TL;DR: This paper used metabolic isotope labeling in APPNL-G-F knock-in mice together with mass spectrometry imaging to monitor the earliest seeds of Aβ deposition through ongoing plaque development, and showed that formation of structurally distinct plaques is associated with differential Aβ peptide deposition.

TL;DR: Amoebocytes play a vital role for the assimilation and translocation of nutrients in Cassiopea, providing an interesting new model for studies of metabolic interactions in photosymbiotic marine organisms.

TL;DR: The imbrication of microscopic patches of aragonite within a calcitic zone suggests the occurrence of very fast physiological changes in these taxa.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a high sensitivity, low blank technique to determine U-series ages in small quantities (70 +/- 15 mg) of modern and near modern calcareous skeletons using MC-ICP-MS (MultiCollector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer).

TL;DR: In dinoflagellate symbionts, DNA synthesis was systematically higher than coral host gastrodermis, especially in planula and early metamorphosis, however, the symbiont to host cell ratio remained constant, indicating successive post-mitotic control mechanisms by the host of its dinosymbiotic density in early life stages, increasingly shifting to apoptosis in the growing primary polyp.
