While a consensus is yet to be reached on the aetiology of the biological activities of …             CORRIGENDUM: Automated single-cell motility analysis on a chip using lensfree microscopy ▶     Ivan Pushkarsky, Yunbo Liu, Westbrook Weaver et al.                 Absorption-assisted mode transformation in butterfly compound eyes ▶     Jaeyoun Kim     The ommatidium of the butterfly's afocal apposition eye exhibits angular performance that can only be achieved by transforming the diffraction pattern of its corneal lens into the …             Symbolic regression of generative network models ▶     Telmo Menezes, Camille Roth     Networks are a powerful abstraction with applicability to a variety of scientific fields. Models explaining their morphology and growth processes permit a wide range of phenomena …             Optical Assay of Erythrocyte Function in Banked Blood ▶     Basanta Bhaduri, Mikhail Kandel, Carlo Brugnara et al.     Stored red blood cells undergo numerous biochemical, structural, and functional changes, commonly referred to as storage lesion. How much these changes impede the ability of …             A Gigantic, Exceptionally Complete Titanosaurian Sauropod Dinosaur from Southern Patagonia, Argentina ▶     Kenneth J. Lacovara, Matthew C. Lamanna, Lucio M. Ibiricu et al.     Titanosaurian sauropod dinosaurs were the most diverse and abundant large-bodied herbivores in the southern continents during the final 30 million years of the Mesozoic Era. …             Anomalous altered expressions of downstream gene-targets in TP53-miRNA pathways in head and neck cancer ▶     Sanga Mitra, Nupur Mukherjee, Smarajit Das et al.     The prevalence of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, HNSCC, continues to grow. Change in the expression of TP53 in HNSCC affects its downstream miRNAs and their gene targets, …             Site-2 protease responds to oxidative stress and regulates oxidative injury in mammalian cells ▶     Yong Gu, Waisin Lee, Jiangang Shen     Site-2 protease (S2P) is a membrane-embedded protease that site-specifically cleaves intramembrane transcription factors, a necessary step for their maturation. S2P is well known …             Target contact and exploration strategies in haptic search ▶     Vonne van Polanen, Wouter M. Bergmann Tiest, Astrid M. L. Kappers     In a haptic search task, one has to detect the presence of a target among distractors using the sense of touch. A salient target can be detected faster than a non-salient target. …             Identification and characterization of novel serum microRNA candidates from deep sequencing in cervical cancer patients ▶     Li Juan, Hong-li Tong, Pengjun Zhang et al.     Small non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in cancer development and progression, and serum profiles of cervical cancer patients may be useful for identifying novel miRNAs. …             Microwave & Magnetic (M2) Proteomics Reveals CNS-Specific Protein Expression Waves that Precede Clinical Symptoms of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis ▶     Itay Raphael, Swetha Mahesula, Anjali Purkar et al.     Central nervous system-specific proteins (CSPs), transported across the damaged blood-brain-barrier (BBB) to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood (serum), might be promising …             Earthquakes trigger the loss of groundwater biodiversity ▶     Diana M. P. Galassi, Paola Lombardo, Barbara Fiasca et al.     Earthquakes are among the most destructive natural events. The 6 April 2009, 6.3-Mw earthquake in L'Aquila (Italy) markedly altered the karstic Gran Sasso Aquifer (GSA) …             Expansion of stochastic expression repertoire by tandem duplication in mouse Protocadherin-α cluster ▶     Ryosuke Kaneko, Manabu Abe, Takahiro Hirabayashi et al.     Tandem duplications are concentrated within the Pcdh cluster throughout vertebrate evolution and as copy number variations (CNVs) in human populations, but the effects of tandem …             The vacuolar-sorting protein Snf7 is required for export of virulence determinants in members of the Cryptococcus neoformans complex. ▶     Rodrigo M. da C. Godinho, Juliana Crestani, Lívia Kmetzsch et al.     Fungal pathogenesis requires a number of extracellularly released virulence factors. Recent studies demonstrating that most fungal extracellular molecules lack secretory tags …             Analysis of genes contributing to plant-beneficial functions in plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria and related Proteobacteria ▶     Maxime Bruto, Claire Prigent-Combaret, Daniel Muller et al.     The positive effects of root-colonizing bacteria cooperating with plants lead to improved growth and/or health of their eukaryotic hosts. Some of these Plant Growth-Promoting …             Resting-sate functional reorganization of the rat limbic system following neuropathic injury ▶     M. N. Baliki, P. C. Chang, A. T. Baria et al.     Human brain imaging studies from various clinical cohorts show that chronic pain is associated with large-scale brain functional and morphological reorganization. However, how the …             High-Resolution Visualisation of the States and Pathways Sampled in Molecular Dynamics Simulations ▶     Nicolas Blöchliger, Andreas Vitalis, Amedeo Caflisch     We have recently developed a scalable algorithm for ordering the instantaneous observations of a dynamical system evolving continuously in time.
