A blueprint for tumor-infiltrating B cells across human cancers | Science (Fr, 03 Mai 2024)
B lymphocytes are essential mediators of humoral immunity and play multiple roles in human cancer. To decode the functions of tumor-infiltrating B cells, we generated a B cell blueprint encompassing single-cell transcriptome, B cell–receptor repertoire, ...

A single cell atlas of sexual development in Plasmodium falciparum | Science (Fri, 03 May 2024)
The developmental decision made by malaria parasites to become sexual underlies all malaria transmission. Here, we describe a rich atlas of short- and long-read single-cell transcriptomes of over 37,000 Plasmodium falciparum cells across ...

CDK4/6 activity is required during G2 arrest to prevent stress-induced endoreplication | Science (Fri, 03 May 2024)
Cell cycle events are coordinated by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) to ensure robust cell division. CDK4/6 and CDK2 regulate the growth 1 (G1) to synthesis (S) phase transition of the cell cycle by responding to mitogen signaling, promoting E2F ...

Locally narrow droplet size distributions are ubiquitous in stratocumulus clouds | Science (Thu, 02 May 2024)
Marine stratocumulus clouds are the “global reflectors,” sharply contrasting with the underlying dark ocean surface and exerting a net cooling on Earth’s climate. The magnitude of this cooling remains uncertain in part owing to the averaged ...

Noncharismatic species also need protection | Science (Thu, 02 May 2024)
Global biodiversity decline is a pressing environmental challenge in the 21st century (1), and both international platforms, such as the United Nations Conference of the Parties (2), and regional development plans [e.g., (3)] focus on biodiversity conservation. However, because of the public appeal of charismatic species, research resources are predominantly invested in birds and mammals (4) and often exclude noncharismatic species, such as fish, insects, and plants. Contrary to perceptions, the ecological and economic consequences of noncharismatic species are often substantial. Researchers must study noncharismatic species to inform balanced biodiversity goals (5).

Protect Pakistan’s otters | Science (Thu, 02 May 2024)
Pakistan is home to two otter species, the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) and the smooth-coated otter (Lutrogale perspicillata). Two decades ago, these species thrived in habitats across Pakistan, but now they are limited to isolated patches in their range (1), are classified as Near Threatened in Pakistan (2), and are listed in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) (3). Pakistan must take steps to protect otters.
