In a study published in Nature Communications, a research team led by Prof. ZHU Tao from the University of Science and Technology of China of the Chinese Academy of Sciences unveiled the role of CSC-regulated phenotypic plasticity in metastatic colonization.

Researchers led by SUN Qinmiao from the Institute of Zoology and CHEN Dahua from Yunnan University discovered that Argonaute proteins on the endoplasmic reticulum play a novel role in regulating protein quality control via lipid-mediated phase separation, substantially coupling post-transcriptional gene silencing and protein quality control processes to ensure efficient gene silencing.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) demonstrated that MtGSTF7, a TT19-like glutathione S -transferase gene, was activated by the anthocyanin regulator LAP1 to determine the accumulation of anthocyanins, but not proanthocyanins, in Medicago truncatula, a model legume plant.

Dr. HU Li and his colleagues from the Institute of Psychology, together with researchers from the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (Italy), University College London (United Kingdom), and Shenzhen University, investigated the neural correlates underlying the translation of sustained nociceptive inputs into subjective pain experience.

A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Xiangyang from the Institute of Psychology aimed to compare the similarities and heterogeneity of cognitive impairment among heroin and methamphetamine-dependent individuals, and to explore the correlation between cognitive impairment and drug use behavior.

A group of researchers at the Suzhou Institute of Biomedical Engineering and Technology (SIBEBT) and Pennsylvania State University introduce arch-arranged mesh pattern stretchable microstrip antennas with a layered architecture.

Researchers led by Prof. XU Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology recently revealed the evolutionarily conservative and non-conservative regulatory networks during primate interneuron development by single-cell RNA and Assay for Targeting Accessible-Chromatin sequencing.

GAO Caixia's team from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB), together with collaborators, has recently developed a more efficient and improved plant prime editing system, Engineered Plant Prime Editor (ePPE).

Researchers led by Prof. ZHOU Yihua from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) recently reported an identification of unprecedented xylan nanocompartments at the pit borders of xylem vessels in rice and Arabidopsis using super-resolution confocal microscopy.

Researchers from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology recently revealed the important role of Cav3.1-driven burst firing of dmVMH neurons in controlling anxiety-like behavior and energy expenditure after chronic stress.

Supervised by Prof. ZHANG Xiujun and research assistant ZHANG Aidi, XIONG Yuhong from the Wuhan Botanical Garden analyzed Multiple Organellar RNA Editing Factor (MORF) family in Kiwifruit and its roles in chloroplast RNA editing and pathogens stress.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden reported a new Paleogene fossil flora from northern Vietnam. The researchers described the floristic components of fossil assemblages from the Dong Ho Formation, Hoanh Bo Basin, Ha Long City (former Hoanh Bo District), Quang Ninh Province, northern Vietnam, and discussed the floristic affinity of those assemblages to other Cenozoic floras from southern China.
