Galeaspid anatomy and the origin of vertebrate paired appendages

Articulated remains of Tujiaaspis vividus reveal that galeaspids—extinct jawless vertebrates—had precursors to paired pectoral fins that consisted of paired, continuous pectoral–pelvic lateral fins that passively generated lift.

Modulation of tissue repair by regeneration enhancer elements

An injury-dependent enhancer element is identified that activates gene expression in regenerating zebrafish tissues and can be engineered into DNA constructs that increase tissue regenerative capacity; the element is also active in injured mouse tissue.

Sequencing of the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) genome provides insights into vertebrate evolution

Jeramiah Smith, Weiming Li and colleagues report the whole-genome sequence of the sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, representing a vertebrate lineage diverged from humans ~500 million years ago. Their analyses define key evolutionary events in vertebrate lineages and provide evidence for two whole-genome duplication events occurring before the divergence of the ancestral lamprey and jawed vertebrate (gnathostome) lineages.

Disorders of consciousness after acquired brain injury: the state of the science

Disorders of consciousness (DOC) present clinical challenges of diagnosis and treatment, but also provide unique opportunities for fundamental scientific research into the nature of human consciousness. Giacino et al. review recent advances in the neurobiology, diagnosis and treatment of DOC, including the use of novel neuroimaging and electrophysiological assessments. They also discuss the medicolegal and ethical issues surrounding these advances that will influence the medical care of patients with DOC.

Unexpected species diversity in electric eels with a description of the strongest living bioelectricity generator

A single species of electric eel, Electrophorus electricus, has been described. Here, de Santana et al. show that there are three major lineages of Electrophorus distributed across Greater Amazonia and describe two new species, one with a much stronger electric discharge than was previously known.

Continuous shifts in the active set of spinal interneurons during changes in locomotor speed

The authors here show that two completely different classes of spinal premotor interneurons drive motoneurons during slow and fast swimming of zebrafish larvae. As the fish accelerate, the 'slow' interneurons are progressively silenced, while the 'fast' interneurons take over, and vice versa.

Loss-of-function mutations in UDP-Glucose 6-Dehydrogenase cause recessive developmental epileptic encephalopathy

UDP-glucuronic acid is a component of the extracellular matrix. Here, the authors report biallelic variants in the gene encoding UDP-Glucose 6-Dehydrogenase (UGDH) in individuals affected by developmental epileptic encephalopathies that impair UGDH stability, oligomerization, or enzymatic activity in vitro.

A topographic map of recruitment in spinal cord

Electrophysiology and in vivo imaging in larval zebrafish reveal a systematic relationship between the location of a spinal neuron and the minimal swimming frequency at which the neuron is active. This suggests an unexpected pattern of organization within zebrafish spinal cord that underlies the production of movements of varying speeds.

Gene regulatory programmes of tissue regeneration

The capacity to regenerate tissue varies across different species and tissue types. The poor regenerative capacity of organs such as the heart and nervous system contributes to the aetiology of a number of serious diseases, including heart failure and Alzheimer disease. In this Review, Goldman and Poss discuss how genetic programmes of regeneration are regulated and how the control mechanisms might be adapted to treat human disease.
