On the neurological basis of cheating/dishonest behavior affected by social normalization and conformity, very a propos to current political climate

Immoral behavior can be contagious. This #fMRI study by Benistant, Dreher &co shows that dishonest contexts lead to learned valuation biases and increased cheating, engaging the lPFC; while the pSTS encodes others’ cheating behavior. 🧪 #AcademicSky #morality plos.io/44jIaPc

A painting by Georges de La Tour, "The Dice Players", described by the authors as a seventeenth-century scene of chance and suspected deception. People stand around a table playing a dice game, while the obscured lighting source casts stark shadows. The painting is from c. 1650–1651. Preston Park Museum & Grounds / Wikimedia Commons.

RNA is more than genetic information: it can be a tool for cellular architects. In our new paper, we engineer RNA motifs to physically reorganize intracellular space in living mammalian cells. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Kudos to @nadinelaguette.bsky.social team and all co-authors on this nice paper where our lab had a modest contribution! @viroscope.bsky.social 🔥

Vila, Messaoud-Nacer, Taffoni, @nadinelaguette.bsky.social et al show that DNA-PKcs, a major DNA damage response actor, interacts w/ cyclic dinucleotides through its kinase domain, ensuring CDN-associated signal termination, while CDNs inhibit DNA-PKcs catalytic activity rupress.org/jem/article/...

The Trojan Horse is real, and it’s microscopic! 🐴🦠 Our paper is out today in @cellcellpress.bsky.social! We discovered that deltaviruses physically hide INSIDE helper viruses to sneak into new cells. And to prove it, we had to image them from every angle. 🧵👇 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Deltaviruses spread through a viral Trojan Horse

Hepatitis D-like satellite viruses, known as deltaviruses, have been recently discovered in a wide range of animals. These viruses are thought to expr…

We found a viral Trojan Horse: a virus can hide inside another virus.This one surprised us: deltaviruses don’t just borrow a helper virus. They can travel inside it. A literal Trojan Horse “virus-in-a-virus” route into cells. 🤯 Kudos to 1st author @viroscope.bsky.social and co-authors !
