This study presents an important finding on the molecular mechanism for transduction of environmentally induced polyphenism. The evidence supporting the claims of the author is solid. This paper would ...

The instability and/or plasticity of immune cells are known to influence their functions, which would further regulate the balance between tolerance and autoimmunity. The plasticity of regulatory T ...

These observations lead us to conclude that the DNA methylation changes may influence sexual phenotypic plasticity as a response to the environmental conditions. Our study provides new insights into ...

Mitochondria in different parts of these neurons vary in structure and function, with those at the outermost synapses relying on the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) for plasticity. Deleting the ...

Phenotypic plasticity, or adaptability, of a cell determines its ability to survive and function within changing cellular environments. Changes in the mechanical environment, ranging from stiffness of ...

We measured the dynamics of fitness changes over time, finding repeatable patterns of declining adaptability. Sequencing revealed that this phenotypic adaptation is coupled with a steady accumulation ...
