Article Abstract
Intelligence is highly heritable. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have shown that thousands of alleles contribute to variation in intelligence with small effect sizes. Polygenic scores (PGS), which combine these effects into one genetic summary measure, are increasingly used to investigate polygenic effects in independent samples. Whereas PGS explain a considerable amount of variance in intelligence, it is largely unknown how brain structure and function mediate this relationship. Here, we show that individuals with higher PGS for educational attainment and intelligence had higher scores on cognitive tests, larger surface area, and more efficient fiber connectivity derived by graph theory. Fiber network efficiency as well as the surface of brain areas partly located in parieto-frontal regions were found to mediate the relationship between PGS and cognitive performance. These findings are a crucial step forward in decoding the neurogenetic underpinnings of intelligence, as they identify specific regional networks that link polygenic predisposition to intelligence.

Oxidative stress induces a wide range of cellular damage, often causing disease and cell death. While many organisms are susceptible to the effects of oxidative stress, haloarchaea have adapted to be highly resistant. Several aspects of the haloarchaeal oxidative stress response have been characterized; however, little is known about the impacts of oxidative stress at the translation level.

Aims: This study aimed to enhance the osteoinductive potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) by integrating them into a nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAp)-enriched hydrogel scaffold for bone regeneration applications.
Materials & Methods: EVs were isolated from naïve and osteogenically primed MSCs and characterized for morphology, cargo content, and cytocompatibility. Their uptake and osteoinductive activity were assessed using MC3T3 cells within a 3D interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel.

Efficient DNA delivery is essential for genetic manipulation of mycobacteria and for dissecting their physiology, pathogenesis, and drug resistance. Although electroporation enables transformation efficiencies exceeding 10⁵ CFU per µg DNA in and , it remains highly inefficient in many nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), including . Here, we discovered that NTM such as exhibit exceptional tolerance to ultra-high electric field strengths and that hypertonic preconditioning partially protects cells from electroporation-induced damage.

We introduce an efficient method, TTN-HEOM, for exactly calculating the open quantum dynamics for driven quantum systems interacting with highly structured bosonic baths by combining the tree tensor network (TTN) decomposition scheme with the bexcitonic generalization of the numerically exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM). The method yields a series of quantum master equations for all core tensors in the TTN that efficiently and accurately capture the open quantum dynamics for non-Markovian environments to all orders in the system-bath interaction. These master equations are constructed based on the time-dependent Dirac-Frenkel variational principle, which isolates the optimal dynamics for the core tensors given the TTN ansatz.

Organic battery electrode materials represent a sustainable alternative compared to most inorganic electrodes, yet challenges persist regarding their energy density and cycling stability. In this work, a new organic electrode material is described, which is obtained via ionothermal polymerization of low-cost starting materials, melem (2,5,8-triamino-tri-s-triazine) and perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA). The resulting networked polymer Melem-PDI exhibits favorable thermal and electrochemical properties, prompting investigation into its performance as a positive electrode material in rechargeable lithium and magnesium batteries.
