The #MIT report on AI is worth reading - it is well nuanced, thinks about where AI might have positive use cases in HE as well as negative ones, and actually suggests an emphasis on personal development and human contact as a solution. #academicsky aiandeducation.mit.edu/re…

Why do some neurons die in #neurodegeneration while closely related neighbors survive? This Essay by Dong Won Kim argues that disease resistance may depend on maintenance of a neuron's #cell identity and proposes tests of the model. 🧪 #AcademicSky plos.io/4y7cGbA
Reversible cell-state remodeling vs. identity-maintenance failure in adult neurons.
An adult neuron with stable subtype identity (left) depends on continued operation of four interrelated regulatory components, shown in the inset legend: (1) identity transcription factors; (2) accessible identity enhancers; (3) coherent terminal effector gene modules; and (4) active repression of alternative gene programs belonging to other cell types. Under stress (metabolic, proteostatic, inflammatory, or pathological), the neuron can follow one of two trajectories. (A) In reversible cell-state remodeling, the neuron mounts adaptive responses such as the heat-shock response and the unfolded protein response (UPR), while identity transcription factor activity, enhancer accessibility, terminal effector modules, and repression of alternative programs remain intact. When the stress is removed, the neuron returns to its prior identity state. (B) In identity-maintenance failure, similar stress responses occur, but the regulatory machinery that stabilizes subtype identity itself weakens: identity transcription factor activity falls, identity enhancers lose accessibility, terminal effector modules decohere, and repression of alternative or neighboring-cell programs (orange) fails, allowing those programs to be expressed. After sustained disruption of this machinery, return to the prior identity state may be incomplete, delayed, or unstable even after the initiating stress is removed (broken recovery arrow), and degeneration may follow. The stress-response components are shown at comparable intensity in both panels to emphasize that the framework concerns identity-regulatory outcomes under matched stress exposure, not differences in stress response itself.

Pathogenic bacteria in the larval #fly gut can 'prime' the adult gustatory system to recognize bacterial peptidoglycans, but how? This study identifies Uracil as the bacteria-derived cue and characterizes a larval #sensory pathway required for priming the adult. 🧪 #AcademicSky plos.io/4hK9T1R
Priming model: Larval exposure to bacteria is mandatory.
(A) Graphical representation of the priming model: adults derived from larvae raised without bacterial cohabitation do not reject sucrose + PGN mixtures. In contrast, adults from larvae cohabiting with bacteria in conventional media are attracted to sucrose but reject sucrose + PGN, a response dependent on larval Gr66a+ neurons with functional TrpA1 and adult ppk23+ cells.
