- and lose-related neural pathways downstream of the dmPFC in mice.

Bioethics transformed: 40 years of the value of life.

Camb Q Healthc Ethics

December 2024

Durham Law School, Palatine Centre, Durham, UK.

This article examines the evolution of bioethics over the past four decades since the publication of John Harris' seminal work, "The Value of Life" (1985). It argues that while the core principles articulated by Harris remain relevant, bioethics has undergone significant transformation across four key domains. First, the expanding frontiers of biotechnology have necessitated engagement with complex issues beyond individual clinical ethics.

Full on-device manipulation of olefin metathesis for precise manufacturing.

Nat Nanotechnol

November 2024

Beijing National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences, National Biomedical Imaging Centre, College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering, Peking University, Beijing, People's Republic of China.

Olefin metathesis, as a powerful metal-catalysed carbon-carbon bond-forming method, has achieved considerable progress in recent years. However, the complexity originating from multicomponent interactions has long impeded a complete mechanistic understanding of olefin metathesis, which hampers further optimization of the reaction. Here, we clarify both productive and hidden degenerate pathways of ring-closing metathesis by focusing on one individual catalyst, using a sensitive single-molecule electrical detection platform.

Article Synopsis
  • - Paralympic cross-country sit-skiing uses specialized sledges and involves athletes classified by functional abilities, employing a double poling technique to generate speed while sitting in different positions based on impairment.
  • - A study analyzed muscle activation patterns in able-bodied athletes using a treadmill in three sitting positions—knee-high, knee-low, and neutral—while measuring pole forces and muscle activity through surface EMG.
  • - Results indicated that muscle activation varies by individual; the knee-low position was found to be the most efficient for force application, while the next phase of research will focus on impaired athletes to deepen understanding of the poling movement's neurophysiology.
