摘要:In this Review, we explore natural product antibiotics that do more than simply inhibit an active site of an essential enzyme. We review these compounds to provide inspiration for the design of much-needed new antibacterial agents, and examine the complex mechanisms that have evolved to effectively target bacteria, including covalent binders, inhibitors of resistance, compounds that utilize self-promoted entry, those that evade resistance, prodrugs, target corrupters, inhibitors of 'undruggabl...

摘要:Changes in the amount of daylight (photoperiod) alter physiology and behaviour(1,2). Adaptive responses to seasonal photoperiods are vital to all organisms-dysregulation associates with disease, including affective disorders(3) and metabolic syndromes(4). The circadian rhythm circuitry is implicated in such responses(5,6), yet little is known about the precise cellular substrates that underlie phase synchronization to photoperiod change. Here we identify a brain circuit and system of axon bran...

摘要:Subtropical gyre (STG) depth and strength are controlled by wind stress curl and surface buoyancy forcing(1,2). Modern hydrographic data reveal that the STG extends to a depth of about 1 km in the Northwest Atlantic, with its maximum depth defined by the base of the subtropical thermocline. Despite the likelihood of greater wind stress curl and surface buoyancy loss during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM)(3), previous work suggests minimal change in the depth of the glacial STG(4). Here we show ...

摘要:Gene replacement using adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors is a promising therapeutic approach for many diseases(1,2). However, this therapeutic modality is challenged by the packaging capacity of AAVs (approximately 4.7 kilobases)(3), limiting its application for disorders involving large coding sequences, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, with a 14 kilobase messenger RNA. Here we developed a new method for expressing large dystrophins by utilizing the protein trans-splicing mechanism med...

摘要:A single dose of psilocybin, a psychedelic that acutely causes distortions of space-time perception and ego dissolution, produces rapid and persistent therapeutic effects in human clinical trials(1-4). In animal models, psilocybin induces neuroplasticity in cortex and hippocampus(5-8). It remains unclear how human brain network changes relate to subjective and lasting effects of psychedelics. Here we tracked individual-specific brain changes with longitudinal precision functional mapping (roug...
