1. Autoimmunity: Antigen-specific immunotherapy
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v530/n7591/full/nature17300.html
Abstract
Nanoparticles coated with fragments of the body's own proteins are shown to induce T cells of the immune system to adopt regulatory functions that suppress autoimmune reactions involving these self-antigens.
2.Cosmology: Home of a fast radio burst
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v530/n7591/full/530427a.html
Abstract
Our understanding of fast radio bursts — intense pulses of radio waves — and their use as cosmic probes promises to be transformed now that one burst has been associated with a galaxy of known distance from Earth.
3.Climate science: Hidden trends in the ocean carbon sink
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v530/n7591/full/530426a.html
Abstract
Simulations of the flux of atmospheric carbon dioxide into the ocean show that changes in flux associated with human activities are currently masked by natural climate variations, but will be evident in the near future.
4. Palaeoanthropology: What teeth tell us
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v530/n7591/full/530425a.html
Abstract
Models based on developmental mechanisms described in mice and shared by most mammals are shown to accurately predict tooth size in extinct hominins, and can explain the small third molars in our species.
5.Epigenetics: A new methyl mark on messengers
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v530/n7591/full/530423a.html
Abstract
The presence of an N^1 methyl group on adenine bases in DNA and RNA was thought to be a form of damage. Results now show that it also occurs at specific sites in messenger RNAs, where it affects protein expression.
