Single-cell profiling of penta- and tetradactyl mouse limb buds identifies mesenchymal progenitors controlling digit numbers and identities by Victorio Palacio, Anna Pancho, Angela Morabito, Jonas Malkmus, Zhisong He, Geoffrey Soussi, Rolf Zeller, Barbara Treutlein, Aimée Zuniga

“…Distal-autopodial LMPs (dLMP) express signature genes required for autopod and digit development, and alterations affecting the dLMP population size prefigure the changes in digit numbers that characterize specific congenital malformations. A second, peripheral LMP (pLMP) population is anteriorly biased and reduction/loss of its asymmetric distribution underlies the loss of middle digit asymmetry and identities in Grem1 tetradactyl and pig limb buds. pLMPs depend on BMP activity, while dLMPs require GREM1-mediated BMP antagonism. …”

Walking coral: Complex phototactic mobility in the free-living coral Cycloseris cyclolites. by Brett M Lewis, David J Suggett, Peter J Prentis, Luke D Nothdurft

“…High-resolution time-laps captured the biomechanics of forward motion that appeared driven by three key factors: tissue inflation, which increased contact surface area for lift and friction; the ventral foot/pads, adjusting substrate interaction/friction; and the contraction and twisting of lateral peripheral tissues, which propelled the coral forward in a coordinated manner resembling the pulsed swimming motion of jellyfish. …”

Letter Position Dyslexia in Arabic: From Form to Position by Naama Friedmann, Manar Haddad-Hanna

“…This study reports the reading of 11 Arabic-speaking individuals with letter position dyslexia (LPD), and the effect of letter form on their reading errors. LPD is a peripheral dyslexia caused by a selective deficit to letter position encoding in the orthographic-visual analyzer, which results in migration of letters within words, primarily of middle letters. …”
